BAFTA-WINNING film-maker Max Carlish's documentary following the former Libertines frontman is a project that ended up with Pete in Pentonville for a long weekend.
Max Carlish recorded the singer's day-to-day life, including footage of his heroin use.
But when Doherty's representatives denied the director further access to his subject, he responded by selling the material he'd shot to the tabloids.
Pete's reaction ended up with police involvement. Happily, all charges relating to the incident in a North London hotel have been dropped, and Pete's band Babyshambles are planning an album release in the coming months.
The documentary features contributions from friends and former band members. (Channel 4, 10pm)

I could see why Max took an interest in Pete because he is quite an intreguing character, however i personally think Max took it too far and Pete had every right to retaliate the way he did, fair enough he shouldn't of been so blatent with his drug use, but there was no reason why Max should of sold this info to the press just because he wasnt getting what he wanted.
I think the comments he made about Pete and Kate and sexual involvement was disturbing.
He needs help.
This documentry was an eye opener, it makes you realise just how far people will go to get satisfaction, it also shows you what goes through the mind of a stalker.

A channel of your size and influence missed the opportunity to make a documentary, which would give an insight into how a individual can be demonised by manipulative media. The cheapness of this all reportage demonstrated your channel continuous duming down and pandering to Essex white van man viewers. You Must Be Proud???
