TV tonight: hit sitcom Ghosts gets a glossy US adaptation

Ghosts US

8.30pm, BBC Three

US adaptations of UK comedies are hit or miss – and the jury is still out on this latest one. The format remains the same: Samantha and Jay inherit a dead aunt’s house teeming with a motley crew of ghosts. After a near-death experience, Samantha can see and speak to them. US versions of the original gang are here – with the additions of Flower the (annoying) 70s hippy and Thorfinn the Viking. It might just lack the charms of Jim Howick and Lolly Adefope.

Kingdom of Dreams

The final part of this sumptuous series explores the pressures placed on fashion “princes” Alexander McQueen and Marc Jacobs as their careers went stratospheric in the 00s.

SAS Rogue Heroes

9pm, BBC One

The chaps prepare for another bash at that blasted Axis airstrip, as Connor Swindells and Jack O’Connell continue to keep dramatic operations on track with their juicy charisma clash as suave Stirling and wild Paddy. It’s bullish derring-do with just about enough grit and wit. Jack Seale

Italia 90: Four Weeks That Changed the World

9pm, Sky Documentaries

The second part of this series about the 1990 Fifa World Cup focuses on Yugoslavia’s ascent to the quarter-finals where they faced Argentina, with Paul Gascoigne and Jürgen Klinsmann appearing as talking (and walking) heads.

Film choice

Surge, 10pm, BBC Two

Ben Whishaw gives a mesmerising performance in this relentless close-up drama about an airport security officer going off the rails. Friendless, joyless and withdrawn, Joseph snaps one day at work and has what appears to be a manic episode – beginning with chewing a glass and descending swiftly into bank robbery. From coiled and cowed to giddy and impetuous, a brilliant Whishaw runs the gamut of emotions in a debut feature by Oscar short film winner Aneil Karia that puts us right up in Joseph’s face as his sense of identity is smashed up and rearranged.

Diego Maradona, 12.10am, More4

Yet more football-related content linked to the World Cup, but this has the stamp of quality as it’s by Asif Kapadia, the director of those fine documentary profiles Senna and Amy. Facing a life of more incident than most to cover, Kapadia focuses largely on the Argentinian’s time playing for the looked-down-upon Napoli, whom he helped win their first ever league title and then went on to lift the World Cup. With a wealth of unseen footage, it’s a fascinating cautionary tale of a man hitting the heights and plunging to the depths, sometimes simultaneously. SW
