Louis Theroux on sitcom dreams, guilty pleasures, and a new outlook on life after lockdown

This week’s guest is Louis Theroux – the godfather of the immersive documentary. Over 24 years of programme making, Louis’ trademark style has remained the same – charming, bookish and, always, direct. In this episode, he talks to Kelly-Anne Taylor about how he wanted to be a sit-com writer, his guilty-secret of watching his own documentaries and why lockdown, and spending more time with his family, has changed his outlook on life.
