    Theroux in Jo'Burg

    BRUTAL :eek:

    The stuff about stoning and then setting someone on fire or putting babies on ovens was well offside

    although Louis was well annoying for some reason

    It was proper fucked up like. I knew it was seriously bad over there, but that show highlighted a lot of stuff.

    To be honest the place should be nuked.

    Was another great episode like - really fucking offside city, couldent believe most of the stuff that went on, especially the complete lack of policing that goes on.

    another informative eye opener.

    however i still don't think he was the right man for the job again, i've sort of went right off his style of documentary producing. i found it annoying when arriving at a situation he would incinuate or actually state that that kind of thing isnt acceptable or is not done in england. this to me is slightly arrogant, however i'm guessing he knows that all along.

    he isnt in england - he's in a really fucking strange country which run's thing's there way - as opposed to the 'western' way.

    someone said today at work that it's basically BBC's answer to Kemp on gangs - which in my opinion is wrong, because this takes into consideration a wider scope of a problem, rather than single out a certain sect of society and follow them.

    Aside from that, sunday night tele has been class recently :)

    im watching this now, its fucking nuts like. dont like theroux tho, he seems a bit pathetic and asks really obvious questions, doesnt really find out any more than you could make out youself, and generally pansies about.

    Africa as a whole is fucked

    Its the only continent that never had a proper civilization THROUGHOUT history and their not going to start now.

    Its completely fucked up the next World Cup is out there... lambs to slaughter.

    Louis is a stupid toff, it makes great viewing when hes saying "is that stubble" to female body builders but i wasnt laughing when he was saying "Is he still breathing" to a beat up man lying in a puddle of blood

    did anyone else get the impression that sir jimmy is a raging puff?

    let alone the paedophilic nature of some of the shite he was coming out with.

    tbh they did have they're own civilisation until the english went over and started wars. and americans going over and pinching free labourers. so at the end of the day it's our countries meddling greed that did it injustice.

    *Awaits backlash*

    It was mental!! If them "security services" used that level of violence in front of the camera, god knows what happens when they aren't there.

    I wonder how many police are gona be around 4 the world cup, if them security services are involved it'll be a blood bath

    i felt proper sorry for that bloke who ran the local service that was voluntary - he seemed like a sound individual.

    Carthage was a pretty big civilisation in north africa, until the romans totally destroyed it. But until then it was an ancient super power and nearly destroyed the romans themselves.
