Sharon & Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home

9pm, BBC One
This documentary was pulled from the schedules when it was due for release last month. But here it is now. In 2022, the cameras returned to follow the Osbournes for three years. Ozzy’s health continued to decline and, just days after a defiant final homecoming concert with Black Sabbath, he died. The footage has been reworked as a one-hour film and is a special ode to the last chapter in the metal icon’s life. Hollie Richardson

Dragons’ Den

8pm, BBC One
Fruit-shaped shoe deodorant, anyone? It’s one of the business ideas floated in the den this week. Peter Jones, Deborah Meaden and co might also be tempted by pitches for a ginger-based booze alternative, a bodycare brand and a smart stove monitor. HR

George Clarke’s Homes in the Wild

8pm, Channel 4

The housing expert visits remote and remarkable homes in rural New Zealand and Australia to tell their stories for a new series. He starts with three properties on Great Barrier Island, including an award-winning house with an unusual courtyard. Then, he stumbles upon a solar-powered Irish pub. HR

Long Lost Family

9pm, ITV1
Consider this your Kleenex klaxon: Davina McCall and Nicky Campbell reunite more relatives scattered by fate. A mother’s final wish was for her family to track down a sibling they never had the chance to know; there is also a father racked by guilt that he put his daughter up for adoption 50 years ago. Graeme Virtue.

Taskmaster

9pm, Channel 4
This week, Alex Horne forgets one of the golden rules of Taskmaster: never give a contestant (in this case, Ania Magliano) access to your phone. Meanwhile, Sanjeev Bhaskar is tested by the incompetence of a teammate in a group test. This new batch have internalised the spirit of the show and are shaping up well. Phil Harrison

All Creatures Great and Small

9pm, Channel 5
While James is burning himself out and sparring with Richard Alderson over the muddy floor, Siegfried causes raised eyebrows when he wanders home after a late night out. And before long, an unexpected purchase brings even more chaos to the surgery – an infernal X-ray machine. All the same, can James save Sister Rose’s rescue dog? Ali Catterall
