This is the moment social media star Harrison Sullivan is scolded by his mother on Louis Theroux‘s new Manosphere documentary as she tells him that is ‘not how I brought you up’.
The broadcaster, 55, met with Harrison, 24, who is better known as HStikkytokky, as part of his deep dive into the growing amount of misogynistic content which is being shared online.
Tensions between the pair grew as Louis called out HStikkytokky for double standards over his views on the promotion of adult female performers.
However, Louis said what struck him most about Harrison was the interactions he had with his mother before the interview for the documentary took place.
In a clip from the Netflix show, the influencer’s mother suggests he should have a juice to which he curtly replies: ‘I don’t want a juice mum.’
His mother continues: ‘Don’t embarrass me, don’t be rude. That’s not the way I’ve brought you up. Do not be rude because it is a reflection on me.’
The pair then have a heated conversation about something Harrison appears to have spilled on the floor.
His mother takes the towel and says: ‘Look at this. I’m not having them coming here. Get out of the way.’

Later in the documentary, HStikkytokky is seen ranting online after videos of him and Louis went viral on social media during their time filming the Netflix special.
Thousands of viewers had headed to the comments joking that Louis was ‘setting up’ the social media star to ‘look like a clown’ by having him involved in the documentary.
HS was heard fuming: ‘If you want to call me a pimp, a scammer, racist, homophobic d**khead, I’m all of those, I’m all of those, Theroux.’
During their tense time together, the broadcaster pointed out that Harrison criticises female adult perfomers while simultaneously promoting seedy OnlyFans content on his channel. Harrison has previously called Bonne Blue ‘disgusting’.
Louis, however, was quick to point out the similarities between the duo.
He left Harrison angered as he claimed the content creator ‘sounded like Bonnie’ while describing how he feels about promoting extreme or controversial content.
Speaking about the interview, Harrison began: ‘I think she’s absolutely repulsive as a person,’ before admitting he only got her on the live stream for ‘clout’.
Louis then asked: ‘You’ve got 500,000 people on your Telegram, right? And you’re advertising OnlyFans girls on there. Do you think there’s a contradiction there?’
To which Harrison hit back: ‘No, because I openly say I don’t give a f**k and I’m doing it for money. I don’t care about…’
Louis interrupted: ‘The morality of it?’ to which HS added: ‘I know it’s not good. I say to people: “Don’t watch porn”. It’s sad, it’s loser s**t.’
But Louis corrected him: ‘You can’t say I promote it but discourage people from doing it… You say it but it doesn’t mean anything.
‘So you say, “Come down to the gym I’m going to help you work out” and then you just have a box of donuts – there’s a box of donuts that I’m holding up to your face… it’s giving very mixed messages.’
HS continued: ‘You do what you choose. If you want to go and eat the donuts, eat the donuts, but I own the donut shop.
‘If you wanna come in the gym and pay for the PT or eat the donuts, I make dough either way. My kids are going to be very happy, they can do what they want.’
It comes after Louis sent out a warning to parents of boys – following abusive run-ins while filming his Manosphere documentary for Netflix.
During the 90-minute film Inside the Manosphere, the host examined how prominent male content creators are helping form young men’s ideas about masculinity.
He met the likes of Harrison (aka HSTikkyTokky), Myron Gaines, Nicolas Kenn De Balinthazy (aka Sneako), Justin Waller and Ed Matthews.
The 55-year-old entered their world and learned how these individuals highlight their respective views on traditional gender roles and values.
Meanwhile, the Manosphere itself refers to an online network – including forums, websites and blogs – that promote anti-feminist beliefs, masculinity and misogyny.
At the beginning of the documentary, Louis remarks how he had noticed ‘parts of the Internet were being taken over’ by male influencers claiming to provide young men with ‘cheat codes to win at life’.
Louis told The Mirror: ‘These aren’t figures on the margins – anyone who’s got kids, and especially boys, will know that they are making inroads into the culture.
‘Their influence is being felt in schools, in the workplace and all across the internet.’
Throughout the documentary, the influencers film Louis for their own social media platforms while putting him through abuse and asking questions they receive from their followers while livestreaming.
In turn, this leads to Louis receiving abusive comments about his previous documentary with the late Jimmy Savile.
He also witnesses homophobic behaviour by HSTikkyTokky whilst Myron Gaines speaks in front of his girlfriend about wanting multiple wives in the future.
Regarding his own sons, Louis said that while a parent would ‘hope your influence would outweigh’ online content, he added: ‘They probably spend more hours looking at their phones than they do talking to us and we don’t always know what they’re looking at.’
Reports that Louis was set to ‘front a new Adolescence-inspired documentary for Netflix’ first surfaced in September 2025.
A source told The Sun at the time: ‘Louis is famous for starting out on the BBC with his Weird Weekends show and has stayed with them ever since.
‘Even though he started making shows for other channels and streamers, he never fronted them – that was reserved for the Beeb.
‘He did two celebrity interview series for them in 2022 and 2023, but ended that after just two series to focus on other projects.’
Netflix’s Adolescence, which was created by and starred Stephen Graham, centres on 13-year-old Jamie Miller (Owen Cooper), who is accused of murdering a schoolgirl with Stephen playing the boy’s father.
The scripted series reached 24.3million views in just the first four days of its release – and has been praised for highlighting the online radicalisation of young men and boys.
