TV tonight: a tough look inside Crowborough asylum camp

Inside the Asylum Camp

10pm, ITV1

Ever since Crowborough’s former military facility became home to asylum seekers, paranoia has been rife in the town. This balanced and extremely sad documentary goes undercover in the camp (allegedly badly run, home to many traumatised people and part of a company owned by a billionaire) and meets locals who manifest both ignorance and generosity. It comes away with a bleak portrait of a situation that could very easily be better for everyone. Phil Harrison

Blue Planet III

8pm, BBC One

In an unexpected wildlife duel, it’s sea lion v black neck swan! But swimming to other waters to hunt is one thing that sea lions, and other ocean animals in this episode, do to adapt to seasonal changes. Elsewhere, the dating rituals of southern right whales are hilarious, eyebrow-raising … and so beautiful. HR

This City Is Ours

9pm, BBC One

The robust gangland drama continues after the death of Rachel. Michael orders Freddie to keep his “head down and mouth shut” as Elaine and Ozzie have a very tense exchange. Meanwhile, Banksey bides his time with the police to give Freddie a chance to disappear. But will he end up turning himself in? Priya Elan

Mortimer & Whitehouse: Gone Fishing

9pm, BBC Two

Bob is on home soil this week as he and Paul visit the magnificent River Tees in County Durham, where the trout are dark and, if you’re lucky, a bit orangey. Popping up as a guest is Reece Shearsmith, who tells local folk-horror stories that serve as warnings of danger in the freezing waters. Jack Seale

Stacey Dooley’s Australia: Off the Beaten Track

9pm, Channel 4

For the next leg of her Aussie tour, Dooley heads to Queensland, hoping to spot a croc in the world’s oldest tropical rainforest. There she embeds with a hippy commune whose off-grid set-up includes solar panels and a pizza oven. But can they help their guest overcome her fear of rodents? Graeme Virtue

Fontaines DC at Later … With Jools Holland

10pm, BBC Two

You know you’ve well and truly arrived when you get a whole episode of Later … devoted to you. And so it is with the currently ubiquitous Dublin rockers who will have the Alexandra Palace theatre to themselves for this intimate performance of songs from their Dopamine Chamber album. PH

Film choice

Conclave, out now, Netflix

The cryptic selection process involved in picking a new pope is custom-made for Robert Harris’s brand of page-turning, history-adjacent thriller. And it’s equally compelling when turned into a film as accomplished as Edward Berger’s twisty drama. Ralph Fiennes headlines as Cardinal Thomas Lawrence, who has the job of organising the gathering of Catholic luminaries to select the next vicar of Christ. But God is largely absent as voting and plotting go hand in hand and the favourites come and go. A superb mystery, with Fiennes a rock as the one honest broker. Simon Wardell
