Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends

Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends

Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends is a television documentary series, in which Louis Theroux gives viewers the chance to get brief glimpses into the worlds of individuals and groups that they would not normally come into contact with or experience up close. In most cases this means interviewing people with extreme beliefs of some kind, or just generally belonging to subcultures not known to exist by most or just frowned upon. It was first shown in the United Kingdom on BBC2. In 2001, Theroux was awarded the Richard Dimbleby Award as well as the Best Presenter BAFTA for his work on the series.

Louis Theroux:
Mrs Slocombe.

Jerry Gruidl:
Oh, I think she's hilarious, yes, I like Mrs Slocombe.

Louis Theroux:
What about Mr Humphries?

Jerry Gruidl:
Uh... Well, I try to ignore that part.

Louis Theroux:
Why?

Jerry Gruidl:
Uh... [he hesitates and scratches his chest] Uh... He's, uh, the one that's the fairy?

Louis Theroux:
Uh, the camp one. [imitating Mr Humphries] I'm free! I'm freee! [Gruidl giggles]

Jerry Gruidl:
No, I just ignore that.

Louis Theroux:
Why?

Jerry Gruidl:
Because he's a queer.

Louis Theroux:
But he's the funniest thing in it.

Jerry Gruidl:
Well, maybe to you. I think he's disgusting.

Louis Theroux:
But you said you liked the show and he's...

Jerry Gruidl:
Oh yeah, the show. They just, chuck that... They throw that in because they have to have the 'diversity'. They have to show that 'Oh, we love everybody.' See, up here, we're free to say 'Hey, I discrimate.'

Louis Theroux:
[doing his Mr Humphries imitation again] I'm free!

Jerry Gruidl:
[giggles] Yeah, I'm free to discriminate.

Louis Theroux:
I'm freee! [he laughs, Gruidl starts to look uncomfortable] Say 'I'm free'. Do you want to? Do you want to say 'I'm free'? I'm freee!

Jerry Gruidl:
I'm not free.

Louis Theroux:
Why not?

Jerry Gruidl:
Because our country is in bondage to the Jews.
