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.

People will always claim some form of bias when it comes to this subject, but 'Provos, Loyalists and Brits' is a 10-part trilogy that covers all three sides of the conflict. It's as good a place as any to start learning more about the conflict.

Aha, think I just watched the Brits one. Should I have watched them in a certain order?

Next on my list is the Israel - Palestine conflict so recommendations for that would be appreciated too.
 
Those documentaries by Peter Taylor on the Irish issue are excellent, he also did a great series on the security services called True Spies.

Planet earth by Attenborough is on now. Probably been said before but I'll say it again that Attenborough Is the best ever animal narrator of all time. I will be upset when he's no longer with us.

Just watching it. The racer snakes have freaked me out!
 
The Devil and Daniel Johnston is pretty much the best documentary I've ever seen. Incredibly well made and an incredible story.

 
Them fucking racer snakes chasing the Iguana was fucking awesome and scary as fuck, was happy the little fucker escaped haha, in fact i was cheering him on out loud.

Ha ha, I did the same, I was shouting, go on son, especially the one that got caught and got away. There was something very sinister about those snakes, reminded me a bit of the T1000 coming back together in Terminator 2 the way they all appeared from the side lines. I love those sea iguanas though, they just amuse me, sit in the sun for an hour or so, go deep sea diving for some greens, back out to the rock for a sun bathe and to snort salt out of their noses, all with a bit of a crazy look about them.

Attenborough back to his best last night, loved it.

Good watch, right?! I briefly met Johnston at a festival a few years back. I say 'met', but he's totally on a different planet, you don't get much out of him. Got a signed print, one of my favourite possessions!
