Kevin Sinfield, “Going the extra mile” about his relationship with Rob Burrow and his work with MND. Steph Houghton’s husband Steven Darby is in it as well. It’s only 30 minutes but very moving. I dare anyone not to shed a tear, he’s one of the greatest ever Sportsman of my generation.
Must see documentaries..

Absolutely. I’m not a fan of the honours system but if he doesn’t get recognised it will be pretty poor.

Already got an MBE then an OBE a couple of years back, and I think there has to be a certain number of years passed before you can receive another award.
So it's likely another few years before he could get a knighthood etc

Netflix From the Frontlines, I’ve always loved watching WW2 documentaries this is quite good, only 6 episodes and colorized but the human stories from all sides are good to listen to, the Jewish couple at the end had me in tears. Just a shame we never learn as a species, also it seems the USA won Europe and not the allies. 8/10
The World at War will never be bettered though.

American nightmare, honestly its mind boggling, I won’t spoil it but again the American police are fucking useless, even when their mistakes are pointed out,I’d say make into a film but they already have (sort of)
Year Zero. It's all about the Cambodian genocide. Having just left Cambodia it was particularly poignant, but learning about the wests/china's involvement in funding pol pot and the khmer rouge after vietnams invasion was disturbing.

I thought first they killed my father was a brilliant but harrowing film. Really opened our eyes to what when on.

The miners strike doc on C4 currently is great viewing.
The police and the governments were and will always be fucking cunts

It’s a little cheesy with the dramatics but the documentary about Alexander the Great on Netflix is a good watch if you don’t know his story.
Going to have a look for this, thanks for recommending.

If like me you remember it being on the tv all those years ago, its like being blasted back 40 years.
Same as why i like stuff about The Troubles
Yeah, I was about 22 at the time so remember the strikes well. Plus I've always been a union member so it's of particular interest.
Is it a series?

3 part series
The second has some great revelations that refer me to my comment above about governments being cunts
Think we will try and watch it this weekend, thanks again.
