Through his awkward yet persuasive interviewing style, Louis Theroux has become a staple of the BBC's factual broadcasting thanks to his hard hitting documentaries. His Louis Theroux Interviews shows are a little more light-hearted, though.

Season 2 starts with former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua to discuss AJ's "meteoric rise in the world of boxing to more recent humbling defeats". Former The Libertines frontman Pete Doherty follows; a musician who has had countless struggles with drug addiction and general rock superstardom since his massive popularity in the early 2000s.

Then it's the turn of Dame Joan Collins, who — aged 90 — has had an extensive 70-year career as both actress and author, and yet is probably still best known for her five marriages. Pop sensation Raye, actor/rapper Ashley Walters and U.S. activist and whistleblower Chelsea Manning are all to follow.

Ready to watch Louis and friends? Here's everything you need to watch Louis Theroux Interviews season 2 online — and stream it all no matter where in the world you are.

But what if you're usually based in the U.K. but are visiting the U.S. right now? Perhaps, you're on holiday and don't want to spend money on a paid streaming service in a foreign country when you'd usually be able to watch for free at home.

Don't worry — you can watch it via a VPN instead. We'll show you how to do that below. Our favorite VPN service right now is ExpressVPN, but you'll find others in our best VPN services list.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in the U.S. and want to view BBC iPlayer, you'd select U.K. from the list.

Initially, the second season of Louis Theroux Interviews isn't available to watch in North America.

Season 1 did eventually turn up on the BBC Select streaming service, which is the international home of the BBC's biggest and best documentaries. BBC Select is available on Amazon Prime Video Channels, the Apple TV app and The Roku Channel for $4.99/month, after you've enjoyed a 7-day free trial. 

Judging from the first season, it's likely that the six new episodes will appear on BBC Select sometime in 2024.

Until then, if you're outside of the U.S., you can watch Louis Theroux Interviews season 2 online on the BBC iPlayer by using a VPN such as ExpressVPN.
