Who thinks Jeremy Kyle should be taken off air because one guy failed a lie detector test because he's a cheat and lost his fiancé because of it. Shouldn't have cheated then. IT not Jeremy's fault that this guy decided to be really selfish a

[Nay37]

And commit suicide

[Old_Geezer]

It's Jeremy's fault he presents such an appalling show though. That's all that needs knowing.

[ludwig]

It's garbage. If the program finishes for whatever reason, good riddance to it.

[Nay37]

He has helped loads of people in crisis, i.e got drug addicts clean and alcoholics dry

[Nay37]

They should take love island off the air because that it's absolute rubbish.

"They should take love island off the air because that it's absolute rubbish."


Well now we have a talking point.. TWO love islanders have killed themselves since this show aired. Both of them were contestant saying they couldn't handle the fame after the show. Yet Love Island is still on? and Jeremy Kyle has been on a LOT longer than love island..

That's a fantastic point Nay.

As I said earlier, the guy was adamant the test was wrong and he had not cheated.

[Nay37]

Lie detector tests are about 97% accurate so he did cheat

[jackthehat]

What if he fell into the 'missing' 3%?

[Ken4155]

Lie detector tests (or polygraphs) are not always 100% correct and their effectiveness depends a great deal upon the skill of the questioner. He asked to go on the show to prove he hadn't been unfaithful because his fiance wasn't convinced of this, apparently. According to one of his friends, he was adamant the test would show him to be faithful to his partner. As i wrote on the thread i began, where is the evidence that the show's after-care has been a sustained success. I've never seen any facts printed. The whole show is car-crash tv.

[spathiphyllum]

Regarding the love island point, it's a brilliant comparison.

Love island creates an unrealistic ideology of youth culture. It also promotes body modification such as lip fillers, breast enlargement and plastic surgery. They got in trouble for targeting these adverts at a love island audience because of how damaging it is. Two love islanders have committed suicide after the show due to pressure of the show and the show aint even been on all that long!

[Ken4155]

Many say that polygraphs are 90% - 92% correct. Others believe them to be less than 80% correct. And, as i said earlier, their effectiveness relies a great deal on the competence of the person carrying out the test.

[spathiphyllum]

A sociopath would pass a polygraph with flying colours.

[Ken4155]

And how anyone can compare the JK show to Love Island is beyond me. Those on the JK show are made to face up to whether or not the baby they have brought up is actually theirs, or who stole granny's cash, etc, etc, etc. When they return to normality, they face ridicule and scorn. Love Island is just a bunch of preening male and female wannabees who already believe the sun shines out of their own rissoles. The guy who recently committed suicide after the programme did so (according to all the reports i have read) because he couldn't handle the fame. No comparison whatsoever, imho.

[spathiphyllum]

Ken the comparison is after people have been on it, they committed suicide. Also, they are both featured on ITV. Comparison worthy IMO.

[Bazile]

I don't watch this show , although i'm aware of the format

So , what's this all about - what;s happened ?

[spathiphyllum]

Two TV shows, both on ITV, both have had people kill themselves after appearing on the show. Only difference is, it happened twice with love island. Once with JK but it's been pulled and investigated.

[Ken4155]

Spath; so you're comparing a guy who just couldn't handle the fame a programme brought him with another guy who stood to lose the love of his life?
