Documentary fans are in for a treat as renowned documentarian Louis Theroux dived into the BBC Archives and selected his favourite documentaries. Each of them had an impact on Louis. They cover a range of styles - some vérité-driven, others told more through interview - but in all of them you see life at its most raw, its most strange and therefore its most human.
In Louis Theroux: Docs That Made Me Louis explains why he chose the documentaries and how they have inspired his work.
All the documentaries are available to watch on BBC iPlayer right now:
Philip and His Seven Wives (2006) Life and Death Row: Truth (2016) Exposed: Magicians, Psychics and Frauds (2014) Between Life and Death (2010) Inside Story: Mini (1975) Fourteen Days In May (1987) Rain in My Heart (2006)
