More he said/she said with no new actual evidence.

Frankly I'm tired of hearing about this.

Contrary to the article stating there were no documentaries that wouldn't parrot the conclusions of the Warren Commission, I remember watching a BBC documentary about JFK's assassination. They mentioned 4 videos were available, stabilized and enhanced them, with the logical outcome: there were several shooters present that day.

Anyone able to recall the title? Curious now - where can I re-watch it?

Thanks!

This isn't that, but an excellent video on the events of the day, around the building, and left me thinking there could have been any number of other shooters;

Watched that video. Very well done I’d say. But I think the point made in the video is that the one remotely consistent thing about the ear witness accounts was that very few heard shots from multiple locations.
This seems like stuff that has been known for decades. Most people have already made up their mind about this one way or another.
60-year old memory testimony isn't very reliable and doesn't mean much. The fact that they've repeated/relived that testimony over and over actually counts against it being reliable too.
Kevin Costner ruined the JFK story for me.

Every time I hear Kennedy's name, all I can think of is, "back and to the left...back and to the left...back and to the left....back and to the left".

Kevin Costner ruined baseball in cornfields for me.

The odd thing about this article is that the Warren Commission's conclusions were based on the doctors who worked on JFK at the hospital [1] (Warren Report, pages 18-19):

    The Commission based its findings primarily upon the testimony of 
    the doctors who had treated the President at Parkland Memorial
    Hospital in Dallas and the doctors who performed the autopsy on
    the President at the Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Md.
Has anyone seen the documentary? Do they explain if they changed their minds?
