Sinkholes: Deadly Drops SBS, 7.30pm

You might be reduced to a couch-dwelling hermit – without a TV – after tuning in for SBS’s “disaster week” coverage. Along with a handful of shows with the word “killer” in their title, there’s this rather educational documentary series exploring the phenomenon of sinkholes. The three-part special – which breaks from convention with the term “deadly” in the title – runs from tonight until Tuesday, so there’s no hanging around a whole week for the next instalment. Sharing stories from the places – and people – which survived a huge hole suddenly appearing in the earth, the doco also asks some pertinent questions.

Mystery Road ABC, 8.30pm Engrossing performances and enigmatic characters feature in this sophisticated, homegrown series. But it’s the beautiful yet eerie landscape that looms the largest in

Van Vuuren), Emma (Judy Davis, pictured) rounds him up for an interview. With only two episodes to go, it’s anyone’s guess as to where the story is headed.
