Sex, Lies and A Very British Scapegoat, 10.30pm, UTV
In 1963, John Profumo, the British Secretary of State for War, was forced to resign after admitting an affair with a 19-year-old model called Christine Keeler. The affair took place during the height of the Cold War when America and Russia were threatening each other with nuclear weapons and whilst Keeler was sleeping with Profumo, she was also seeing a known Russian spy. Andrew Lloyd Webber tells the story of the affair and reveals "a hedonistic world of luxury, passion and parties".

The Whale, 9.00pm, BBC One
Martin Sheen and Jonas Armstrong lead the cast in this drama, based on true accounts of the sinking of the whale ship The Essex. The account is believed to have inspired Herman Melville's Moby Dick. The drama follows the ill-fated voyage of The Essex through the eyes of cabin boy, Thomas Nickerson. At 14, he was the youngest member of the crew and one of only eight survivors of the shipwreck. Martin Sheen plays the elder Nickerson who recounts his story of survival in later life.
