I love watching documentaries. I’ve watched probably thousands of them over the years and I wouldn’t be able to tell you my absolute favourite. So I will just tell you about some of the documentaries I have watched recently that I think you should check out. All of them are available on Netflix right now.

  1. Queen of Chess

If you have read my earlier posts you will know that I like playing chess. So this documentary about Judit Polgar, a Hungarian chess grandmaster, is right up my street. Polgar was a child chess prodigy and became the youngest person to ever become a grandmaster at 15 years and 4 months. She is retired from competitive chess now but she was the female number one for 26 years in a row which is still a record. This documentary is great because it tells you about her life and achievements which is fascinating and also features Polgar herself talking about her life. Definitely worth a watch if you are interested in chess.

2. Should I Marry a Murderer
