TV tonight: a sobering film about the rise of extreme weather
9pm, BBC One
The anatomy of a modern climate catastrophe is revealed in this sobering documentary about the appalling floods that hit Valencia in October 2024. The first part of the film deals with the events as they were experienced by the citizens, 228 of whom didn't live to tell the tale. But there's also an insight into how humanity will have to adapt to increasingly volatile weather as failures in forecasting and preparation are laid bare. Phil Harrison

S'mores the merrier: this week the remaining pastry chef duos must come up with their own spin on the gooey US campfire treat while also rustling up a batch of creamy framboisier slices. If all that weren't stress-inducing enough, the showpiece challenge requires them to evoke their favourite visual artists – in spectacular fashion. Graeme Virtue
9pm, BBC Three
Byron (Ellis Howard) hits rock bottom as the bracing dramatisation of Paris Lees' memoir delivers a punchy final double bill. A scary stint in prison features a nice guest role for Rhys Connah (Ryan in Happy Valley) as a bully with hidden vulnerabilities. Then Byron emerges – with nowhere to go but up. Jack Seale

Another cold case reopened by criminologist David Wilson, detective Graham Hill and moonlighting actor Emilia Fox. This time, it's the unexplained 2018 disappearance of Georgina Gharsallah, whose mother, Andrea, has campaigned to uncover the truth about her daughter's fate. Was she abducted? PH
10pm, BBC Four
A gently lyrical film following Mongolian farmers Davaa and Zaya, who are forced to move to the city after a sandstorm (arguably caused by climate breakdown) kills their flock of sheep. It's not a straight narrative – the tale is told in an often dreamlike style, emphasising the connection between the people and their land. PH
10.05pm, ITV2
A fun new sitcom by Jordan Gray, Transaction makes salient points about inclusion while remaining enjoyably snarky. Gray is Olivia, a transgender woman and happily jobless slacker who is persuaded to do a few shifts at a supermarket because its boss, Simon (Nick Frost), is under fire for an (accidentally) transphobic advertising campaign. PH
Creed (Ryan Coogler, 2015), 9pm, ITV4This limber 2015 film is the second in a string of fruitful collaborations between director Ryan Coogler and actor Michael B Jordan – it set in train a new run of boxing dramas set in Rocky World. Jordan plays Adonis Johnson, the unknown son of Rocky Balboa's opponent turned friend Apollo Creed. Adonis has the fight gene, too, so he turns up in Philadelphia to get Rocky (a convincingly weary Sylvester Stallone) to train him. There's enough ring work for the action fan, but it's also an exploration of family ties and the meaning of legacy. Simon Wardell

Kris Jenner was looking her best when she showed off her elegant black-and-white dress with her dapper boyfriend Corey Gamble on Friday at Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos ' opulent wedding with Lauren Sánchez. But despite plastering a broad grin on her shockingly youthful face in video showing her and Corey leaving the nuptials on a water taxi, the 69-year-old Kardashian–Jenner family matriarch appeared to have a tense conversation with her beau. And now expert lip-reader Nicola Hickling reveals that Kris appears appeared to be in a hurry to get back to her accommodations and didn't want to wait to share a water taxi with any other A-listers. has requested comment from Jenner's representative but hasn't yet received a response. At the start of the exchange, Kris — who secured her spot among the best-dressed stars at the wedding with her black-and-white ensemble — took what looked like a paper towel from a porter, possibly to dry off any water that might have splashed on her during the journey in the island city. 'Tell them I said thanks,' she appeared to say just before she descended into the docked boat. Kris Jenner, 69, and her boyfriend Corey Gamble, 44, appeared to have a tense conversation aboard a water taxi after Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's Venice wedding on Friday Bezos and Sánchez have been an item going back to 2019, and it was revealed that they had already legally married prior to the ceremony; she's pictured in her wedding dress on the cover of Vogue Hickling — who also decoded numerous other celebrity exchanges at the wedding — noted that two male porters were then seen speaking to each other, before one turned to Kris and appeared to ask, 'You want to travel alone?' Kris could be seen responding, and her boyfriend Corey, 44, stepped down into the boat behind her. While it waited, she turned toward cameras on the other side of the canal and displayed a winning smile. Corey went on to tap a porter on the chest, and he appeared to tell him, 'We're happy to travel on our own. It's what Kris would like to do.' But he didn't appear to have resolved the situation and gotten them on the move fast enough for the momager's liking. Kris could be seen turning to Corey as she brusquely inquired, 'What are you doing? Do you need to talk?' She continued: 'I told you... for God's sake... I'd like to travel alone.' Corey seemed to do his best to accommodate his longtime partner and stepped out of the boat to speak to another man, apparently to confirm that he and Kris would be traveling alone in the boat. They seemed to get the picture, and shortly afterward, the water taxi began to sail away toward their destination. Surprisingly, Kris didn't even stick close to her celebrity daughters Kim and Khloé Kardashian and Kendall and Kylie Jenner, all of whom were attending the wedding. Other stars at the pricey nuptials included Tom Brady, a newly single Orlando Bloom, Leonardo DiCaprio and his model girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti, Oprah Winfrey and her friend Gayle King, Bill Gates and his girlfriend, Usher, Tommy Hilfiger, Elle Goulding and Diane von Fürstenberg, among others. Bezos and Sánchez have been an item going back to 2019, and it was revealed that they had already legally married prior to the ceremony. Her elegant white wedding dress was featured on the cover of Vogue to celebrate the occasion. In the cover photo, the journalist beamed from ear to ear in the dress, which featured lacy floral sleeves and a figure-hugging bodice with a high neckline. It had a skirt with paisley and floral lace designs that was cut close over her hips before fanning out at the knee. It featured a long white train behind her, and her sheer veil also dragged behind her to create a second layer. Bezos and Sánchez tied the knot in an extravaganza that reportedly cost $20 million and involved the wedding party of more than 200 guests taking over the entire San Giorgio Maggiore island in Venice. Just minutes after saying 'I do' with Bezos, Sánchez took to Instagram to share a photo of herself and the groom, which she captioned with their wedding date. While he favored a more casual, summery suit on Thursday, Bezos opted for a classic black three-piece tuxedo for his wedding day.

Channel 4 to air BBC-commissioned documentary Gaza: Doctors Under Attack
Channel 4 will air a documentary about the plight of medics in Gaza after the BBC last week announced that it would not show the film following concerns it may create 'a perception of partiality that would not meet the high standards that the public rightly expect'. The BBC had commissioned Gaza: Doctors Under Attack more than a year ago from an independent production company called Basement Films but had delayed airing it until an ongoing review into a different programme on the region was completed. The one-off documentary, which includes witness accounts from frontline Palestinian health workers in Gaza and documents attacks on hospitals and clinics, will now air on Channel 4 on July 2 at 10pm. The film has been 'fact-checked and compiled by Channel 4 to ensure it meets Channel 4 editorial standards and the Ofcom Broadcasting Code', an announcement said. Louisa Compton, Channel 4's head of news and current affairs and specialist factual and sport, said in a statement: 'This is a meticulously reported and important film examining evidence which supports allegations of grave breaches of international law by Israeli forces that deserves to be widely seen and exemplifies Channel 4's commitment to brave and fearless journalism.' In an op-ed, Ms Compton further explained: 'We are showing this programme because we believe that, following thorough fact-checking and verification, we are presenting a duly impartial view of a subject that both divides opinion and frequently provokes dispute about what constitutes a fact. 'Channel 4 has a strong tradition of putting uncomfortable reporting in front of our audiences. In doing so, we know we will antagonise somebody somewhere sometime. But we do it because we believe it is our duty to tell important journalistic stories – especially those that aren't being told elsewhere.' She added: 'Doctors Under Attack was commissioned by another broadcaster, which took a different view of the original content and decided not to broadcast it. 'That other broadcaster will have had its own reasons for not showing the programme. 'For ourselves, after rigorous fact-checking and assessing the film against our own editorial criteria as well as against all regulatory requirements, we decided that it was both compliant with the Ofcom Broadcasting Code, but also that it was important journalism in the public interest. 'Any small changes were carried out with the producers to update the film and give viewers as much information as possible. 'The result is harrowing, no doubt. It will make people angry, whichever side they take, or if they take no side. 'But while we would never judge anyone who decides that showing something could create a risk of being thought to be taking sides, we believe there are times when the same risk is run by not showing anything at all.' Basement Films said: 'This is the third film we have made about the assault on Gaza since October 7th at Basement Films, and whilst none of them have been easy, this became by far the most difficult.' The production firm said it owed 'everything' to its Palestinian colleagues in Gaza and 'the doctors and medics who trusted us with their stories'. It added: 'We want to apologise to the contributors and team for the long delay, and thank Channel 4 for enabling it to be seen.' Gaza: Doctors Under Attack was greenlit for broadcast by Ms Compton, and was made by reporter Ramita Navai, executive producer Ben De Pear, who was previously editor of Channel 4 News, and director Karim Shah for Basement Films. Mr De Pear was also previously the executive producer on 2019's For Sama, which won a Bafta and was nominated for an Oscar. The BBC pulled the documentary How To Survive A Warzone in February after it emerged that its 13-year-old narrator was the son of a Hamas official. In a statement last week, the BBC said it had paused production of Gaza: Doctors Under Attack in April, having made a decision that they could not broadcast the film while a review into a separate Gaza documentary was ongoing. The BBC said that with both films coming from independent production companies, and both about Gaza, it was right to wait for any relevant findings – and put them into action – before broadcasting the film. The BBC statement said they had for 'some weeks' been 'working with Basement Films to find a way to tell the stories of these doctors on our platforms.' They added: 'It became apparent that we have reached the end of the road with these discussions.' 'We have come to the conclusion that broadcasting this material risked creating a perception of partiality that would not meet the high standards that the public rightly expect of the BBC. 'Impartiality is a core principle of BBC News. It is one of the reasons that we are the world's most trusted broadcaster. 'Therefore, we are transferring ownership of the film material to Basement Films. 'Contrary to some reports, since we paused production of Gaza: Doctors Under Attack in April, it has not undergone the BBC's final pre-broadcast sign-off processes.' 'Any film broadcast will not be a BBC film,' the BBC said. Their statement added: 'We want to thank the doctors and contributors and we are sorry we could not tell their stories. The BBC will continue to cover events in Gaza impartially.'
