Disco: Soundtrack of a Revolution 10pm, BBC Two Disco is often regarded as music of pure hedonism. But this excellent series rightly posits it as deeply political, too, soundtracking growing emancipation for LGBTQ+ and Black people during the 1970s and issuing an implicit challenge to American orthodoxies in the process. In this opening episode, Nicky Siano reminisces about his early days on the scene, we learn how the US “beef crisis” facilitated disco and the illustrious Earl Young walks us through the fundamentals of disco drumming. Phil Harrison Survivor: The Finals 6pm, BBC One Just five players are left now as the endurance contest set on a Dominican beach approaches its endgame.

A tricky challenge brings a vital immunity necklace for one player – but can the other alliances hold with the £100k prize now so close? PH Strictly Come Dancing: The Final 7pm, BBC One From Angela’s limber leg to Layton’s gobsmacking pole dance, it has been a vintage Strictly year.

Hollie Richardson Building the Billion Pound Cruise Ship 8pm, Channel 4 In which a crack team of French engineers race to meet the deadline to construct one of the world’s biggest, most advanced cruise ships; that’s wrangling 42,000 tonnes of steel and assembling more than 2,500 cabins. Not to mention 13 dining areas, numerous shops, bars, and seven swimming pools … So, slightly less complex than the average Ikea build. Ali Catterall Bad Host: Hunting the Couch Surfing Predator 9pm, Sky Documentaries This week’s instalment in the three-part documentary about a couch-surfing host who assaulted and raped his guests sees a Portuguese woman begin the fightback.

Alexi Duggins Blood Actually: A Murder, They Hope Mystery 9pm, Gold Why is Johnny Vegas making a terrified dash through a snowy forest while dressed as Santa? It’s a festive edition of his and Sian Gibson’s comedy whodunnit, where a trip to a rural cottage backfires spectacularly. It’s a daft, slightly hammy, fun watch featuring more stars than a festive jumper – including Lee Mack, Rose Ayling-Ellis, Jane Horrocks, Martin Kemp and Robert Webb. Alexi Duggins Film choice Dawn of the Nugget, Netflix Aardman’s egg-streamly belated sequel to the 2000 animation is another gadget-packed treat.
