Must see documentaries..

Watched Louis Theroux on calls with police in Philadelphia which was excellent - real life the shield

Started Sins of my Father British Gangster 2 - about Noonan

 

[Adidas Sharston]

The Guv'nor.. Worth a watch for the old footage with Roy Shaw. Preferred the book 7/10.

 

[FCBarca]

Planet Earth II, coming soon!

Touching the Void

Mountain climber making the descent of the largest mountain in Peru with a compound leg break. Scary stuff.

Sounds like a pussy. I fell out of a tree on a farm when I was 9, and it was a rusty nail stuck into a branch that caught my corduroy pants and ripped down the leg all the way to the hem to leave me dangling there in mid air.

Proper Indiana Jones shit.

Hopefully this will be reference quality for UHD as Planet Earth was for HD.

Saw them at Rebellion in Manchester the other day, only about 30 people there so not much has changed from the documentary haha

Same thing I was thinking, the first Planet Earth was the impetus to get an HD television for me

Stop At Nothing
Watched it earlier and it was great. Documentary about that **** Lance Armstrong. Enjoyed it more than The Armstrong Lie, it was more detailed and featured more of the people involved and affected.

These three look worth watching.

Cropsey. Not as good as I'd hoped.

But when its about about child killers and depraved mental institutions maybe thats a good thing.

Anyone know of a good, unbiased documentary about the conflict in Ireland? Trying to educate myself but find most of them have a biased narrative.

I would think its nigh on impossible to make a documentary or produce any narrative about the history with Ireland without someone finding it biased one way or another. Nature of the beast.

I saw the gun shop one, it was very interesting. I thought the men running the shop were excellent, especially that class they ran. The gun range bit made me fecking shiver though. I thought 'there goes the 6 year old playing behind the target' or 'that one would have hit the little old lady on the other side of the street'. Incredible.
