    I'm a documentary geek
    Just watched "Marley" about Bob Marley. All the food docs are good..."Hungry For Change" is an eye opener. "Food Inc" too. My favs are the "Paradise Lost" ones about the West Memphis Three. I've seen those all several times over. Of course "Blackfish", but if you love docs I'm sure you've seen that one already.

    A massive David Attenborough fan here so anything on his list. The Blue Planet, Planet Earth, The Life of Mammals/Birds etc. I also love to watch Louix Theroux, have you ever seen any of his work?

    Currently watching German Concentration Camps: Factual Survey. Documentary by Alfred Hitchcock and Sidney Bernstein but was banned by the British Government for 70+ years.
    WARNING - Raw footage from soldier cameramen while Concentration Camps were being liberated. Very difficult to watch.

    Fed up-on Netflix. It's wonderful and a huge eye opener on the things we intake.

    That's another good one. I'm kind of obsessed with the food docs. Definite eye openers.

    I watch loads of documentries on YouTube. Anything to do with Great White sharks lol. From a sports point of view "If you don't take it, you wont make it" about the 100m athletics final in Seoul Olympics. "Bigger, Faster, Stronger" and "Super size me" is always a classic. I also watch a few conspiracy things on the Moon landing etc. Loads of fun.

    Oh, and anything to do with iconic figures that interest me such as Elvis, John Lennon, Muhammed Ali etc. I even watched one on Charles Manson the other day lol.
