Pick of the Day
Peter O’Toole: Along the Sky Road to Aqaba, 10.00pm, Sky Arts
Streaming on NOW
This documentary looks pretty unmissable.
Directed by Jim Sheridan, it’s about legendary actor Peter O’Toole who brought a touch of danger to his art and a stroke of madness to his life yet inspired a generation of movie makers.
Reflecting O’Toole's theatrical legacy, this film is structured into four acts each introduced by a quote about O’Toole that encapsulates his life during a specific period.
Each act expands into a holistic narrative addressing questions such as his self-belief, his alcoholism, his relationships with women, his belief in socialism and his selective embrace of Irishness.
While O’Toole's words (gleaned from hundreds of hours of archival interviews) act as a narrator of his own journey, Jim Sheridan further explores the story through interviews with O’Toole’s family, artists, actors and directors that knew him well.

The quarter-final coverage begins with Manchester City v Bayern Munich (KO 8.00pm).
Darragh Maloney (below) presents all the action from the first-leg tie at Etihad Stadium in Manchester.
The English club thrashed Bayern's compatriots RB Leipzig 8-1 on aggregate in the previous round, with Erling Haaland scoring five goals in a 7-0 second-leg victory at this venue.
But Bayern, who eliminated Paris Saint-Germain in the last 16, should prove to be a different proposition, even though they recently parted company with manager Julian Nagelsmann.
Plus, there are highlights from tonight’s other quarter-final game, in Lisbon between Benfica and Inter.
Interior Design Masters with Alan Carr, 8.00pm, BBC One
