Pick of the Day
Anton & Giovanni’s Adventures in Sicily, 9.00pm, BBC One
Strictly Come Dancing stars Anton Du Beke and Giovanni Pernice embark on a tour of Giovanni's homeland of Sicily, beginning in the port town of Sciacca.
Their first stop is the Valley of the Temples, the remains of a huge Greek city featuring some of the best examples of classical Greek architecture anywhere in the world.
From there, they hit the white beaches of Porta Bianca before taking in some more history in Syracuse.
Today, it is just a provincial city, but more than 2,700 years ago it was one of the largest colonies in the ancient Greek world, and some of the original buildings remain inside the city's Archaeological Park.
Their final stop tonight is the island's second city Catania, a place very significant to Giovanni as he moved there aged 14 to further his dance career.

Sunset Boulevard, 6.05pm, Sky Cinema Greats
Billy Wilder is my favourite movie director – and this slice of Tinseltown satire is one of his best.
After all, how many films start off with a corpse in a swimming pool explaining how he got there.
In a superb piece of casting, Gloria Swanson basically plays herself, an ageing silent-film star who has faded into Hollywood obscurity.
She enlists a down-on-his-luck, opportunistic young screenwriter – played by William Holden - to aid her comeback, but her maniacal ego turns the challenge into an uphill battle.
Climbing Blind, 10.50pm, BBC Four
Here’s a tale of a truly exceptional relationship.
Documentary about Jesse Dufton and his attempt to take on the challenge of becoming the first blind person to lead a climb of the Old Man of Hoy in Orkney, Scotland.
At four years of age, Jesse was diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa, a rare genetic disease that breaks down the retina's cells. When he was 20, Jesse could no longer read.
By the time he was 30, he could only detect light, with around a one to two per cent field of view.
As a lifelong climber, what Jesse has achieved flies in the face of adversity, training for world cup events and leading traditional rock climbs with his sight guide and fiancee Molly.
His attempt on the Old Man of Hoy is testimony to his ambition to take on new and greater challenges, despite his devastating condition.
DNA Journey, 9.00pm, UTV/ITV

The Abyss: Rise and Fall of the Nazis, 10.10pm, Sky History
This 10-part series opens with Europe in the 1920s and 1930s – a time when the continent licks its wounds after the devastation of World War I.
The Abyss: The Rise and Fall of the Nazis takes a fresh look at the Third Reich from a global and current perspective. It tells us how the Nazis conquered Germany and then half of Europe within a few years.
How could that be, with the horrors of World War I still so fresh? Why did it take so long before they were stopped?
A combination of previously unpublished archive material, historical sources and an international team of experts paint a new picture of Hitler’s regime.
