TV tonight: how comedian Adam Hills became an international rugby star | Television

11.05pm, Channel 4

Comic Adam Hills has a second life, as C4’s self-described “Mr Rugby League” and as an international player himself, for Australia’s Physical Disability Rugby League team. This likable documentary follows his journey to the World Cup, taking in fundraising struggles, a badly timed bout of food poisoning, and finally a degree of redemption. A tribute to the value of togetherness in the face of adversity. Phil Harrison

Millionaire Hoarders

8pm, Channel 4

More well-to-do eccentrics are in need of a life overhaul as the series continues. This episode’s most interesting treasure belongs to retired artists Carole and Roger, who have accumulated room after room full of interesting (and potentially valuable) objects. But can their collection be streamlined? PH

The Reunion

9pm, ITV1

First shown on ITVX, this murder mystery starring Ioan Gruffudd is ludicrously twisty and, on occasion, ferociously violent. Its premise involves a group of students who, for 25 years, have covered up the disappearance of an old friend. Gruffudd plays Thomas, an author who attends a reunion and gets more than he bargained for. PH

Then You Run

9pm, Sky Max

As the girl gang continue to look for Stink, we find out in a flashback episode what happened to her after the car crash. The hitman who captures her reveals he can’t kill a pregnant woman. Cue a frightening, farcical and very fun-to-watch 24 hours. Hollie Richardson

Billions

9pm, Sky Atlantic

It’s the seventh and final season of this smart albeit (consciously) soul-destroying drama about the machinations of the super-rich. For its finale, the old gang are back together as Damian Lewis’s Bobby Axelrod returns. Expect much focus on the political ambitions of Michael Prince (Corey Stoll) and the ruthless alliance-building of Paul Giamatti’s Chuck Rhoades. PH

The Power of Parker

9.30pm, BBC One

The amiable 90s-set comedy-drama goes dark – in the sense that this is a night episode. Spurned mistress Kath (Sian Gibson) and wronged wife Diane (Rosie Cavaliero) pursue busted Lothario Martin (Conleth Hill) to a nightclub. When these fishes-out-of-water take an E, you can write the rest yourself. Ellen E Jones
