I love a good documentary. If you have the opportunity, try to catch Everest Rocks. I saw it last night on a new HD channel (Time Warner) called Palladia. It's about a group that did a 14-day trek thru the Himalayas to raise awareness for the need for a cancer hospital in Kathmandu. It's affiliated with the Love Hope Strength Foundation. Not only was it a moving documentary (most trekkers either survived cancer or had family/friends that succumbed to the disease) but it was amazingly entertaining. Several of the trekkers are 80's UK rockers like Mike Peters (The Alarm), Glenn Tilbrook (Squeeze), Cy Curnin (The Fixx), Nick Harper and others. They perform acoustically throughout. I highly recommend you check this out. It's a well worth an 1.5 hours. Wished it had been 3 hours.
