TV tonight: a gripping murder-trial experiment gets inside the heads of jurors | Television

The Jury: Murder Trial

9pm, Channel 4

How much can we trust the jury system? This four-parter takes a real murder trial and re-enacts it in front of two juries – who may well give opposite verdicts. Gamifying the case of a murdered wife is potentially misjudged, but as a social experiment it shows what each individual thinks at each stage of the case – and how their own backgrounds affect their takes on events.

The Way

9pm, BBC One

Episode two of a highly ambitious allegorical drama, by the actor-director Michael Sheen, the writer James Graham and the ideas man Adam Curtis. With martial law in place that does not extrapolate too far from the reality of modern UK anti-protest measures, Geoff (Steffan Rhodri) and Dee (Mali Harries) desperately try to protect their children from the authorities.

The Space Shuttle That Fell to Earth

9pm, BBC Two

A haunting finale for a superb three-part documentary on the 2003 Columbia space shuttle disaster.

That confirms an organisational complacency described by one contributor here as “a failure to imagine failure”. JS

9pm, ITV1

In 2010, Joanna Simpson was killed by her husband Robert Brown, who was a BA pilot. He handed himself in the next day, but refused to help the police with their investigation. In this disturbing two-part documentary, interviews with Joanna’s family and footage of Brown’s questioning retell the story. HR

Curb Your Enthusiasm

Tracey Ullman’s Curb stint, as Larry’s nightmare girlfriend Irma, has been a cringetastic delight from the start. Remember her exuberant celebrations when Larry agreed to fund cosmetic surgery (“Foo-foo surgery! A designer vagina!”)? But can this beautiful romance survive couples counselling? Or the trouble in the locker room at Larry’s golf club? Ellen E Jones

Rosie Jones has her first gameshow – and it’s a raucous hoot. The premise is simple: the team captains, Judi Love and Katherine Ryan, must put a group of normal people in order. But, as Richard Osman and Chris McCausland find out in episode one, putting people in order of who has been married most often is hard. HR
