The Secret History Of Our Streets
9pm, BBC2

London’s Camberwell Grove today is an elegant locale of listed buildings where homes often sell for north of £1m. It means the largely Georgian street, originally built to house an emerging middle class back in an era when Camberwell was a proto-commuter village, has come full circle. For much of the 20th century, it was a working-class area, abandoned by the professional classes who were spooked by London’s relentless expansion. So what’s the overarching narrative here? It’s a story bound up with gentrifying trailblazers who wanted to renovate the Grove’s fine old houses, and the growth of the modern conservation movement. Jonathan Wright

24 Hours In AE
9pm, Channel 4

The staff at King’s see damaged fingers, an elderly woman with cancer who has fallen and a man who has been crushed between a river barge and a bridge – it’s feared he has a damaged pelvis and spinal injuries. Personal stories run alongside the ever-impressive medical treatment – surely the best ad for the NHS there is. Martin Skegg

Turner’s Thames
9pm, BBC4

Matthew Collings explores the great landscape painter JMW Turner’s relationship to the Thames: not just the docks of London or the estuary around Margate, but how he used the Thames as the basis of his historical and classical paintings. His obsession was with capturing fleeting moments from the ever-changing play of light on the waters. Collings is also keen to emphasise the social context of the paintings and link them to the ideas of Turner’s time, such as the Napoleonic wars and Burke’s concept of the sublime. MS

American Weed
9pm, National Geographic

Drugs campaigner Scoot Crandall stands on an American street corner with a billboard. “I feel like a little guy trying to do battle with a big guy,” he says, in an argument over marijuana. What’s interesting about this is that the “big guys” are legal marijuana suppliers. Fort Collins, the “pot capital of Northern Colorado”, has more medical marijuana dispensaries than Starbucks. This surprising documentary looks at life for the growers, dispensary owners, the grateful recipients for whom marijuana makes such a difference, and the opponents, like Crandall, who claim their town is (ho) “going to pot”.

A Short History of Everything Else
10pm, Channel 4

It’s about time that someone devised a lighthearted panel show involving a bunch of British comedians – and, thankfully, Channel 4 have stepped in to fill the gaping void with this new series. Hosted by Griff Rhys Jones, with Marcus Brigstocke and Charlie Baker as regular captains, it is, as Jones admits, a “nostalgia fest”, in which the teams are presented with clips of archive news footage from decades past, with all their attendant horrors of industrial strife and terrible haircuts, and attempt to show off their memories of current affairs past – both momentous and trivial.

The Only Way Is Marbs
10pm, ITV2

Time for the Essex-dwellers to make their annual pilgrimage to their spiritual home: Marbella. The glamorous cast have abstained from carbs and now they’re ready to be flung into the action, some of which, as the warning goes, has been set up purely for your entertainment. Will there be drama? Well, with the girls divided into rival camps after weeks of back-biting and screeching in faces, it’s pretty much guaranteed. Hannah Verdier
