TV's Theroux returns to BBC Two
Yay! Let's hope it's a return to the Weird Weekend style show rather than the Louis Meets . . . series though! |

Brilliant! I was wondering the other day if we'd ever see him again.
I think there's someone who might very well be his brother doing a documentry (on channel 4 I think) soon too! Does anyone know if this is true?...or did I just dream it?! |

So did anyone see it yesterday?
The Most Hated Family in America For those that did, I know everyone is entitled to there own views and opinions but as a gay man if I'd met any member of that church or family I'd happily introduce my fist to their face! Still a great opening episode though and I wonder how many complaints the BBC will get about the Princess Diana whore banner that was shown. |

QUOTE (Baz @ Apr 2 2007, 10:46 AM) So did anyone see it yesterday? Yep It's not strictly a series, Louis is making ten documentaries for the BBC to be shown over three years. Last night was the second. Could be months before the next one. More to the pity. |

I liked what I saw, but I missed a lot (forgot it was on). Even the bit I saw showed them to have really confused dogma.

The head of that church was so obviously just an angry man with no clue about anything he was saying. Fair enough that he didn't answer Louis' question about how many kids he had but when he approached him with intelligent questions that he obviously didn't want to/or know the answers to he just shot them down as stupid while everyone looked on and smiled laughing at how intelligent and great he is.
What I found the most depressing was that the bloke who claimed to be an intelligent journalist was taken in by it all and brought his whole family into the church. Also, the emotional warring that you could see going on in the minds of some of the young girls was genuinely sad to watch as they fought with what they were told to believe against what they actually see in the world. It was one of those programmes that I felt genuinely drained after watching although it made for great viewing. This post has been edited by Jimmay: Apr 2 2007, 10:34 AM |

But in doing so, they'd claim you're proving them right. You can't win with that sort of zealot, I mean, we're talking about a set of people who want to ban Swedish vacuum cleaners. |

I might have missed their reason but I couldn't work out what they had against Swedish vacuum cleaners. Were they like Austin Power's Swedish "vacuum cleaner"? |

A Swedish pastor had been stopped by the government from preaching that all gays were evil, etc. That was apparently reason enough to hate all Swedes. |

a swedish court had taken a dim view of a preacher who was taking a similar stance to them. hence, sweden became their target. as sweden was a plane ride too far, a shop which sold swedish made vacuum cleaners was their best bet...
the mind boggles... |
