I think some people are forgetting the point of interviews. He's not there to be her friend. He'll ask challenging, and if need be insulting questions. It's Theroux's job to make interesting television and he does it well.
Wait, I've heard enough snotty superior comments from Brits about people in the US........ and this is what you've got in the UK? Really ? Seriously?
i bet louis regrets his approach on this doc....he is far too intelligent to be so clearly ignorant and schoolboy jokey...he has admitted this about his early docs.....love you louis glad your style has grown up niow
well she's a homophobic racist and thinks HIV is caused by condoms really now she is just a horrid person and deserves far more than to be called ginger tbqh.
Would it kill people and organizations who post clips like these to include the date of recording and/or first airing? I had to do some digging to find out that this one was probably shot in 2001, well before its 2008 posting date. The BBC is not the only committer-- I've spent all this evening watching clips originating from both sides of the Atlantic and am forced to guess the dates of shooting by the contents of the conversations.
To the people who think that Louis is being a dickhead, here in Britain, Anne Widdecombe is quite hated.
She had one show where she went around and spoke to prostitutes, she tried to get them to stop selling themselves just by asking nicely. She came off as very condescenging.
@shussey100 Botswana is a country where it's considered "moral" to imprison people for being homosexual. In Britain this isn't considered moral, it's considered backward.
ive gotta say louis came off as an inconsiderate dickhead in this one, however i always love his documentaries.. kinda depressing this one though, wouldn't like him talking to my mum like that.
He is one of those guys who feel they can make fun of older people because of their age, not realising that that's what lies in store for him too. And a haircut is hardly a makeover -- will somebody tell the moron.
@theflyingdr I agree, sarcasm and pure disrespect/taking a piss must have a fine bright line dividing them..and Louis may have mixed it up on this one..
Shes instantly criticised because she comes across as an upperclass twit.Its a shame, because if you actually listen to what she says shes a very intelligent woman and often speaks a lot of sence.If she had a workingclass accent and her Dad was a coal miner she would come over better the the "working class" whoever the hell they are nowadays.Its a shame that people dont actually listen to individuals instead of having a blind party loyalty.maybe the UK could move forward if we all did that.
She's an absolute NUTTER theres no two ways about it! It doesn't matter what your paltry party pissing politics is if you listen to this woman and actually agree with what she says you are nowt but a wrongun!
@balist0 go and watch the intelligence squared debate between the bishop and ann widecombe VS stephen fry and christopher hitchens.
religions gets its ass handed to it and the scores of people who change there mind about religion being good is inspiring, you may have seen, but im sure somebody hasn't.
its about time we spoke out about this shit, i feel sorry for her, but its obvious why shes so religious, nobody else would fuck her but jesus loves everybody
LMFAO!! Yes indeed jesus must be her only chance at love - though I think a pornfilm or two would probably be more satisfying!
That debate is absolutely brilliant, Fry and Hitchens are the nuclear warhead to that bishop and widdecombes flint spear. Really warmed my heart to see the difference in the poll at the end, simply brilliant!
A Bulldog chewing a wasp...lol, how did you get that sort of line?
This is why I love the UK. the people here have a way with words, I thought I could learn it but after 10yrs, I still havent, perhaps its time to go back to my jungle.
this woman is the exact cocktail we need,from what i have seen and read of ann widdecombe she is out spoken, she is totaly beyond reprouch,honest,true to her word,sincere,and she would put the countrys needs befor her own,SO SHE DOSE NOT HAVE A CAT IN HELLS CHANCE OF WINNING.
When this documentary was being made I worked at the House of Commons and managed to have a chat with Louis, whilst on a break from filming. A really nice guy.
Stegosaurus eh? Hey, you must be pretty old to remember those days, or else you made that up. Widdy's OK. She might be right wing in some ways but at least she was against hunting, which makes her one of the more decent Tories.
No part three? Thanks a bloody bunch, BBC.
