The Gilded Age
9pm, Sky Atlantic
Julian Fellowes’s New York-set costume drama continues to underwhelm in its third series. Somehow, it’s never quite racy or absorbing enough to excuse its lack of literary weight, plus some of the dialogue feels like a parody of period potboiler tropes. Ada (Cynthia Nixon) has become heavily involved in the temperance movement – which isn’t suiting Agnes (Christine Baranski) at all. Elsewhere, George’s railroad plan is in danger of hitting the buffers. Phil Harrison

Death in the Desert: The Nurse Helen Mystery
9pm, Channel 4
The death in 1979 of the British nurse Helen Smith at an expat party in Saudi Arabia had wide-ranging ramifications that are explored in this documentary. Smith’s apparent fall from a balcony was ruled an accident but was she murdered? And, with Margaret Thatcher’s government fixated on oil deals with the Saudis, did the British authorities turn a blind eye? PH
