Equator 9pm, Sky Nature

A lavish, beautifully shot new series exploring the crucible of much of the worlds most remarkable wildlife. Along the equator, the sun is at its most intense, so everything happens faster and more spectacularly. We begin on the Galpagos, a tiny atoll that supports a remarkable variety of life: from flatfish and monstrous crabs to giant cormorants that are endlessly engaged in attritional territorial battles with iguanas. Skys nature docs have never quite had the authority of the Beebs but, even so, this is a treat. Phil Harrison

Moving, enraging documentary that tells the story of Adam Goodes, an Indigenous Australian footballer (Aussie rules) who was named Australian of the Year in 2014 and then essentially booed out of the game a year later. The overt and apparently unrepentant racism he suffered is explored unsparingly. PH

Sean Bakers vibrant follow-up to Tangerine is set in a cheap motel neighbouring the wealthy tourist resort of Walt Disney World. Run by exasperated-but-decent manager Bobby (Willem Dafoe), it holds magic for kids like the irrepressible Moonee (Brooklynn Prince) whose joy counterpoints the trials of her mum. Paul Howlett
