When Louis Met... Ann Widdecombe2002

Louis Theroux:
[Ann is showing Louis the garden of her constituency home] Can I prevail on you to let us see the bathroom or the bedroom?

Ann Widdecombe:
No.

Louis Theroux:
That - I mean, can I press that point?

Ann Widdecombe:
Uh, you can press it but the answer will be the same.

Louis Theroux:
Will it?

Ann Widdecombe:
Yeah. No, I don't, I don't open up private areas of the house to the cameras.

Louis Theroux:
OK, I'm pressing it.

Ann Widdecombe:
No.

Louis Theroux:
I'm continuing to press.

Ann Widdecombe:
You can press away but you won't get any different answer.

Louis Theroux:
I would really like to see your bedroom.

Ann Widdecombe:
No, I won't let anybody in my bedroom, certainly not a television camera. Come on, stop arguing, you're not going to get me to change my mind.

Louis Theroux:
The bathroom?

Ann Widdecombe:
No! [scoffs] What do you want to photograph the bathroom for, honestly? [they head round the side of Ann's house] Right, OK, now as we go past here, I know it's a bungalow, but you will keep your cameras away.

Louis Theroux:
From the bungalow?

Ann Widdecombe:
No. From any rooms which I've specified that you can't go in.

Louis Theroux:
Oh, OK. [they walk along the side of the house, Ann stands in front of a window and waves the camera crew past] I sense it's a point of principle with you, that there's nothing in particular that you're worried that we should see...

Ann Widdecombe:
No, nothing at all.

Louis Theroux:
I glanced to the left.

Ann Widdecombe:
That I don't mind because anybody walking past could do that.

Louis Theroux:
It looked quite normal.

Ann Widdecombe:
It's perfectly normal, I just don't want you filming in there, that's all.
