Gotta Get Theroux This: My Life and Strange Times in Television

Product Information

She was found abandoned and barely alive at an electricity substation the next day and died a week later. As Louis woos his beautiful wife Nancy and learns how to be a father, he also dares to take on the powerful Church of Scientology. Just as challenging is the revelation that one of his old subjects, Jimmy Savile, was a secret sexual predator, prompting him to question our understanding of how evil takes place. Filled with wry observation and self-deprecating humour, this is Louis at his most insightful and honest best. He was born in 1968 in Kampala, Uganda, where his American father was teaching at Makerere University. Net zero by 2025 can be achieved, claims this scathing two-part documentary; the only thing preventing the UK’s part in this is the government – but why? “They are completely and utterly gaslighting us,” says a furious Mary Portas, who has teamed up with Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall and Kevin McCloud to prove that greener is now cheaper, study how other countries are doing it, and put it all to ministers – which involves sending Rishi Sunak a book by Jilly Cooper.
