Mysteries of Stonehenge
6pm, Channel 4
Spinal Tap may have professed themselves baffled as to the motivations of the original architects of Stone’Enge – and this documentary can’t definitively clear it up either. Theories abound, from an attempt by prehistoric types to harness solar power to an alien landing strip, in this opener of a new series about three iconic sites. Ali Catterall

The Book of Life, 2.05pm, BBC One
Three years before Coco animated the Mexican Day of the Dead, Jorge R Gutiérrez’s cartoon feature showed what a spectacular subject it could be. Two childhood friends – musician and scion of a bullfighting dynasty Manolo (Diego Luna) and son of a soldier Joaquin (Channing Tatum) – both love Zoe Saldaña’s Maria, but then Manolo is forced on a quest through the underworld to win her heart. With an imaginative wooden-puppet look, and all the colour and vivacity you’d expect from Latin American cultural tropes, the film certainly stands up to its more feted descendant. Simon Wardell
