Watched these last couple of nights, what an arrogant human being, complete dick of a man, chaos everywhere he went and consumed by greed

"Am I beautiful", eh, No! Absolute ****bag of a man.

That was proper weirdo material, good recommendation by the way, never heard of it till you mentioned it, hope there is a follow up to what he does next

Malice at the Palace on Netflix about a riot at a Detroit V Indiana basketball game, I didn't know the story but it's brilliant

Just watched it, great story. The Pacers hard man Artest was my favourite, ‘I just don’t like, errr… people’

Watched this last night really enjoyed it as well

Also watching cocaine cowboys which is some story if not about a pretty over played subject of smugglers and suppliers running a mock in the 1980s

The disappearance of the Millbrook Twins was quite an interesting watch. The attitude of the Atlanta police was/is well out of order.

That sounds like my kind of program, what was it on?

I’d like to add Say Her Name - The Life and Death of Sandra Bland on Now TV.

If you are into music, DIG! Is brilliant, about the Brian jonestown massacre & The Dandy warhols

I haven't gone through the entire thread, so my apologies if it's already been recommended, but 'We Were Here', a documentary about the very early days of AIDS in San Francisco as told by those who lived through it, is outstanding and very moving. If you haven't seen it and have a spare hour-and-a-half, it gives an excellent account of the destruction and the fear created by a plague which appeared from nowhere and wiped out much of a community in the early 1980s.

One of my favourite documentary series is the BBC's 'Death of Yugoslavia' from the 1990s. The historiography has moved on since it was made, but it still provides an excellent introduction for those wanting to learn about Yugoslavia's collapse and descent into civil war. The BBC at its best, the whole series is on You Tube.

Cheers for that, will give it a watch, we went on holiday to Yugoslavia when I was a kid and the troubles happened a year or two later, I've always been interested in it since

For true crime fans: 'This Is The Zodiac Speaking'. I really enjoyed this look at one of the most unusual, infamous and still unsolved serial killers. If there is any surviving forensic evidence, genetic genealogy might crack the case as it has other old murders.

Crossfire Hurricane - The Rolling Stones

One of the best Stones documentaries will be on the iPlayer I’m guessing as it was on BBC1 as a tribute to Charlie.

[Mon Dieu4]

The Untold series on Netflix continues to be amazing, Crimes and Penalties the latest one about an Ice Hockey Team that a mob boss puts his 17 year old son in charge of is quality

Watch something about his warmongering and breaking countless laws afterwards and I'm sure he will go back down again

BBC4 last night a programme called Garage People, it's about Russian's who live in the artic circle and the different uses they have for their garage/lock up.

It isn't a whole lot of fun, but enjoyable watching people get on in a tough place to live

Just started on Sky Arts about the teenage groupies of the Hollywood rockstars.

Great Ken Buchanan documentary was just on BBC Scotland, you will get it on iPlayer

Surviving Squalor: Britain's Housing Shame. On ITV Player.

No words could describe just how bad the housing conditions shown are, you'd need to watch it to believe it.

[Smartie]

That "The man Putin couldn't kill" thing that was on channel 4 the other night was superb.

Those high rise flats in Croydon were disgusting. I felt physically sick watching that. How anyone can be expected to live like that is beyond me.

I know. I found myself feeling really angry for the residents. It said episode one, so there may be more to follow.

It sure isn’t. Crazy that Steven Tyler got away with that the title of the programme is spot on.
