I just got the impression the programme was made simply to be taboo, rather create an interesting programme, which Louis Theroux documentaries usually are.

Fully agree.

I thought it wasn't too bad, some interesting questions raised regarding are there any solutions other than incarceration for these sorts. It seemed like not to me.
There was a documentary on More 4 last week called 'Deliver us from Evil' about a catholic priest in California that was convicted as a paedophile but protected by the Church to avoid scandal and now is wandering around as a free man in Ireland, now this was uneasy viewing !

There is an interview with him in the Radio Times. He said they were really careful when they edited the programme, especially to take out anything that people might of viewed as him being funny. A pity as I think they just ended up taking everything out that makes his approach so unique and interesting.

I thought it was interesting seeing the different stages the offenders were at. The majority seemed to still be in total denial - all of the ones he talked to that had refused the treatment programme came across as feeling they hadn't done anything wrong. Some seemed to be still coming to terms with what they had done whilst the remainder had fully accepted it and were doing everything they could to sort their problems out and get back to a normal life.

They made an interesting point that whilst most people agree / accept they need to be released when they are better, no one wants them living nearby which makes finding housing near impossible. Also worth remembering that all of them had actually served their full prison term and that rather than being released they had been put in there instead.

I haven't watched this yet but the reviewer in Metro basically slated it saying he thought Louis couldn't put aside his own predjudices and do proper reporting. He said the peados were basically treated worse than serial killers and instead of do the crime = do the time it was do the crime, do the time then keep doing time indefinitely.

Also he said it made no attempt to differentiate between someone who was there for having sex with a 15 year old and someone who had been molesting little kids.

I don't know about the word illness... people have a predisposition to it due to genetics and\or childhood - but at the end of the day there's always decision isn't there?!

Some of it is decision i reckon but obviously you get the very mentally ill who do not have a clue what they are doing imo.

Well if for example someone has the mental age of a child themselves and aren't very aware the implications they get treated differently by courts.

Also, do you think they take into account if someone was abused themselves when they do sentencing? They probably do.

Is being homosexual an illness or a decision?

At the end of the day even if you do fancy children, it is up to you whether you shag them or not.

Well they should'nt take it into consideration. I would imagine more people who were abused never offend its just an exuse break the cycle and all that.

Don't give me all that left wing crap and try and justify the actions of peados. Are you a social worker?

I hate it when people like you side with the pedos and not with the kids I suppose you want to rehabilitate the pedo scum and if little boys and girls get ass raped in the process you will just say "well pedos are people and they have human rights too".

Go on piss off back to your tofu sandwiches Bye
