    Louis Theroux

    I don't know how he's remotely considered a journalist. That, and he has the personality of it a brick.

    I think the opposite of both of those. His documentaries are all very good, he's great at being seemingly neutral and level headed in some really awkward situations with some horrible situations. He's been a guest in a few podcasts I listened to, he always comes across as funny, interesting and knowledgeable imho.

    The man is hilarious, but I think he is deliberately feeding to a certain moral high ground. It is easy to travel to America where given its' level of egalitarianism you can get some fairly extreme and outrageous social groupings and basically rip the piss out of them under the guise of trying to understand or promote their movement or lives. He is basically a fraud in all fairness. I still watch him though.

    The one I would throw under a bus is that Stacey Dooley. She is too pure to be true. She wades in with the auld virtue and moral high ground every time. I was delighted when she got a hiding in Africa a while back foe being a "white saviour". When you think about it how can you justify her double standards?

    In one breath she is interviewing murderers in a female prison with acute patronisation to enable her sell a television programme... then she is down in commonwealth Africa feeding the poor babies ( noble I admit ), but my point being that I sincerely doubt her genuine empathy. She has no problem using psychotic murders or other obscene persons to further her career, but that is all ok because I pick up African babies and kiss them on the cheek like Lady Diana used to.

    Anyone watch the Louis Theroux doc A Place for Pedophiles?

    Very depressing, and disturbing, but gripping at the same time.

    As I said, Louis's very good at getting people like this to dig a hole for themselves.

    I suggest never watching Billie JD Porter if you haven't already done so. She started doing documentaries around the same time Dooley did on BBC3. Thankfully she never took off in the same way.

    Of course, neither are as bad as our often-mentioned homegrown journo :D Vogue.

    That was such a good documentery.I think Louis gets everyone to open up because hes not hostile.Hes like their friend,and he listens to them.

    Another model turned...documentary maker? huh?

    Dooley was grand for a while, she seemed empathetic, imo. (You often get a real sense that documentary makers are more happy to have the camera pointed at themselves). Whereas Dooley used to get people to talk, I think she started to buy into her own hype.
    (Sort of similar Ross Kemp, imo).
    Documentaries should be lacking sensationalism as much as possible, or even allow two sides of the story to be told.
    If you start and end with the same angle in your 'documentary', then you're both biased, and you've failed to make a documentary-you've made a puff piece. (Case in point-Louise o'Neill's Asking for it).

    It’s one of the worst things about lads who have to knock the booze on the head. A lot of them get very preachy about the evils of drink.

    Dermot Bannon. For someone who looks like a rodent he fairly carries an aura of smugness.

    Oh God her. She's a youtuber who got a chatshow, and it turned out just as s**t as you'd imagine it would have.
    Then there were claims of her plagiarising material from other comedians, and she also has popped up in skin care adverts (over here even, the ads are shown on tv).

    She's part of the 'woke' brigade- as in nobody can be made fun of except 'priviliged cisgendered heterosexual white men'.

    He shoots up venom for kicks. He’s just declaring himself not particularly advanced, no harm in a bit of self deprecation why does the other fella get a pass

    Honestly these shows if you just go into them from an armchair tourist point of view they’re a lot more interesting. Just get your autism on and forget there’s even anyone there

    I detect a man with not much luck with the ladies, possible not a good looking man.
    These fine looking women who believe they are a perfect 10 are the ones you make a bee line to in clubs, every man that a 3/10 MUST hit on these women for the good of all men.
    She has put herself on a pedestal and weak men reinforce her opinion of herself that she is hot stuff, therefore ugly men MUST hit on her constantly, break her self belief, "i cant be all that if all of these ugly men believe they have a chance and keep hitting on me".
    This over time will make her rethink what she wants in a man, that 6 Foot 6 player now has competition from the 5 foot 5 nice guy with the heart of gold.
    So ugly men of Boards, it is your duty to hit on super hot women, make them doubt their status so that your or your brothers can succeed in picking them up.
    She is a cracker, any man would be happy to have her on his arm and she can be yours!
