Temple

9pm, Sky Max

“That’s quite a story, almost unbelievable … ” So says the police officer reading Beth’s (Catherine McCormack) statement about coming back from the dead. Cue flashbacks of what happened when we left her husband Daniel (Mark Strong) – a suave but desperate surgeon running an illicit clinic – in a deadly shootout at the end of the first season. The police aren’t the only ones left unconvinced by this medical crime drama. But it’s back, anyway. Hollie Richardson

Anglers beware: those might not be shoals of brown trout floating down your local river… Tonight, Joe Crowley investigates how English rivers and coastal waters are teeming with raw sewage – sometimes dumped illegally by water companies. Since 2009, only 14% of rivers in England have been rated as healthy. Wild swimmers: don’t forget the nose plugs. Ali Catterall

Pan’s Labyrinth (Guillermo del Toro, 2006), 12.15pm, 10.15pm, Sky Cinema Greats
Returning to themes from his earlier film The Devil’s Backbone, Guillermo del Toro set his boldly imaginative fantasy at the end of the Spanish civil war. The fascists have won but there are resistance cells in the forests, so the sadistic Captain Vidal (Sergi López) takes pregnant wife Carmen (Ariadna Gil) and stepdaughter Ofelia (Ivana Baquero) off with him on manoeuvres. Ofelia’s escape into fairytale collides with bloody reality as she meets a faun (Doug Jones) who, believing her a lost princess, sets her a series of tasks to prove her non-human nature. Simon Wardell

Don’t Look Now (Nicolas Roeg, 1973), 9pm, BBC Four
Adapted from a Daphne du Maurier short story, Nicolas Roeg’s supernatural chiller is a densely layered masterpiece, from its red palette and water symbolism to the fragmented scene of love-making with stars Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie. After their daughter accidentally drowns, grieving architect John and his wife, Laura, go to out-of-season Venice for work, where a psychic tells them their child is trying to get in touch. John dismisses the idea but mysterious events begin to unsettle him. SW
