    Did anyone watch this the other night?

    It was genuinely brilliant TV. I am a massive Theroux fan. He always seems to be able to get the relevant parties to open up and dig their own holes probably as a result of his aparent 'geekiness'.

    One prisoner was serving a 521 year sentence for 'Several Home Invasions' and he also noted sexual assault with a pistol as one of his crimes. The guy spoke about his crimes like we would speak about football tactics.

    Keep an eye out for it, if you havent seen it.

    Excellent show, espically the gang culture within the prison. Once you leave a gang, you are on the hitlist till you die :eek::eek:

    I like Theroux's shows but he really annoys me the way he pretends to be an innocent/naive little schoolboy. I used to think it was funny but when I see shows like the San Quentin or the neo-nazi one Im amazed these people talk to him. They probably hear "BBC" and think he's a typical english gent.
    Funniest part of the Quentin show was when the ex-Nazi Lowrider was giggling with his new found love (a feminine bloke) and then said he was married with kids and would probably be in alot of trouble if his wife sees the show. :D:D Hes banged up in prison with a hit on his head and hes worried bout his wife finding out hes a c*ckknocker.
