Documentary

What documentary do you like? For me, it is the Discovery Channel Travels (it's obvious..) or anything that Ian Wright is in... That guy's just hilarious... The way he presents really makes you wanting to travel to where he is...

I quite enjoy nature documentary's, and you can't beat World's Wildest Police Videos for pure cheesyness.

How about Crocodile Hunter? Steve Irwin really shows the best of Australia

(Unfortunately we don't all live in the outback and wrestle crocs on a daily basis)

The best three series' of documentaries I have seen are (in no particular order) Scama's A History of Britain, The World at War and Holokaust.

The worlds wildest police chases isn't really a top drawer documentary, it doesn't even show fatal chases.

Life Of Grime was a reasonable documentary-like show, which I know simply because near enough ever week there was someone from Salford on it...

The Mark Williams and Chris Barrie series on Discovery were very good in my opinion...

And for the record - Police, Camera, Action whoops World's Wildest Police Chases' ass...

Booze Britain falls into the same catagory of low class television. I watched the Newcastle on to see if I knew any of the featured drunks.

History documentaries always interest me. History books are pretty dry and boring, but good documentaries have a certain interactive element.

Are you referring to those of National Geographic/Discovery Channel that show documentaries of Pyramids, Great Wall of China, Civil Wars, Mammoth and the likes?

Yeah, especially the ones with the reinactments. Although a bit crap (they probably take the amateur actors or something), a reinacted battle is always something interesting.
