Must see documentaries..

You asked for the most unbiased documentary, and that surely is is? You cant get any more unbiased, it has to be the most researched and detailed documentary I have ever seen, and is heavily contributed to by the actual players who were involved in it. I cant see how bias can even be levelled at it, it is a detailed factual account.
It seems the bias is yours; you are looking to watch something that fits with your narrative

lol ok
 
Have you seen the 3 part 'paradise lost'? - easily the best in the genre for me..

There a few....

Cropsey
The thin blue line
The imposter
Central Park 5
Brothers keeper
I've seen all them; the West Memphis 3 trilogy are definitely the best as you say, we've seen all them other too but was hoping there might be one we may have overlooked
 
Britain's Forgotten Men

Many white working-class men are struggling in today’s society - low education, poor jobs, high crime.

Filmmaker Dan Murdoch spends a year on the fringes of Manchester in some of Britain's most deprived estates. He finds anger, resentment and frustration. But he also finds a spirit of camaraderie among the estates that are fighting to stay above water - fighting not to be forgotten.

In this episode, Mikey puts on a party for his community and Jordan tries to survive on the streets.

Best 30 for 30 for me is 'Once Brothers' If you've not seen it worth a watch.

Agree with wally on best OJ doc..
Just watched your recommendation, it was excellent, cheers.
Agree with Wally on OJ too, can't fault that series, one of the best I've seen and was very comprehensive.

Anyone interested in the troubles conflict may like Peter Taylors's series, three in total:
Provo's, Loyalists & Brits

This documentary on collusion, shown on RTE (Irish Television) was also a very important report:

The Staircase is good, there's also The Jinx, and although it's not a 'did he or didn't he' doc, The Fear Of 13 is fascinating too

I have to thank you for this, I read it last week and thought I fancied The Jinx. I had a quiet week after work and so got into it every evening this week and fuck me that was a good watch
 
Just watched 30 for 30 Catholics vs Convicts and I just think wouldn't it be great if the did the 2011/12 season about us and united I think ESPN are second to non doing these
 
Sorry if already posted, but The Imposter is phenomenal. It's on Netflix for anyone interested.
 
Germany's New Nazis
Panorama
Violent right-wing extremism in Germany has surged to its highest level since the downfall of the Third Reich, with a record number of attacks against asylum seekers and their supporters. Panorama has spent six months in Freital, a small town at the heart of the new wave of far-right terror.

As Germany goes to the polls, this film hears how long-held taboos are being broken in a country still haunted by its Nazi legacy and far-right views are becoming mainstream once more. Across the world, far-right extremists have been on the march, from Charlottesville in the United States to the suburbs of Paris and the streets of Manchester. But how worried should we be by the rise of the far right in Europe's most powerful country?

(BBC 1 tonight at 10.45)
