16 times we loved Louis Theroux on Twitter
Louis Theroux’s come a long way since his Weird Weekends started – gulp – nearly 20 years ago.
Now it seems the nation loves him more than ever. Here’s a tiny taster why.

When he was so impressed by a Louis Theroux ‘Twitter bot’ he did this.

When he reminded people to vote in the election (and subtly ignored all the BBC’s rules about impartiality).
Remember to vote tomorrow and bear in mind British values of tolerance, fair play, and caring for society's least advantaged.
