The documentary Sex: A Bonkers History takes viewers through the history of human sexuality. Hosted by TV host Amanda Holden and historian Dan Jones, the show explores shocking information about sex from ancient Egypt to modern society.
Sharing about this daring documentary, host Amanda Holden said: "Trust me, our generation now knows nothing more about sex than our ancestors did. During the process of making this documentary series, I was shocked and really had my eyes opened."

According to MC Amanda Holden, this is an interesting program that emphasizes the value of information and knowledge. The film's content reflects on 2,500 years of human sexual history. According to the female MC, this is a very good documentary for adults.
The film explores the bedroom life of ancient Greeks, ancient Egyptians, 3rd century Indians, Romans...
What Sex: A Bonkers History wants to show the audience is that we - modern people - who think we are very open, comfortable and knowledgeable about sex, can actually still be... "nothing" compared to the boldness and passion of people in ancient times.
Sex: A Bonkers History attempts to present information in a scientific and humorous way around a sensitive story. The documentary emphasizes that every dialogue counts, as a way to "rationalize" the making of the film.
Despite attracting a lot of attention from the British media and public before its release, Sex: A Bonkers History is causing mixed debate. Currently, the film's reviews from critics are quite disappointing. Review sites only give the film 1/5 to 3/5 stars.

The Guardian (UK) even rated this series 1/5 stars. Author Lucy Mangan said that her feeling after watching the first episode of this series was "relief when the last scene ended".
Accordingly, the female author assessed that this documentary was a shame for viewers from the first minute to the last minute, making viewers feel "creepy" throughout the entire process.
The film's less-than-positive reviews in British newspapers show that making a sexually charged film that reaches a mass audience is never easy.
Mangan said she would only watch the first episode for her review and would not watch the second. The documentary has a total of five episodes, each of which presents information that, according to Mangan, could cause the two hosts to "die of embarrassment" at any point during the course of their hosting.

The show's blend of scientific information and humor in its presentation and narration has left many critics scratching their heads. The documentary is neither as serious as it is scientific, nor as entertaining as it is entertaining.
Some news sites said that this documentary was too bold, explicit, and embarrassing for viewers. But there were also specialized sites that rated the film as too "mediocre", not meeting the expectations for a long documentary revolving around a "hot" topic. In general, producing content around a "hot" topic has never been an easy task.
