The Disappearance of Jay Slater

9pm, Channel 4

“I will never understand why social media detectives were totally destroying people’s lives. It’s been absolute torture.” When 19-year-old Jay Slater’s body was found in Tenerife after he went missing last year, his family and the authorities had to uncover the facts amid a global storm of YouTube and TikTok conspiracy theories. This sobering documentary follows his mum and dad as they search for answers, with access to Jay’s postmortem, funeral and inquest. Hollie Richardson

Each nightly visit to the house will also be followed by Late & Live. HR

American Fiction, 10pm, BBC Two

A great read … American Fiction on BBC Two. Photograph: Courtesy of ORION Pictures Inc.

Jeffrey Wright can generally do no wrong, and that’s certainly the case in this knife-edge satire from Cord Jefferson. Sourced from Percival Everett’s acclaimed novel Erasure, it gleefully rips into the US publishing industry’s narrow-minded stance towards Black lives and readers. Wright’s stuffy academic and writer Monk doesn’t sell many books until he adopts a “gangsta” persona and pens a stereotypical potboiler, My Pafology, full of gangs, crack and violent families. But can he square his new success, and family commitments, with his morals? Simon Wardell
