The life and death row documentaries on iplayer are really good.

The real CSI is back next month on BBC ONE. New series starts 1 March. I love this programme!
Is there any real crime books people would recommend?
They're old but definitely The Jigsaw Man and Picking Up The Pieces by Paul Britton. They cover some very high profile cases he was involved in.
I have a few!
The Stranger Beside Me by Ann Rule is about Ted Bundy, written by Rule who was helping police catch him without knowing he was actually a friend of hers. Excellent book. She has written loads of other good true crime books too, such as Small Sacrifices about Diane Downs, the mother who shot her children.
Others I recommend are Somebody’s Mother, Somebody’s Daughter about the Yorkshire Ripper investigation, and Happy Like Murderers, a really detailed book about Fred and Rose West. Their daughter Mae has also written a book about her life growing up in Cromwell Street, which is also very good. That’s called Love as Always, Mum.
And another excellent book is called Escape From Evil, written by Peter Tobin’s ex wife Cathy which details her hellish life with him.
Two of my faves.
I read To Hunt a Killer about finding Melanie Road’s killer last year and it’s very good.
The Secret Barrister & The Dark Side of The Mind are really good
The sleep of reason by David James Smith.
Yes I have seen it, how the police dealing with this utter horror on a daily basis I really don’t know.
Hunting around for something of interest to watch I happened upon this documentary.
Found it really interesting.
Some 'interesting' people out there!
I know I haven't watched everything out there but it's so time consuming deciding what to 'give it a watch' & not waste that time.

My problem is that I watch EVERYTHING, I have Netflix on my iPad and I watch it all the time when I'm doing jobs around the house e.g. laundry, making beds etc - to get me through the after work chores. But because i watch so much - i forget what I've watched. I'm 100% sure I've watched this but its already fallen out of my head.
I’m the same
Can I apologise for the double use of the word 'interesting' up there 
It's probably been mentioned before on here but I find the the YouTube channel ExploreWithUs very good. The footage is all body cam and from the actual interviews
Stopping by to recommend Accused: Did I Do It? On the Crime & Investigation channel. Think it’s a rebranding of Accused: Guilty or Innocent. Both are a good watch. The series follows alleged perpetrators and their lawyers in the lead up to criminal cases, including the verdict at the end. Some of the episodes have footage from the trials too.
It's not a rebranding - it's a spin off show. The first (and only so far) season of it ran almost parallel with the last season of Accused: Guilty or Innocent? in the USA.
Have seen them all. Both are excellent watches, although it makes me really angry/bewildered every single episode. Sometimes the rage is off the bleeping scale. There's one particular case featured on Accused: Guilty or Innocent? (and it also had a follow up episode) that I still think about a lot - I was completely bereft for a few days afterwards.
I HATE THE USA JUSTICE SYSTEM!
But I won't stop watching
