Bear Grylls

Louis Theroux goes off-grid to visit the adventurer and television presenter Bear Grylls, travelling with him to his private island off the coast of Wales.

Louis gets whisked away by adventurer and television presenter Bear Grylls to visit his private island, where he is staying for the summer with his wife Shara.

Louis sits down with Bear in an attempt to understand the real man beneath the tough-guy exterior. He learns about Bear being taken to see self-help gurus as a child and his experience of boarding school.

Louis accompanies Bear on trips to a Scout troop in south London and a marine reserve training camp. They also head to Devon, where Bear is guest of honour at his own family adventure festival.
