Tonight at 9pm on Channel 4, the documentary “How to Get Filthy Rich With Gary Stevenson” airs. It features Gary Stevenson, born into a working-class family who became a millionaire by his mid-20s. He now breaks down economics for audiences and campaigns to close the wealth gap, proposing a 2% annual tax on wealth above £10m. One super-rich interviewee calls his mission “absolute populist claptrap.” Other highlights include: at 8pm on Channel 5, “Ambulance: Code Red” follows critical care teams in the Thames Valley; at 9pm on Sky Witness, the fourth series of firefighting drama “Fire Country” continues; at 10pm on BBC Two, “Mackenzie Crook and Martin Freeman Remember The Office” looks back at the iconic sitcom; at 10pm on Sky History, “Mysteries Unearthed With Danny Trejo” investigates a possible Lotus car from a James Bond film; and at 11:55pm on BBC Two, the film “My Summer of Love” starring Emily Blunt is shown.
