Check out another Adam Curtis documentary Bitter Lake.
I still think its there somewhere on BBC iPlayer.
Goes a long way to explaining why the world is what it is today since the Americans met the Saudis at Bitter Lake in 1945. Basically, let us have your Oil and we will leave you alone.
His follow up doc (which I can't recall the name) goes onto explain how the City of New Yorks financial crisis in the 70s allowed Banks and financial institutions to govern how the world works.

Mark Felton on YouTube is good for WW2 stories.

I use it for falling asleep after being on nights (not cos it’s boring, docs just help me nod off!).

Anyone seen 'everything is a rich man's trick' documentary? The full 3 hour 40 minute version is mind blowing in places.

Compelling and beautifully made examination of the incredible work of the Sherpa people of the Himalayas in facilitating the aspirations of climbers, and the resulting risks and tensions, culminating in a tragic loss on the mountain.

Highly recommended.

On Netflix but comes off in a few days.

Oh this is good, I watched it a few weeks ago. The main lesson that I took away was not to call a sherpa a "motherf***er".

Yeah, they really frown on that lol .

That fella that accused the (seemingly non existent) agitators of terrorism and invoking 9/11 was asking for a drop into a crevasse, entitled knobhead.

Yes, apparently the sherpas were "militants" for wanting to honour their dead. You could see through that guy easily; money mad.

Seen a lot of his stuff, the one about when New York was taken over by thebanks was brilliantly done.
All his docs are worth watching.
