Louis Theroux shares little known consequence of his controversial Jimmy Savile interview and reveals his one big filming regret

He is famed for his unassuming interviews on BBC with a host of celebrities.

Louis recalled moments where celebrity agents would refuse the invite because 'it wasn't a nice thing to be asked' so soon after interviewing a paedophile. He added: 'There's a whole scene I wish we'd shot with the Joe Exotic film, where they were going to campaign for his release, and they were going to go to Washington and we were offered a flight on his lawyer's plane, and then we just let it slide. 'I don't absolutely line up with that, but there is a sense in which there are small failings and little bits that you wish you could do differently or do over, and as it goes on, you're pleased with how it turns out, but more often than not, there are little things that you feel actually you could slightly better, especially with the with the hindsight and the passage of time.'
