Wow. This blew my mind and made me cry. Anna Breytenbach communicates with animals telepathically, and as hard as that may be to believe, the documentary shows several examples of her being able to relay very specific details about these animals pasts that she could not have possibly known. Some sceptical scientists join her for some of these interactions, which include some pretty powerful moments, and in the end cannot deny the validity of her abilities. Highly recommended.

I have not seen this yet but I do believe animals, domestic pets have an in-depth connection with their owners. Animals know when we are upset or ill or are in distress. A long while ago a friend of mine had done something silly while I was asleep at their flat. Their dog jumped on the bed I was sleeping in, which it never would have done. And started pawing at my face, and licking my face and barking until I got up to see what had happened. The dog was alerting me because it could not waken it's owner. The dog saved it's owners life.

Amazing. Yes, they absolutely do have a very strong connection with their owners. My friends had a similar experience when their baby daughter was having a seizure and their dog immediately alerted them.

The channel the doc is from has some great documentaries and I'm now just in the middle of watching this one about unlikely friendships between humans and animals, and they also have some good ones about unusual animal friendships. Really fascinating.

The Man With The Seven Second Memory. Fascinating, sad, but ultimately very inspiring, especially the relationship between him and his wife. It's incredible what love can endure.

The best documentary series I've ever seen, OJ: Made in America, is currently being repeated by the BBC and it's also on the iPlayer. It's an epic saga, jaw-droppingly fascinating and kind of mind-bending. It's about seven hours long too, so it's perfect for these times.

Just finished this 6 part documentary on Monty Python on Netflix. Really entertaining, comprehensive look at everything Python with great input from the surviving members.

I last saw "I am Patrick Swayze". It was a good documentary that summarized a lot of his career and some about his private life. They totally glossed over North & South though.

Road - the history of the Dunlop family in road racing.

Even knowing everything that it tells, it is absolutely engrossing to watch.

Murder in The Outback - Joanne Lees and Peter Falconio story.

It cast a lot of doubt on Joanne's statement.

Oh they absolutely absolutely do.

My beloved boy, my cat, is so in tune with me that when I have been going through some very stressful times, it's actually affected him - I've obviously got to the bottom of this and know how to help us both, but we are sooooooooooo close. He's my boy. My love.

My beloved Yorkie who passed last month :( was sad when we were sad, picked up on our moods and could tell us if something was wrong in the house.

No one could ever convince me that animals aren't perceptive. They're more intelligent and sensitive than the majority of humans.
