Terrestrial Waterloo Road, BBC1, 8pm As the series reaches its tabloid-telly conclusion, Andrew Treneman looks on in horror as Waterloo Road becomes indoctrinated by Jerry's Creationist ideology. Impressionable pupil Janeece is well and truly suckered - and her interest in dinosaurs has bitten the dust. Andrew can't believe Jack's allowing Jerry to take over.
It's Not Easy Being Green, BBC2, 8.30pm Dick and James Strawbridge visit Cornwall, where sisters Jake and Candy eagerly await their composting loos. Dick treats them to a lesson in basic electrics when he installs the wind turbine that will power the washrooms for the girls' eco-campsite. There's a more challenging problem with Zannah and Arthur's Lincolnshire cottage. Going green in a conservation area is not easy, and planning permission for a solar panel is a real hurdle. Inspired by Dick's pig-keeping experiences, the Warrens, from Somerset, decide to get their own Gloucester Old Spots. But first they need a pig-friendly area. Dick and James are on hand to renovate a pigsty and devise a solar-powered electric fence.
The Human Footprint, Channel 4, 9pm Have you ever wondered what would happen if all the clothes, washing machines and loo roll you'd ever used were piled up outside your front door? Neither had I - unlike this landmark film, which uses art and science to explore the impact each and every human has on the planet in an average lifetime.
Digital Edwardians In Colour - The Wonderful World of Albert Kahn, BBC4, 9pm In 1908, French financier Albert Kahn's ambitious photography project began in earnest when he embarked on a circumnavigation of the world to produce an "inventory of the planet as it is inhabited and managed by humanity at the beginning of the twentieth century", accompanied by his faithful photographer-cum-chauffeur, Alfred Dutertre.
Katie and Peter: The Next Chapter, ITV2, 9pm With Harvey back at home from hospital and Junior back from Cyprus, the bizarre Andre household tries to get some normality back. With work commitments starting to stack up, Jordan - sorry, Katie - indulges in some beauty treatment, while Peter sets up a music studio at home, while reminiscing about his meteoric rise, and how the press has loved and loathed him in the past.
Kung Fu Hustle, Film4, 11.35pm Another comedy chop-socky movie from actor-director Stephen Chow, who made his name in Britain with the cult classic Shaolin Soccer. Chow plays Sing, a street hustler in pre-revolutionary China who makes the mistake of pretending to be a member of a notorious gang. He becomes caught up in a war between the gang and the residents of Pig Sty Alley, which the gang want to take over. Little do they know that two of the Alley's residents are retired martial-arts experts and soon fists and feet are flying in knockabout fights.
Radio Performance on 3, Radio 3, 7pm The music of the Scots composer John Blackwood (1868-1948) is rarely heard but tonight the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra plays Gray Galloway from his Border Ballads, No 3. Boris Giltburg (piano) is the soloist and Rumon Ganba conducts. Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No 3, and Walton's Symphony, No 1, also feature. Earlier in the day, on a rather different cultural note, Edith Bowman (Radio 1, 1pm) , talks to Tobey Maguire about his latest and last appearance as Spider-Man. And Songlines (Radio Scotland, 11.30am) looks at the hidden cost of singing Happy Birthday.
