Peaches Geldof wants to be a "Louis Theroux"-style documentary maker.

The TV presenter has recently completed work on a show inspired by her "idol" Louis – who is known for his sarcastic tone and in-depth analysis into some of society's most unusual circumstances – and she admits it focuses on "weird" people.

She told BANG Showbiz: "I'm doing a documentary. It's like Louis Theroux, who is my idol.

“What's it about? I don't think it's weird people. It's about … actually, yeah, to be honest, yes, they're weird people. There's some names there that I shouldn't say."

Despite being happy to present, Peaches – who is the daughter of Bob Geldof and late TV personality Paula Yates – would not want to appear on a reality show such as Strictly Come Dancing.

She joked: "I would rather cut my leg off than do any of that s**t." - Bang Showbiz
