[Major content warnings. The host goes into some very dark aspects of the show's production. The first half is a lot of fun, though.]

cw: child abuse in YCDTOTV documentary; also spoilers 

The whole thread about the child exploitation aspect of the whole production really unnerved me... because years ago I watched a Tomorrow People DVD by the same producer, Roger Price... and Rik, Peg, and I were making jokes all the way through about how much he liked putting young boys in their skivvies. We honestly thought we were just being snarky about an old Brit's naivete. It's not nearly as funny after watching this documentary. -__-
