The Inheritance

9pm, Channel 4

Liz Hurley is dead. Well, for the benefit of this Traitors-style gameshow she is. Her executor Robert Rinder is overseeing her inheritance: he shows clips of Hurley setting daily challenges for the 13 players battling it out to take their stake. “God, she looks good. If I look that good when I’m dead I’ll be absolutely thrilled,” says Pat, who is one to watch. The rules are a tad confusing, as is the opening task, but it’s the bitching and backstabbing that keep it juicy. And at the Division Ceremony, where players must vote for who gets the first chunk of cash, one of them causes so much beef that Rinder shouts: “Decorum please! This is the Deceased’s house.” It’s camp, devious and heaps of fun. Hollie Richardson

Murder Case: Who Killed Kiesha?

9pm, BBC Two

A bleak but fascinating new series offering insights into murder cases as the investigations play out. It begins in Elgin, north-east Scotland, with the killing of Lucretia “Kiesha” Donaghy, a 32-year-old mother who, it turned out, was heavily involved in drugs. As the circumstances around her death unfurl, it remains meticulous and nonjudgmental. Phil Harrison

I Fought the Law

Sheridan Smith is on shattering, career-best form in this true-crime drama. She plays Ann Ming, who fought for justice after the murder of her 22-year-old daughter Julie in 1989. When Julie went missing, the police promised nothing happened to her in her home – but two months later Ming found her body in the bathroom. This failing was just the start of her long journey to challenge and change laws. HR
