A new documentary titled "England 'Til I Die" premieres tonight on Channel 4, examining the growth of a far-right protest movement in a small English town.

The film follows Liam Tomsett, a resident of Crowborough in East Sussex, who emerged as a leader of local anti-immigration activism after the government announced plans to house asylum seekers in an army camp in the town. Cameras track Tomsett and fellow far-right protesters as they become increasingly drawn into the movement.

The documentary was made by the Bafta-winning team behind "Ukraine: Enemy in the Woods." The same team also produced the BBC documentary "Gaza: How to Survive a Warzone," which the broadcaster ultimately decided not to air. Reviewers describe the new film as shocking and charged with anger.

"England 'Til I Die" airs at 10pm.

Elsewhere on British television tonight, BBC One presents "The Repair Shop: Beyond the Barn," a spin-off exploring the stories behind restored items, including a vintage trunk once owned by the late Paul O'Grady's husband. Sky One continues its nature series "Surviving Earth" with an episode set in the late Carboniferous period, while Channel 4 also offers a new season of "Grand Designs" and a revisit of successful renovation projects on "Kirstie and Phil's Love It Or List It."
