    Didn’t really pay much attention to this case at the time but enjoyed the documentary on Sky. Her and her family are * nuts and pathological liars. It’s unbelievable that none of them are doing jail time for what happened to the poor kid.

    Cheers. The one I watched was far more sympathetic towards her and seemed to point the finger at her dad.
    No idea why you would party for a month after your dad killed your daughter though :39:.
    Looks to me like she’s a total psychopath and extremely fortunate to avoid the death penalty.

    It really sickened at the end. That youtube channel is excellent and very popular but only gets videos out once in a blue moon. Ill watch the one you mentioned. I don't remember there being much on the Dad at all.

    The Beckham Documentary is excellent.

    I always liked him and he comes across really well. So does Victoria.

    Absolutely love Keane. Slagging him for buying expensive pens and then sticking up for him when the country hated him.

    Watched this. Thought when she had a visit from her mum and dad while she was being detained was very very off. Especially when her dad took over the phone.

    Beckham documentary was outstanding. He was some player. Mental what he had to put up with (abuse and fanatical attention). Seems like a really good chap and dad.

    I enjoyed this as well. Seems like a decent guy and well respected by everybody he played with.

    I've only read the last page of this thread, so apologies if I'm recommending something that's already been covered. Years ago I stumbled across a series of documentaries by Ken Burns titled 'Americas National Parks'. It comprises of 6 × 2hour long episodes, and tells the story from the very beginning and details the exploits of Scotsman John Muir who's idea it was, and then documents the entire history of what I would consider to be perhaps America's greatest achievement, the creation of National Parks and the protection of incredible wilderness and wildlife. The series is done in what's now known in documentary making as 'the Ken Burns style' and is an absolute masterpiece in the art of TV documentary making, couple that with what is a fantastic story of human endeavour, and then throw in the absolutely spectacular subject matter of the landscapes themselves.........and you've got an absolutely brilliant and insightful 12 hours of viewing in which to immerse yourself. I could provide a long list of fabulous documentaries I've seen, but if I had to pick one documentary maker, it would definitely be Ken Burns. And if I had to pick one of his works, it would be a tough choice, but I'd go with the story of the National Parks. As I said before, if you're into documentary type television, this is a masterpiece.

    FFS........I should be on a commission after that write up lol.

    Sounds good. There is a show with the same title on disney. 8 episodes about 45 minutes each. Could that be the one?
