TV tonight: a tense German crime drama based on real life murder cases
9pm, BBC Four This German drama is based on the real police investigation into two murders in 2016. When a woman goes missing on her run, a local search potentially interferes with evidence. Her body is found 72 hours later, and detectives Barbara Kramer and Thomas Riedle get on the case. But then another woman cycling home is killed. Are they connected to a murder committed four years earlier? Hollie Richardson 6.50pm, BBC One As this rollercoaster season reaches its climax, the odds seem stacked against the Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) – we last saw him tumbling in freefall. The world is being smashed to bits by wicked double act the Rani (Archie Panjabi and Anita Dobson). But will cracking open the Underverse unleash an ancient power? Graeme Virtue 8.20m, Channel 4 All aboard the world's most famous steam train – and the first to reach 100mph and circumnavigate the world – in this two-part documentary. It starts with an innovative design by Nigel Gresley, with a vision of shorter journey times and more passengers, which led to the Flying Scotsman being built in 1923. HR 9.20pm, BBC One No one is in a hurry to solve the 70-year-old cold case, but there's plenty of other fun to be had in this Australian adaptation of the novel by Liane Moriarty. Sophie and Veronika interview an attractive detective on the mainland and rifle through Alice's wardrobe, while Margie starts her first photography class. Ellen E Jones 9.30pm, BBC Two The Boss's recent trip to Britain was notable for his trenchantly expressed views on Donald Trump. This evocative documentary recalls more innocent times, focusing on a 1975 visit during which he played two shows in London in support of his Born to Run album and, according to those interviewed here, changed lives in the process. Phil Harrison 9.45pm, ITV1 The Aussie dating-gone-wrong drama continues and Birdie (Asher Keddie) is excited to take new fella Joe (David Wenham) to her best mate's wedding. When he calls to say he's having financial problems, Birdie does everything she can to help – then questions if he'll make it to the airport. HR See How They Run, 9.20pm, Channel 4 Part affectionate throwback to classic Agatha Christie, part knowing sendup, Tom George's engaging comic whodunnit is set in the wake of a murder after the 100th West End performance of The Mousetrap in 1953. The corpse is lecherous American director Leo Kopernick (Adrien Brody), who was due to film a version of the play. Sozzled Insp Stoppard (Sam Rockwell) and eager, naive PC Stalker (Saoirse Ronan) are put on the case, with a star-stuffed cast of suspects – Ruth Wilson, David Oyelowo, Reece Shearsmith, Harris Dickinson – joining in the fun.

Meryl Streep and Selena Gomez recreating some Devil Wears Prada magic is the nostalgia kick you NEED!
First things first — Meryl Streep is returning for season 5 of Only Murders in the Building. What's more, the 'announcement' per se, was made via an unmissable Devil Wears Prada reference! In a video shared yesterday by Hulu and the official page of the drama series, the Oscar-winning actor made an appearance in a video alongside Selena Gomez to celebrate her comeback to the show. In the delightfully fun clip, the duo reenacted an iconic moment from The Devil Wears Prada (2006), in which Meryl played the career-defining (at least as per pop culture) Miranda Priestly. For reference, the scene is that of Miranda critiquing Andy Sachs —played by Anne Hathaway —for lacking any and all perceptible sense of style. The scene shows Andy beginning to reply but Miranda , very characteristically, cutting her off with a sharp, stinging remark about how she wasn't really asking a question, but instead making a statement. In Meryl and Selena's video, the latter curtly, in classic Miranda-style, says, "So you're returning for season 5". Meryl having switched places to spiritually play Andy, mimics Anne's response to a T by saying, "Well, I think that depends on—". She of course is cut off quite promptly by Selena who very coldly says, "No, no, that wasn't a question". A post shared by Only Murders in the Building (@onlymurdershulu) Want that last bit of punch? The caption to the post read, "Gird your loins, Meryl is returning for Season 5! That's all". Now tell us you didn't read that out in Nigel's nifty voice. Now while Only Murders in the Building and The Devil Wears Prada have no connection besides Meryl, it is worth mentioning here that the movie has been all over the news owing to an official sequel being in the works. The Devil Wears Prada 2, which already has Meryl and Emily Blunt set to return, is eyeing a May 1 release next year. Incidentally, this will be the first Friday of May 2026, just before the first Monday of May that year, which we all know, is Met Gala day. So, 'gird your loins' indeed!
