Mc Millions.
The Puppet Master

Both unbelievable true stories.

Not a documentary but "Old Enough" on Netflix is absolutely brilliant. Basically Japanese children are sent off shopping and then filmed to see how they get on.

Can anyone add anymore or even films based on true stores please?

I've just watched Hunting the Catfish Crime Gang on BBC iplayer.
I've listened to a lot of podcasts and watched a lot of Netflix series about scammers but this one really got to me. The scale of it and the abuse has really shocked me.

I watched the Bad Influence one as well because of this thread, and I think I won't look at any social media the same way again after these two series.

Most dangerous ways to school on YouTube is a brilliant series. There are loads of them about children from all over the world. It's amazing and humbling what they go through to get an education, when my kids moan so much about having to go to school.

Misha and the Wolves - outrageous, really upset me
The Last Dolphin King - interesting, but hard to watch because of the animal abuse (weirdly, it was shown only in passing, the focus of the story was not on that - but it was absolutely horrendous)
The Last Hours of Mario Bondo - really gripping, great story - I loved it
The House of Secrets: The Burari Deaths - seriously scary, like a horror film that came to life!!

Abducted in plain site on Netflix, absolutely mind blowing how naive (or stupid) the parents were!

I watched this a while ago. The parents were actually stark raving bonkers.
