TV tonight: join the jury as a teenager goes on trial for murder

The gripping series about controversial real-life verdicts returns. Plus: The Great British Sewing Bee gets bookish. Here’s what to watch today

9pm, Channel 4
With trial by jury under scrutiny, this is a timely moment for the return of this gripping series, which reruns an actual criminal trial and follows the 12 jury members as they reach their verdict. This time, the case of brothers – one of whom is only 14 years old – accused of killing their stepfather causes instant polarisation. Debates around nature and nurture and punishment for its own sake emerge straight away. Phil Harrison
