Elizabeth Taylor: A Life in Ten Pictures

9.10pm, BBC Two

This engaging series investigating the lives of enigmatic celebrities through their intimate and iconic images lands this week on Hollywood star Elizabeth Taylor. We get a glimpse into Taylor’s English childhood, before recounting her rise to fame and the roles that went on to make her one of the most recognisable faces onscreen. There is also a look at the intense public fascination surrounding her many well-documented marriages – especially to Richard Burton. Ammar Kalia

Casualty

8.30pm, BBC One

Long-suffering Faith finally loses her rag with Lev on a busy day in the department, Jan is still making bad choices and a patient full of ketamine goes missing. In amongst the drama, Dylan uses a tomato to explain the issue of women’s health being taken less seriously than men’s when Marty’s mum is brought in. Hannah Verdier

Mavericks: The Legendary Promoters of Rock

9pm, Sky Arts

With live music still a somewhat uncertain prospect, this film examining the beginnings of the rock touring industry in the 1960s and 70s is a welcome distraction. Famous faces such as Carols Santana and Jon Bon Jovi recount the promoters who masterminded their formative shows. AK

Zara & Mike: No-Nonsense Royals

9pm, Channel 5

Keeping Faith

9.10pm, BBC One

Who knew Celia Imrie could make such a menacing villain? As Rose, she continues to pile the pressure on Faith, while Osian’s case progresses to the appeals court for what Cerys concedes is a long shot. Meanwhile, ex Evan (Bradley Freegard) remains apparently undeterred by Steve’s cautionary head-butt. Ellen E Jones

The Jonathan Ross Show

9.35pm, ITV

Ahead of what we assume will be one of the most hyped fights in boxing history, Anthony Joshua is joining Jonathan to discuss the prospect of meeting Tyson Fury. Making up the numbers will be Emily Blunt touting her new Mary Poppins film and chat show trouper Alan Carr. AJ Tracey provides the music. Phil Harrison

Her, 1.25am, Film4

In a near-future LA, Joaquin Phoenix is lonely, introverted Theodore who, while breaking up with his wife, falls for his new, Scarlett Johansson-voiced computer operating system. Spike Jonze’s wry, thought-provoking satire explores the absurd possibilities of human/IT interaction, and relationships in general. Paul Howlett
