Not Louis's best

Let me start by saying I love Louis Theroux and most of his documentaries. This one, I felt he feel short. Mainly the subject matter is so tired, been done a million times. Yes, women sell themselves and get money. It's been called the oldest profession in the world. Secondly the people he finds to portray are crazy. They red haired lady is WELL past her prime.Time to settle down and stop thinking your 16 still. (my opinion of course) The other women from Knottingham is another, she looks almost 50 with kids. Also, prostitution in the UK seems way more tame than the US.

Sorry Louis, just not your best material. If you need suggestions for new documentaries, ask your fans.

Terrible documentary

This documentary was not objective at all. The questions were leading the interviewees to a predetermined direction and the commentary presented a biased view instead of providing some kind of fresh viewpoint to the subject. Would not recommend anyone to waste time on this, there are already too many similar documentaries.

A b-side.

The fact that some men here comment on the level of attractiveness of the subjects says more about them and why they were watching this than about documentary. Also, "Louis looks sad"? Really? That's just his style! It's called deadpan.

It's the best documentary about sex work

It was so moving I brought tears to my eyes. It also empowered sex workers by telling the stories of clients who wouldn't be able to enjoy sex if it wasn't for sex workers. Would highly recommend

A Victim Skewed Narrative and Surface Level Investigation

A diverse range of subjects (at a stretch) but very pessimistic narrative which did not do justice to the individual stories and motivations. This could have truly shown an important view on the individual needs and benefits of SW as an income and personal need but the constant reflection on previous experiences and childhood while in no doubt relevant created a not so subtle narrative around trauma from early age and young adulthood. Would have expected a better investigation and less biased narrative. Not his best work and disappointing given the A+ individuals that agreed to partake.
