TV tonight: Steve Coogan and Harriet Walter go head to head as Walden and Thatcher
9pm, Channel 4 James Graham's new drama questions the blurred lines between journalist and politician with this two-parter about one of the most famous political interviews of all time: Labour MP turned TV journalist Brian Walden (Steve Coogan) and prime minister Margaret Thatcher (Harriet Walter) in 1989. It begins by rewinding to when the two first met and formed an unlikely and unwise friendship. When Thatcher wins election, she starts to regret sharing too much with him. Hollie Richardson 8pm, Channel 4 The seemingly indestructible Allsopp and Spencer real estate enterprise rolls on, showing as little sign of slowing down as the UK's housing market. This time, the pair step into the middle of a domestic argument in Hamilton. Scott and Jaqui's kids have flown the nest, but the couple can't agree about their next step. Phil Harrison 9pm, BBC One Last year, an average of four people a week were stabbed to death in the UK. 'I nearly got two pulled out on me this week,' says 16-year-old Jayden, one of the people behind the statistics to whom Idris Elba speaks in this documentary. It follows the actor's campaign to end knife crime, including discussions with the king and Keir Starmer. HR 9pm, BBC Two Until 2023, the murder of 14-year-old Caroline Glachan in 1996 was one of the UK's biggest cold cases. This two-part series takes place inside the courtroom as three suspects stand trial two decades after Glachan's body was found. It speaks to her mother, Margaret McKeich, who has kept fighting for the truth. HR 9pm, ITV1 A droll episode with a delicious setup: Alphy (Rishi Nair) visits a dysfunctional manor house. It's a shame when a workaday murder intrudes on the barbed interplay between dishy Alphy, a bigoted weakling of a lord (Richard Goulding) and a dangerously randy lady (Marianne Oldham). Jack Seale 10pm, BBC Two Joe Wilkinson's and Dave Earl's midlife sitcom first aired on U&Gold now, it has found a primetime spot in which to replay.
