Stacey Dooley: The Young and Homeless
10.45pm, BBC One
In this affecting, enraging look at youth homelessness in the UK, Stacey Dooley meets struggling youngsters in Blackpool and Manchester. Dooley isn’t a particularly analytical reporter – this could have done with a touch more interrogation of the systemic failures underpinning the crisis – but she is a good listener, as evinced by the bonds she establishes here. Most of these kids work and none of them seem to blame for their situation; the overall impression is of a national safety net growing frighteningly threadbare. Phil Harrison
We Are Most Amused and Amazed
8pm, ITV
Prince Charles may fancy a break with the Duchess of Cornwall for his 70th birthday, but instead he has been gifted a night of comedy and magic to raise money for the Prince’s Trust. Armstrong and Miller host proceedings, with the magicians Penn & Teller and Dynamo on the bill. Rowan Atkinson, Sandi Toksvig, Cheryl Tweedy and Kylie also appear. Hannah Verdier
Lego Masters
8pm, Channel 4
Season two of the Great British Brick Off continues. The remaining seven pairs of builders are tasked with assembling a two-tone model that will create a satisfying smash when dropped from a great height, before tackling elaborate period dioramas to be judged by the noted historian Paddy McGuinness. Graeme Virtue
School
9pm, BBC Two
This fine show is an antidote to Channel 4’s Educating series in that it examines in more detail the problems facing failing, underfunded schools and the crisis in education. Tonight, we visit Marlwood in south Gloucestershire, where the sympathetic headteacher faces a lousy Ofsted rating, demoralised staff and truancy-prone pupils. David Stubbs
I’ll Get This
10pm, BBC Two
This year’s least essential programme invites Laura Whitmore, Chris Kamara, Rachel Johnson, Julian Clary and Tom Davis to go out for dinner and play parlour games to dodge the bill. It commits the cardinal sin of being less fun to watch than appear on, but they all seem nice enough. Jack Seale
Open Heart Surgery Live
10pm, Channel 5
The siren song of live TV continues to lure in executives. Replicating an idea seen on Channel 4 a decade ago, this series follows surgical procedures live from the operating theatres of Barts Health NHS trust. Tonight: open heart surgery, with a knee replacement tomorrow and a tumour removal on Thursday. Gwilym Mumford
