Documentaries worth watching

It’s very good indeed.

On episode 2. It’s excellent

Thought it was let down by a poor third and final episode which concentrated too much on the documentary makers rather than the telemarketers.

Totally agree. Final episode was shite. Just left up in the air for a finish.

watched the james blunt documentary on netflix last night. blunt comes across very well. also delves into the redtops tearing him down after he became famous.

seems like an alright sort and even admits youre beautiful was massively overplayed.

Brilliant short documentary

George Best’s time in Cork City covered in a doc on tg4 there now. A good watch. Our Cork posters in particular will enjoy it. Best comes out of it as a bit of a cunt unsurprisingly.

That period of the LOI is interesting. Teams signing “big names” to make short term money.

You’d Bobby Charlton at Waterford and Rodney Marsh was over too. I’m sure Sligo had Dixie Dean at one point. Obviously a long time before Best and all came over.
