Yahoo News TV tonight: the father of rock'n'roll Chuck Berry
Chuck Berry: The King of Rock n’ Roll
9pm, Sky Arts
Chuck Berry, who died in 2017, is often hailed as one of the founders of rock’n’roll, and he was still playing up to 100 shows per year well into his 70s. This documentary focuses on his musical legacy through interviews with the likes of Keith Richards and Alice Cooper and footage from Berry’s estate. However, it veers well clear of his controversies – such as allegations of domestic abuse in the 1980s – making it more of a hagiography than an objective analysis. Ammar Kalia

He likes big boats and he cannot lie: Rob Bell is back for a second series of nautical profiles, beginning with the HMS Endeavour.

Spiral
9pm, BBC Four
The slow-burning French police drama continues with its seventh season. After last week’s robbery of a suspected Chinese money-laundering operation, Roban piles the pressure on suspect Ryan, while the presence of an informant could disrupt the investigation. The kinetic dialogue carries this glacial thriller. AK

“Don’t go to a white girl’s parents’ house!” a friend explicitly warns young – and black – Chris (Daniel Kaluuya); but off he goes with girlfriend Rose (Allison Williams) to her family’s rural mansion. As the gathering unfolds, social embarrassments give way to a nervily funny, creeping sense of racist menace. Paul Howlett
