Harry: The Interview, 9 pm, ITV1 and ITVX
Harry: The Interview is a new sit-down chat with Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex. Across the hour, Harry is set to talk at length with journalist and ITV News at Ten presenter, Tom Bradby. In the chat, Harry will talk in-depth about his personal relationships and reveal some never-before-heard details surrounding the death of his mother, Lady Diana.

Happy Valley season 3, 9 pm, BBC One
Catherine (Sarah Lancashire) faces serious fears about her troubled grandson, Ryan (Rhys Connah), as the hit drama continues with its third and final series. Catherine has spent the past few years believing she’s kept Ryan safely away from his psychopath father, Tommy Lee Royce (James Norton). But Ryan hasn’t been entirely truthful about his relationship with his dad, and the action picks up when Catherine discovers a horrifying truth that knocks her sideways and sets her on a collision course with her old nemesis. Meanwhile, we’re loving Trigger Point’s Mark Stanley as Ryan’s menacing PE teacher Rob Hepworth, who gets even more sinister this week. ★★★★★ HD
His Dark Materials season 3, 7 pm, BBC One, iPlayer (box set)
Well, the fabulous fantasy drama is living up to its name, as events get a lot darker when Lyra (Dafne Keen) and Will (Amir Wilson) try to make their way to the Land of the Dead, where Lyra wants to find her late friend Roger, as she believes he needs her help. However, getting there requires a terrible and deeply emotional sacrifice… Meanwhile, the ever-brilliant Mrs Coulter (Ruth Wilson) is determined to stop the evil Magisterium from unleashing their dastardly plot against Lyra, but her mission takes some risky turns. And look out for an encounter with an incredible beast as intrepid scientist Mary (Simone Kirby) continues her own journey. ★★★★ CC

With its retro soundtrack, tearful judge Keith Brymer Jones and beautiful ceramic creations, this Bake Off-style pottery competition has proved a hit and is back for a new series.

Call the Midwife, 8 pm, BBC One
It’s always lovely to see caring Sister Julienne immersing herself in a case, and this week, she grows close to mum-to-be Lilian (Lydia Larson) and her husband Ronnie (ex-EastEnders star James Alexandrou) after Lilian develops a worrying rash on her breast. Meanwhile, Lucille (Leonie Elliott) bonds with an elderly man who is losing his sight, but Cyril (Zephryn Taitte) and Phyllis are finding it difficult to raise the troubled nurse’s increasingly low spirits… However, there’s light relief when Shelagh organises the upcoming Whitsun celebrations and the event leads Sister Monica Joan to find a use for Sister Veronica’s unwelcome glut of marmalade! ★★★★ CC
