Sherwood Sunday, 9pm, BBC One. Britain’s coalmines are largely gone, but their ghostly presence lingers in the form of morbid symptoms caused by their disappearance. The first series of James Graham’s masterfully bleak Nottinghamshire drama centred on the bitterness surrounding the aftermath of the 1984-85 strike; this second run explores the crime that has filled the void left by the pit closures. When a man is shot in a drug-related dispute, events spiral and engulf a community. Meanwhile, a new pit is proposed – but who would benefit from reopening old wounds? Graham locates the personal and emotional contours of huge societal shifts, and the cast now boasts Monica Dolan, David Harewood and Robert Lindsay. Phil Harrison Death Row Dogs: Save My XL Bully 10.30pm, Channel 4 Whatever the rights and wrongs of the debate around XL bullies, it’s hard not to feel concerned for the animals themselves. This documentary speaks to the owners battling to save their bullies but also looks at the rise in abandoned pets, finding that many rescue centres are being overwhelmed by untrained and aggressive dogs. PH Big Cats 24/7 8pm, BBC Two To Botswana’s Okavango Delta, where wildlife photographer Gordon Buchanan is following the travails of a pride of lions. It’s always striking to be reminded that even for these apex predators survival is incredibly tough and hunger is a constant companion. Throw in a wildfire that threatens lions and camera crew alike, and it’s dramatic stuff. PH Holst’s The Planets at the Proms 8pm, BBC Four Horoscope fan Gustav Holst penned The Planets (“a series of mood pictures,” he said) with astrology – not astronomy – in mind. And it’s that compelling, mystical vibe that powers this performance by the Royal College of Music Symphony Orchestra, alongside Sibelius’s The Wood Nymph, and Lara Poe’s Laulut maaseudulta (Songs from the Countryside). Ali Catterall The Misinvestigations of Romesh Ranganathan 9pm, BBC Two In this two-parter, Ranganathan explores mysterious celebrity deaths, beginning with the 1996 killing of Tupac Shakur. It’s a tonally odd affair – no new light is cast but the subject matter doesn’t lend itself to comedy, either. So, as he visits Las Vegas with criminal psychologist Julia Shaw, his meanderings feel somewhat self-indulgent. PH Long Lost Family 9pm, ITV1 This week’s reunions involve the standard LLF tale of a woman whose older sibling was reluctantly given up for adoption by their young mother; and the less ordinary story of three full siblings who have never met. However, the joy, tears and politely suppressed reticence aren’t where one would expect. Jack Seale Film choice Lawrence of Arabia, 11.25am, Sky Cinema Greats Historical accuracy is sacrificed on the altar of drama in David Lean’s epic war adventure, which focuses on British officer TE Lawrence (Peter O’Toole) at the expense of the Arabs he fought alongside in their revolt against the Turks in 1916 (most of whom are not even played by Arabs). But the film was intended as a profile of a misfit who became a hero – a conflation of myth and man, bundled up in battles, betrayal and death – and as such is an exhilarating success.
