Louis Theroux's Wierd Weekends

Louis Theroux has made a vast amount of documentarys under the name of Louis Theroux Weird Weekends which aired on BBC2. These documentarys were different each week with a camera following Louis and the different types of people that he exposed to the camera. the most recent one which we viewd in class recently was Louis Theroux Weird Weekends at a Brothel. this documenatry was an expository docmentary reveling the lives of females living in a brothel created by a previous prostitutue and shows the audience the type of atmosphere displayed in a brothel.
During the documentary there are many informal interviews with some of the clients who have visited the brothel. They explain to Louis why they visit this place as well as how normal it feels to their nature. Whilst watching the Documentary you couold see that some of the females living there could feel uncomfortable during some of there experiances as they are chosen specifically by the clients and can be treated in ways in whihc they would never experiance out of the brothel.
The documentary is a very realistic documnetary showing the real lives of female escourts in a legal brothel as reveals thier real thoughts and views on how living in a brothel has changed their lives either way.
