LIVE

It’s stage eight of

the most famous

• and prestigious – cycling
  race in the world, and
  there’s a 200km hilly climb
  from Macon to St Etienne.
  Maybe the sweet smell
  coming from Beaujolais’

  of a boost. HHHHLP

TV’s Black Renaissance

● DOCUMENTARY / 9pm / BBC2

NEW

...Reggie Yates in Hollywood.

There’s a revolution in the

world of television: shows with mainly

African-American casts and writers

• Black-ish, Insecure, Master of None –
  are rocking ratings from network to
  network. In this one-off documentary,
  Reggie Yates talks to some of the most
  exciting talent in Hollywood, from

True Detective’s Mahershala Ali (who won

Best Supporting Actor Oscars for Green

Book and Moonlight) to Lena Waithe,

co-writer of the Netflix comedy drama

Master of None. Reggie doesn’t beat about

the bush here, looking at the issues raised

and addressed in these shows, and how

the work has been received and viewed

in Trump’s America. HHHHLB

Moon Launch Live

● FACTUAL / 8pm / C4

NEW

Let C4 transport you back

50 years to 16 July 1969 and

that amazing moment when three US

astronauts were blasted into space –

destination the Moon. Many of the 500

million watching around the world were

awestruck that such a monumental feat

could have been achieved in their lifetime

(many conpiracy theorists still believe it

never actually happened!), but with the

aid of NASA archive, global TV footage,

and adverts and news reports from the era,

those of us who weren’t born then can

now experience the excitement of launch

day and that epic countdown... HHHHLP

Killing Eve

● DRAMA / 9.15pm / BBC1

It’s definitely more satisfying when Villanelle’s victim

is a nasty piece of work, so there’s much fun to be had

watching her circling unpleasant tech squillionaire Aaron

Peel. Pretending to be an American recovering addict,

Villanelle befriends his sister at an AA meeting to get

closer to her controlling sibling. Meanwhile, Eve finds

Niko shacked up with Gemma and heads off to confront

them at her house, where this episode’s title (I Hope You

LikeMissionary) is soon explained. HHHHSM
