    Every one of these Whicker's World documentaries that I've seen are phenomenally interesting slices of life, both mundane and on the fringe. Whicker really knew how to get people's interest!

    I love Alan Whicker’s documentaries. Majority of his documentaries I wasn’t even around but I love watching people from the past.

    Alan's face during the runway show is priceless! Like others posting here, Alan Whicker was brilliant because he asked intelligent, searching and open-ended questions and LISTENED, letting his interviewees talk with interrupting them every five seconds and allow them to reveal fascinating things...

    That country club scene tho. He started off strong by asking if they had any Jewish members. Then he totally drops the ball with the ‘of course, no coloreds’ part. 👀

      He was being clever. Feigning solidarity to out her and those like her for being unashamedly racist.
      That is why he brought up the subject in the first place.
      Beautifully done.

    the last scene has very strong Twilight Zone vibes.

    lmao the guy in the customer in the gun shop goes " my gramma told me its best to have it and not need it then to not have it when ya do need it" Then he says " as to how many times I've pulled it?" I thought he was gonna say zero but he goes "aww 25 or 30" lol! whats he doin walking around pulling his gun on every black or Mexican he sees?

    • @Garbeaux.
      @Garbeaux. Před rokem +1

      Guess his gramma didn’t teach him to only pull a gun on another person if you’re gonna use it. Guns aren’t supposed to be used as a shield. Too many gun owners walk around with their chests puffed out bc of that weapon. They go around with a nasty attitude or purposely provoking just hoping they can have a so called excuse to shoot. It’s cowardice at its finest. I’m all for the 2nd Amendment but not dangerous idiots who use it like that.
