Thief Trackers
11.45am, BBC1
This new daily daytime series is a strange mix of heartwarming stories about stolen goods being reunited with their owners and blatant honeytraps designed to shame opportunistic crooks. In this opener, a concealed camera outside a London charity shop captures footage of passersby nosing through donations left after hours, including one particularly tempting bag with a GPS tracker planted inside. Even if such stunts are in the public interest, the mocking You’ve Been Framed-style voiceover is a real turnoff. Graeme Virtue
Danger Mouse
6pm, CBBC
After Thunderbirds and Clangers, another risky return for a beloved children’s TV classic. The wham-bam scenes that kick off Danger Mouse V2.0 initially suggest a particularly inelegant reboot. But all the Hollywood overkill is in service of a gag, and soon we’re back to the very British, fourth-wall-breaking silliness that defined the original. Suave Alexander Armstrong and squeaky Kevin Eldon make for a winning DM and Penfold, while Dave Lamb, the voice of Come Dine With Me, is the very hands-on narrator. Graeme Virtue
Countdown To Life: The Extraordinary Making of You
9pm, BBC2
Michael Mosley concludes his three-part series on how we land in this life by focusing on the final few months in the womb. It’s a tale of cartilage turning to bone, connections in our brains developing at an extraordinary rate and factors such as a mother’s diet having a huge effect. Along the way, we’re introduced to some remarkable characters, including Joey, whose brain never forgets anything. The series ends, of course, with a first gulp of air and new life. Jonathan Wright
Autopsy: The Last Hours of Amy Winehouse
9pm, Channel 5
Not long after what would have been her 32nd birthday, the not particularly mysterious death of Amy Winehouse is re-evaluated by forensic physician Dr Jason Payne-James. He promises to look at medical testimony given to the 2013 inquest, eyewitness accounts, and details from Winehouse’s postmortem as he investigates Winehouse’s fatal alcohol poisoning on 23 July 2011. Unless there’s an unexpected world exclusive, you’ll be better off cranking up one of Amy’s wondrous records instead. Jack Seale
KKK: The Fight for White Supremacy
9pm, BBC3
With #blacklivesmatter omnipresent on social media, who better than BBC3 to educate a young audience on the realities of racial injustice? The channel’s Race Season begins with this documentary following the young leaders of a Ku Klux Klan faction as they take part in occult rituals and fight for the future of the confederate flag. Race Riots USA (Tuesday, 9pm) has Reggie Yates travelling to Ferguson to find out what, if anything, has changed since Michael Brown was killed by police in August 2014. Hannah J Davies
Sex Diaries: Webcam Couples
10pm, Channel 4
Now that social media has enabled and encouraged us to make perfect beasts of ourselves in public, it’s worth bearing in mind that some are prepared to take it even further than you. In the first part of this threesome of a series exploring love in the modern climate, couples explain why they’re sharing their sex lives online, like some X-rated Gogglebox: for love, possibly, in the case of newlyweds Glenn and Ari, or very much for money, in the case of pro-webcammers Emma and Eddie.

A Syrian Love Story – Storyville
10pm, BBC4
Justly acclaimed and prescient documentary by Sean McAllister, who began shooting his chronicle of the marriage of two Syrian dissidents two years before the Arab spring revolt began. His chronicle of their procession from Assad-regime prison to flight and asylum, and the strains it places upon them, now seems a portrait of an entire people. On a similar theme, tonight’s episode of Panorama, on BBC1 at 8.30pm, sees John Sweeney joining the long, anxious march from Kos to Austria via the Balkans and Hungary. Andrew Mueller
Film choice
The Ghost (Roman Polanski, 2010) 1.30am, Film4
Polanski channels the edgy suspense of earlier works such as Knife In The Water and Frantic in this polished screen version of Robert Harris’s novel. Ewan McGregor plays the unnamed writer ferried into a wintry Martha’s Vineyard to ghost the memoirs of Blairish former PM Adam Lang (Pierce Brosnan), who is struggling to defend his dodgy record on Iraq. This is political intrigue allied to a gnawing sense of physical danger, in an expertly crafted thriller. Paul Howlett
