Anyone else here love his programmes?

There's a new one on this sunday, "A City Addicted To Crystal Meth", should be good.

I think he's great the way he conducts himself around the people he meets and considering some of the places he's been.

paul16v

Yeh i really like watching him, some of the mad places he has been and the questions he ask's make really good viewing.

Robski

i loved his jimmy saville programme,he exposed the weirdo for what he is...most of his programmes have been pretty good IMO...can't wait for the new ones!

Yeh his programs are really interesting.

It was from the "When Louis Met..." series. He stayed with him for a while, and yes he is rather an odd character, lol.

The Chris Eubank one was well funny, and the Hamiltons one was a quality programme.

I highly recommend this box set, they're all on there

I really like his methods. He doesn't conduct himself as a normal journalist interviewer type, and he comes across very naive, which allows whoever he is interviewing to speak more freely, and in the case of celebs, it panders to their ego's and they almost try to shock, cos of his naive approach. However I think he is FAR from naive, and is actually a very very clever and calculating man, who is very good at what he does and acts his part very well indeed.....

Mike C

iTrader: (1)

Very true, he puts them at ease without them really knowing.

JLStretton

Spot on, that Thrush

Love him his shows are great viewing

CaftDunt

As above great viewing.

Did anyone see the episode where he went to a prison for paedophiles. I don't know what he thought he'd get out of that one, but imo I didn't think that one was right. The cunts who were living there should have all been put into a small room and gassed.

Ellie

Yeah i saw it and thought he presented it really well. He's not afraid to be blunt with his questions.

You might not agree of housing paedo's in that facility but the programme was still good.

Going to watch the crystal meth one, im sure itll be interesting.

CaftDunt

Oh yeah I agree with what your saying, I think it's more the principle of them still getting a small quality of life they don't deserve. Wasn't it each inmate getting $100,000.00 a year to keep them there.

And about the bluntness, don't you think he comes across as being a bit nieve (sp?) about things in a funny way. He's the best person to do the off the wall documentary's anyway

Ellie

Do you think he's naive or is he asking the questions he thinks the viewers would want to know?

But yeah, that place must cost an absolute fortune, and only 1 person had ever been 'rehabilitated' back into the community anyway.

CaftDunt

I don't think he's naive, it's just his mannerisms when he approaches people with his questions which makes me think "if he acts naive he'll be safe". If that makes any sense, don't want to come across as contradicting myself?

He's obviously a clever bloke who can place himself in any given situation asking the most awkward questions and not get any major grief about it.

Mike C

As said, he puts them at ease, and poses his questions in a non-threatening manner, so people tend to open up more, even if they set out to try and resist.

He's as neutral as he possibly can be around people, and makes sure he's never too judgemental, just factual.

I think he's brilliant myself.

Cheers for the heads up as i never knew. Would be gutted to miss at as his programmes are brilliant.

Last was the paedo one i think. Fucking cunts on there

The red neck nazi prog was pretty good

Mike C

iTrader: (1)

Was that the one with Lamb & Lynx? And those pikey red neck skinheads who kept saying "Are you a fuckin' Jew?" In their slack-jawed yocal accents?

Lambchop

iTrader: (1)

They werent the singers were they?

The kids brainwashed by their mothers to sing that shit was mental!

Mike C

iTrader: (1)

Yeah that's them!

CaftDunt

Bump.... 9pm BBC2 tonight folks!!!!

Maria.

I think hes fab!

I enjoyed the one he did on plastic surgery!

Less.

Will be watching this,anyone see the one he did with demolition derby people

orionmojo

iTrader: (1)

Cheers for the heads up I Completly agree with waht thrush said. makes for great viewing.



can i also add:

This is the most sensible and grown up discussion i've ever seen on PF

bad boy rs

iTrader: (7)

good job you posted this mate i forgot about this prog, hes brilliant the way he pretty much muggs them off to their faces, love it

Dangerous Malcolm..

Until I got involved......


He's good, I remember the wrestling thing he did, and another about a dominatrix type thing where the woman wanted to truss him up and 'broaden his horizons' with a big dildo!

Mike C

iTrader: (1)

I was only talking about that one today as I was having a conversation about liposuction!

That German bloke with the bicep implants was weird!

Crystal Meth one starting shortly, I just got home and nearly forgot!

Mike C

iTrader: (1)

He did alright in that, lol, got to the final, but decided he didn't wanna race in it!

The one guy in that who lived in the caravan looked like Spike Dudley.

Seriously, anyone who hasn't got the box set, buy it! For 11 quid it's a bargain!

Coldo

I liked the one he did in Harlem on the Black Supremacists/Nationalists/Racists, whatever you want to call them. Was pretty shocking some of it and i imagine intimidating in some of the situations he was in.

Watching this one now, should be good.

CaftDunt

I remember that one, that german bloke was called Adolf Poor bastard LOL...

Fil

doing it for 35years!

iTrader: (2)

im watching that programme right now

Ellie

Yeah, his wifes been at it for about 27yrs or something?
Cant beleive the human body can withstand that abuse.

This is the reason Sudafed only sell the 'congestion relief' (containing phenylehprine)


and started withdrawing the 'decongestant' (containing pseudoephedrine)


because people make speed and meth from it. Might still be on sale in smaller packsizes, im not sure.
I thing pseudoephedrine has been Prescription-Only in the USA for longer than here, then again, its piss easy to get prescriptions there.

Fil

Mmm brother and sister love

Fil

They didnt look to bad for all the abuse over the years, im sure in 35 years time ill look worse from all the beer

Oh i learnt how they make it from the cold stuff, from the series Breaking Bad

Mike C

iTrader: (1)

Hope he makes another soon.

Really wish he'd do another series of "When Louis Met..." or some more UK-based stuff.

Ellie

Probably!
I bet an alcoholic wouldnt be alive after 35yrs, let alone look reasonably alright!

CaftDunt

Good documentary, the first guy he interviewed was messed up

lol, I thought pretty much the same thing
