Inside the American Embassy
10pm, Channel 4
The US ambassador to Britain, Robert Wood Johnson, has been friends with Donald Trump for 35 years. He is puzzled by what he regards as British negativity towards Brexit and feels that “the world is being reorganised in a way that really makes sense”. This series gains close access to the senior diplomat and, at the very least, proves a bracing reminder that for many people – including members of the British government – Trump is a creatively disruptive maverick rather than a grotesque proto-fascist.

Genius: Picasso
8pm, National Geographic
Picasso concludes with Antonio Banderas having reached peak prosthetics.

But when Françoise rebukes him, he fights back, driving a wedge between her and husband Luc. Ben Arnold
Versailles
9pm, BBC Two
Louis is determined to damage the rebels despite Philippe’s pleas for a measured response. The fate of Marchal isn’t the only issue maddening the mardy monarch, who discovers that the queen is party to Eleanor’s plot and that the Vatican considers his claim to Spain to be largely pretty lame. Mark Gibbings-Jones
Charles Manson: The Final Words
10pm, Really
“I’m the most famous man in the world: what do you think’s gonna happen when I die?” raved pitiful narcissist Manson before his death last year. Sadly for him, the answer was pretty much “nobody gave a toss”. Rob Zombie narrates this bleakumentary in which Manson is interviewed. Ali Catterall
Film choice
Point Blank 9pm, TCM
John Boorman’s first Hollywood venture is part arthouse feature, part thriller as lean and hard as its star, Lee Marvin. His Walker is an old-school crook, double-crossed and left for dead on Alcatraz, but returning to seek vengeance. He moves through a gleaming LA, incomprehensible to the “respectable” modern mobsters. Paul Howlett
