Just finished the Madeline McCann one and like any true life/crime type documentaries.

OP posts:

The Miami show band one. They were blown up by the UVF with collaboration by the British secret service.

hibbledibble · 31/03/2019 20:26

Flint town. Really eye opening.

MillyMolly123 · 31/03/2019 20:28

The Ted Bundy Tapes

Abducted in Plain Sight

Evil Genius

All jaw droppingly insane, WTF moments galore.

NoTNoShade · 31/03/2019 20:29

The one about the staircase.

CaptainJaneway62 · 31/03/2019 20:29

Abducted In Plain Sight...this is a chilling true story

Dirty John...it's a dramatisation of true events

HeyCarrieAnneWhatsYourGame · 31/03/2019 20:29

The Staircase. Fascinating.

Therailone85 · 31/03/2019 20:32

Making a Murderer! And every single other one stated!

Also have a look at The Keepers.

wrongnamechange · 31/03/2019 20:33

The Keepers is compelling!

YemenRoadYemen · 31/03/2019 20:38

Place-marking 📺

MillyMolly123 · 31/03/2019 20:43

Oh yes, Therailone85, I forgot to mention Making a Murderer in my first post.

OP, it’s a definite must watch if you’re into that sort of thing, which you evidently are. I’d watch MaM over all of the others listed thus far (it is quite long though)

nauseous5000 · 31/03/2019 20:45

The Fyre doc is fascinating- different type of crime tho!

MillyMolly123 · 31/03/2019 20:46

Amanda Knox is also worth a watch once you’ve made you’re way through all the ones listed above.

It’s not as compelling as many others, but interesting nonetheless.

PineapplePatty · 31/03/2019 20:46

Louist Thereaux are always good

Ivegotthree · 31/03/2019 20:47

The Staircase

Wild Wild Country

SeaViewBliss · 31/03/2019 20:48

I second Fyre.

It’s not something you might naturally watch if you like true crime but it’s fascinating.

Coronapop · 31/03/2019 20:49

The one about the wine faker, sorry cannot recall the name.

ShinyMe · 31/03/2019 20:51

Not Netflix, but have you seen the Yorkshire Ripper one that was on BBC 4 last week? It's in 3 parts, and must be on iPlayer. It was superb - very very shocking in its misogyny and outdated attitudes, and the awful police investigation. I thought it was really extremely well made, very moving, and very shocking.

KC225 · 31/03/2019 20:52

Abducted in Plain Sight

Fyre

Diana in her words. (The Andrew Morten tapes. A fascinating insight)

VincentVanGoughandhisear · 31/03/2019 20:52

Dirty John.

YouWereRight · 31/03/2019 20:53

The fear of 13 is incredible.

Time : the Kalief Browser story is amazing, but heartbreaking.

Evil Genius and Abducted in Plain Sight, and Longshot are good too.

SweetMarmalade · 31/03/2019 21:01

Adding some of these suggestions to ‘my list’.

As suggested, The Staircase is compelling viewing.

I need to go back to Making a Murderer. Watched most of the first one and then didn’t go back to it.

Started watching Formula 1 which could be interesting, not sure yet.

Love, Death & Robots is fab. Little short stories, a bit crazy and not crime documentaries but add to your watch list all the same.

dayswithaY · 31/03/2019 21:27

The Witness, Amanda Knox, Forensic Files, The Keepers, Cropsey.

PissOffPeppa · 31/03/2019 21:38

The Staircase is great.

The Imposter is also chilling- About someone who faked the identity of a missing boy and was returned to the family.

Shylo · 31/03/2019 21:44

There is a series called dirty money which is very good - all about it financial scandals. the one on maple syrup is probably worth a swerve but the ones on HSBC and VW are great

Littlewhitedove · 31/03/2019 22:17

Just been watching Captive...a series of kidnap/hostage stories. Also have a look at Behind the Curve. It's about people who believe the earth is flat....!!
