What do you love watching documentaries about?

[Pixiesgirl]

For some reason I'm on a chernobyl kick again. Would like some ideas for new subjects 😀

Sharks or anything ocean animal themed also Alice Levine did a really good series about sex a few years ago… so sharks or sex 😂

Forensics!

Extreme engineering, Ocean liners, Egypt.

Nat Geo has a great channel. Yesterday has some good stuff, if you like history, as well

Killers, Hoarders, Aircrash Investigation.
Currently obsessed with My 600lb Life

Mountain climbing
True crime
Some wild life ones - eg Gordon Buchanan watching bears

Mountain climbing /rock climbing for me too! Not a hobby I would ever want to do myself though!

Mountaineering always does it for me.

Espionage, organised crime and the Cold War. I'm a barrel of laughs.

Cults, MLMs, True Crime, Religion, Travel, Food, unexplained mysteries

Keeping with the nuclear theme, have you watched Into Eternity? About a Finnish nuclear waste repository. It's brilliant.

Anything by Dr. Lucy Worsley
Ghosts on the London underground
Anything to do with social history

I'm glad I started this haha feel free to provide links ].

I also got obsessed with my 600lb life, but it's was too depressing in the end. Also how the fuck do these bedbound people have enough money to A maintain that weight and B have huge trucks and relocate on a whim

Different countries and the way they live.
Life changing operations.
Space and the environment on earth.

Cheers, will watch that tonight. Watched one today about the construction of the new sarcophagus, was pretty impressive.

I love watching documentaries about building things - bridges,the huge buildings in London,the London underground tube network etc. I watched a great one a year or so ago about how the building that is nicknamed 'The Cheese Grater' in London was built. Fascinating. I sometimes think I'm a frustrated civil engineer 😂

Everest.., the holocaust.. true crime.. miraculous survival stories... also those behind the job ones like airport/the hotel/ educating Yorkshire etc!

I love a good religious cult documentary but if none available I'll settle for serial killers or mysterious crimes / disasters 😬

Also 9/11 is endlessly fascinating. I don't think there's anything I haven't seen or heard about it but I still feel compelled to watch whenever something is on.

Murders. DH says the Sky planner looks like a guide to killing your husband and getting away with it!

Politics, miscarriages of justice, history. I like to know the facts and am not a fan of salacious schaudenfreude stuff

Tornados. It's a full obsession at this point 🙈

Are you me?! 😂 I like all those too

the Tundra, nomads, Sami people,

Any thing archaeological. Loving Dig for Britain at the moment.

In fact anything that Prof Alice Roberts presents I will watch.

Also love Who Do You Think You Are, DNA stories.

A House Theough Time was interesting too.

History geek here.

Netflix True Crime.
Social history.
Love Dr Worsley and Prof Beard but I don't have a TV licence and both are on the BBC ☹️.
