Documentary Recommendations

6pairsofshoes:
Does anyone regularly watch documentaries?  This is a thread for recommendations of good non-fiction or educational programs.

We've been watching two series produced by the BBC with the V&A museum.  One on Metalworks and the other Ceramics: a fragile history.  These are not readily available for viewing on US tv, and there is not much good on design produced in the States compared to the UK.

smokester:
Virtually any documentary produced by the BBC is a guaranteed winner.  80% of my Sky+ box's memory is chocked full of them. 

I particularly liked Walking with Dinosaurs and Frozen Planet.

And every Horizon ever made.

Oh, I was going to mention Horizon!

I found this one on bread very interesting:
Bread: A Loaf Affair http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00rm508

I was trying to find the dinosaur documentary I had watched.  It was talking about a decline in their species before that they were destroyed by said natural disaster. 
I looked. 

I love watching Henry Rollins.  He did a line of documentaries with National Geographic. 

dweez:
I love documentaries...in theory but I never seem to watch any.  I've "acquired" some, say "Planet Earth" and they sit on my hdd until I need the space.  Sad I know.
