You've got to admire Louis Theroux's pluck and the fact that he never lets his Bertie Wooster-ish baffled charm slip. "Hello Brett, I'm Louis. I'm from the BBC. British Broadcasting..." Theroux is holding out his hand to a blank-eyed crystal meth abuser who's been arrested in a drugs raid. The addict is too zoned out to know what's going on, but his clearly distressed granny has no problems in chatting to the man from the BBC. Theroux is in Fresno, California, where the cheap, easy-to-produce crystal methamphetamine is laying waste to countless lives. It's the world's most abused hard drug, he says, and its users for the most part live pointless, empty lives. Theroux, bless him, strides into every situation that presents itself - he attends a drab backyard barbecue with a bunch of users and joins a rehab session. What emerges is a terrible picture of loss and despair. Says one police officer, "[Crystal meth] is like a plague on this generation."
