The 50 Greatest Documentaries is a definitive three-hour guide to, and celebration of, the wealth and variety of factual programming shown both theatrically and on TV in the UK.

Selected in terms of their craft, innovation and impact, the list was initially compiled by a panel of experts and voted on by a representative peer poll of industry professionals, film makers and television critics. Major filmmakers who contribute to the programme include Nick Broomfield, Paul Watson, Molly Dineen, Morgan Spurlock, Louis Theroux, David Attenborough, Michael Palin, Kevin MacDonald, Leon Gast, Paul Hamann, David Puttnam and Michael Apted.
