It is a bout an odd-ball guy in Inverness who is a local 'hero', raising lots for charity by doing challenging swims, is commended by the police for keeping the community safe, etc. There's a dark side to him, though and he does a runner just as he's about to be brought to justice and ends up faking his apparent death.
Search for Dispatches on the iPlayer, though as nothing comes up by searching the actual name of the episode :rolleyes:
Aye, that's the one.Quote:

Just getting round to this now, there really are some sinister characters going about in the corridors of power on this planet.Quote:

The scenes with the Killer Whales trying to capture and kill the young whale were fascinating, brutal and brilliant at the same time.Quote:

Ministry of Evil - The Twisted Cult of Tony Alamo on iPlayer, at the end of the 3rd episode he looks like the double of Gary Glitter and was behaving in the same manner as him when it comes to underage girls.
Pompeii : The New Dig . Interesting stuff
I watched that, excellent to see the near perfect condition of some of the artefacts and buildings, considering it was over 2000 years ago, the carbonised round loaf of bread reminded me of my Wifes baking 🫣Quote:

When evil came to Rochdale on My5, absolutely mental 😳
Abused by Mum - The Ruby Franke Scandal on My5, horrible viewing, particularly the 911 call from the neighbour.
I'm about half way through a Steve Martin documentary on Apple TV. It's really good so far, all from the horses mouth and has his only private videos and notebooks. Similar style to the Garry Shandling documentary which is also great if you've not seen it.
Imposter: The man who came back from the dead, 4 parter on Channel 4 about Nicholas Rossi/ Arthur Knight, halfway through so far, intriguing stuff! 😳
Great, will be giving that a watch, he is as bonkers as that Baby Reindeer character 😳Quote:

The thing that does make me suspicious about the breathing difficulties is that it doesn't seem to stop him being able to get riled in a press situation. For example, the clip in the first episode where he is on some (I assume) American news show and he goes a bit OTT with a rant and tries to get out of the wheelchair.Quote:
