Secrets of the Museum (BBC2, 8pm)

VISITORS may not have been allowed in London’s Victoria and Albert Museum for much of the past year, but work has been carrying on behind the scenes. The second series of this documentary explores the V&A’s workshops and storerooms and meets its experts and conservators. In the first episode, theatre and performance keeper Geoff has just taken delivery of a red Lurex suit belonging to Jim Lea, the bassist with Slade. Meanwhile, a 500-year-old wax model by Michelangelo is being brought out of hibernation.

Love Your Garden (STV, 8pm)

RICHARD Warren is Britain’s oldest policeman – he’s a 74-year-old special constable. When he’s not on the beat, he’s running marathons for charity and caring for his wife Lynette, who has multiple sclerosis. Alan Titchmarsh and the makeover team are rewarding the couple’s hard work by heading to Wiltshire to give them a traditional formal garden. They also share tips on how to create a pond, screen unsightly spots and tackle the surprisingly tricky job of marking out an oval lawn.

Uprising (BBC1, 9pm)

STEVE McQueen’s drama anthology Small Axe was one of the TV highlights of last year. Now, he’s back on the BBC with a three-part documentary. Showing across consecutive evenings, it looks at three interlinked events in 1981. The second and third episodes focus on the Black People’s Day of Action, which saw more than 20,000 people join the first organised mass protest by black British people, and the Brixton riots. However, Uprising begins with the story of the New Cross Fire, which claimed the lives of 13 young black people.

Our Family Farm Rescue with Adam Henson (C5, 9pm)

MANY British family farms have been passed down through generations, but that doesn’t mean the new owners can just carry on running them the way their ancestors did. In this new series, Adam Henson meets the farmers who are fighting for survival and diversifying their businesses. He begins at Castlehill Farm, where Ian and Karen Taylor are reaching retirement and reluctant to make changes. However, daughter Gemma thinks there’s potential to turn their old hay barn into a venue for hire.
