This is out of order

Never watched a full episode ever.The worst of British TV.

About time! Next? All antanddec vehicles which work off the same model, ie. vulnerable/needy/attention seeking people having their needs fulfilled under the guise of entertainment

And yet you say nothing about the thousands of deaths caused by Tory sanctions and policies.

GOOD! Bullies on tv means bullies in the playgrounds. Get em out of our sights!

The awkward moment when Jeremy Kyle gets told to go get a job 😂😂

Good this is a show of the gutter an affront to basic human dignity.

I wonder if the poor gentleman passed the lie detector test but the producers chose to say he hadn't for effect!

Good. Utter trash. Watched a little when it first started then changed channels!

Time to ace many other reality shows on TV Bring back Regular screening of movies New and old dramas New and old games shows Family TV which is non existent Enough exploitation of vulnerable people who will agree to participate on national TV for monetary gains

I’m A Celebrity Get Me Outta Here frantically trying to persuade Jeremy into the jungle...

Jeremy Kyle should be charged. He is nothing but a bully.

ITV Trump to take over from Kyle in reconstituted Show: 'SPIN THE CYLINDER' As per usual, senses reeling! Zero criticism. POTUS will make grand job of it & a great host! God Bless.

Excellent more episodes of Quincy to watch.

Awful show should of been axed before this incident

I assume love island will follow suit shortly then.

Unfortunately it takes a death for them to act as the pile of shit programme and host should never have made it onto telly to start with

Kyle should be banned from future presenting jobs. We don’t need his cheap senseless jibes at expense of others. Time for respect!

Good riddance to a disgraceful programme. The lowest common denominator encouraging uneducated chavs to parade their pathetic personal lives in front of the public. Worst possible taste.

THEY choose to go on what about the thousands he’s helped? Knee jerk reaction

Let's please do the same to the rest of the reality shows. How anyone can think of them as entertainment is beyond me

And love island is still allowed to be shown on tv. 2 people take there own life after been on that horrendous show.Maybe itv are now like bbc trying to cover things up.Ban all of these shows as they are pointless and un interesting

Good. Glorified bullying this show.

Great News ......absolute gutter press journo on tv

Good news but no doubt it will be picked up by another channel, probably channel 5, in 6-12 months.

Quite right to

It took something as bad as this for this awful programme to be removed..The man bullied and took the piss out of some of the lesser educated members of society and the audience lapped it up like puppy dogs...curious_twitt

Why are people acting like he did it on the show ...What if after all this it is found that he had a heart attack etc

Love island 3 deaths still being aired?

Anybody needing a Jeremy Kyle fix, Wetherspoons is open all day.

Cancel love island after the suicides of former contestants what’s the difference

It was only a question of when not if something like this would happen following one of his shows, at the same time people are campaigning about dealing with mental health issues we had this program playing upon people’s vulnerability, ITV’s statement on it is embarrassing

ProtectRPolice Good riddance

Good. How long do we have to wait for Love Island to get out?

Won’t be much left to ban soon

Gonna get rid of love island as well

If they had cancelled Love Island then ok....

To be honest after 14 years I'm surprised this hasn't happened numerous times already as the show is famed for its conflict and aggression.

why did it need this tragedy to get this program cancelled should of happened a long time ago

What about love island where 2 people have joshed it? Can we get rid of all the reality shite please.

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Love island?

I hope Jeremy Kyle isn't gonna get the blame for this! People know what they're letting themselves in for when they go on the show, and the guests suicide was his own decision, and not the fault of anyone else!

What about Love Island? Doesn’t that dross have form also?

Oh well , what a shame

About time!!

He brought a lot of families together, he got a lot off drugs and they turned their lives around. No one made a single participant to be on the show - it was their choice and knew that things can come out they may not want to hear which could affect them. Not his fault imo

It was bullying of the highest order. I never watched a programme (caught glimpses when at a friends house) and I’m so pleased that ITV have finally woken up to 2019, though my sympathies are with the family of Steve Dymond. Interestingly it is Mental Health Awareness week

They'll soon come up with sth new

What about Love Island?

This is in the midst of tragic circumstances & we don't have knowledge of what happened in the show or why the contestant died by suicide however i do feel that shows like this are still relevent. Maybe a new show focusing on counselling and help rather than lie detector.

JeremyKyleShow has been Axed. With a Axe. So it has been chopped by a Axe.

Bollocks

Let's hope all the reality TV shows that put contestants through similar things think twice now and end this madness .

Overdue, long overdue!

Good riddance too..

Biggest pile of 💩 on the TV. Goodbye and good riddance.

This is a bad idea. ITV should not cancel it. I’m no fan but all that will happen now is Jeremy kyle will take his show to a low budget channel. Think Jerry springer in the 90s. He used to actually goad guests in to fighting and he would ring the bell on stage when they did.

This is so out of order blaming jemery Kyle for something that he hasnt done

Take it MPs are sick of cocking up brexit they've moved on to tv, how many ppl have commited suicide due to having benefits / pensions stopped by DWP, they don't give a toss about their deaths.

It looks like he won't afford to get his teeth whitened in the future 🎬💩😁

I think it's wrong that they have axed the show same happened on love Island that wasn't axed.

So it's was a lie detector to proove his innocence, after his wife accused him of cheating. He was found out... So he killed himself. A few underlying medical issues.!! But %80 Of the guests do have medical issues. I'm not defending Kyle, but the show attracted the loony tunes.

What are the unemployed going to do all day now ?

Thank goodness for that, I have never understood how it could possibly be aired.

Wha....?

Good decision

Good, so love island will be next then

About time this pile of crap was taken off the air. Kyle has been getting rich off the backs of vulnerable people for far too long, just for 'entertainment'.

Oh no! What are all the benefit claimants going to get out of bed for now? 🤔🤔🤔

Thank god! Finally.

Ah well 👍

Shouldnt be axed cause 1 person not right x

The genius Graham seems to be avoiding ant criticism. he was the mental health expert that helped put these mental health sufferers through the trauma of the show. jeremey`s goffer

THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD NOW SHUT DOWN WITH ALL THE DEATHS THEY HAVE DONE!!

In my other life, I was once obsessed with this show 😟

liamlcfc88 Surely Love Island has to be next. They offer literally no support for the contestants who leave the show. 2 suicides in a year...

Long overdue, disgusting TV

What am I supposed to now get a job or something 🤔... Wait a minute I already have one so didn't watch that crap anyway.

But LoveIsland goes from strength to strength

Good, it was shite!

Good

It’s a pity it has taken a bereavement to axe this shit...

I never watched the show but feel for Jeremy who seems a professional

About time.! This programme humiliated families and individuals ‘ In Crisis ‘and the emotionally vulnerable in the name of so called entertainment. Trash programme now where it belongs...In the trash bin.

Part of me feels like the suicide shouldn't cause the show to be cancelled. Another part of me thinks that the show was utter bollocks anyway, so it won't be a loss. Shame people have to lose their jobs over it though.

Can see riots on the streets over this

Common sense at last!

Gerry springer started it! Ringing a bell for them to start fighting!!

Nothing else they could do.

Good decision.

What a pathetic decision!! Everyday in this country we are losing the ability of “free speech” so he killed himself who else do want to blame.. the girlfriend too?! How about he had a problem from within and it’s only one fools fault and he won’t do it again!!

ITV .... double standards... bellends

As trashy as THE JK Show is, it has helped a lot of people get off drugs etc and rebuild their lives. ITV has looked for a scapegoat and unfortunately this is it!! Clearly diverting blame. Without ITV, this show would never have begun in the first place!! JKnottoblame badITV

People just wanting 5 minutes of fame.

Jeremy Kyle show....over 3000 episodes 1 related death Love Island show......under 100 episodes 2 related deaths I wonder which show makes the most money

It seems to me many of the people on the show had already been let down by society, no help, no where to go, last resort, now suddenly Jeremy Kyle is the bad person in all this! Very unfair.

Good

Thank god. Car crash television

About time it’s a horrendous show that should of been cancelled years ago.

Next to go emmerdale itvcorrie bbceastenders

The J Kyle show was excellent with the care given to people, I was heartened to hear the news caster mention people having a voice, many folk were helped when all else had failed! So often the “professionals “ were not helpful! The show was a last resort! It’s easy to slam it!

Bring back Trisha

Good the parasite making money off people's misfortune, he has the death of that poor man on his hands, keep him off tv forever.

What about manslaughter charges?

Lets get rid of twitter, facebook and instagram now. They will have caused more deaths.

Thank f*ck for that.

How Twitter works, if it wasnt cancelled, people super offended by it demanding to know why, when it is cancelled, people tweeting saying how ridiculous a decision it Is 😂😂

Looking forward to Love Island being gone too then , thank you

I’ve been waiting for this day since Trisha got cancelled.

he will live on in re runs and the american version as well

Despite the recent events, about time. Absolute shite.

Won’t be missed 👏

Love Island makes to much money to be axed

So the guy committed suicide after being found out of being a lieing scumbag... they dont mention he was sacked from his job for destroying work property or that he was a common criminal. Where was the uproar from the media and mp's when people from love island committed suicide?

Good

Every cloud has a silver lining.

To be fair it ruined the blokes life for cheap thrills on tv povertyporn

Love Island needs to be axed too after 2 suicides

Judge Rinder, Towie, Made In Chelsea, Real/Fake Housewives

So the Hunter has now become the hunted. Absolutely detest this horrid human being

Killed himself because he was a cheating scumbag and couldn't handle the embarrassment/losing her? Can't see how that's Kyles fault. At all.

If they have axed the the show theres more to it than people think. R.I.P to the gent that died.

Prob for the best ,,they need to axe all reality TV shows

I've only ever witnessed this programme, while on mute at the gym, on a bank of TV screens. It seemed to consist of enormous women, running on stage to confront tiny men, while waving and pointing fingers. A sad loss to my fitness regime.

Chin up laulsfielder1

Best news ive heard in awhile

Now wtf am I going to watch at 9.25

And love island surely has to follow! 🤷‍♂️

Can we axe you DirtyDirtySmearMerchants too now? RIP Brenda Leyland FakeNews SlyNews

Fantastic news. Shame Jezza's dad didn't put something on the end of it 🤣

and Love Island? Remember 2 linked suicides with that one

Where are the thousands of people who the show helped? Come on, show yourselves, JK used as a scapegoat for all that is wrong with society today. One death, thousands helped? Where is the justice ⚖ here? If axed this, axe EVERY reality show.

That’s s Lil heavy handed! Will boxing in this country be banned just because people have died or got injured in it?🤔🤔. To Jeremy, many doors may open for in the America’s with even bigger stakes.

Interestingly, in The Star, the guy was described by his step-daughter as ‘a “selfish, serial liar” who had previously made several suicide attempts’. My question would be, was the lie detector accurate? If so, he gambled & lost! If not, there are more questions to answer!

Thank fuck 4 that, man was a prick anyway.

When do you cancel Love Island, ITV ?

Please call these people if you need any advice on what to do now.

Sky News should’ve been scrapped after the doorstepping and death of Brenda Leyland

talkin to my dad about this he said about time been waiting for some one twice size of steve to lamp kyle lol, to me this kid is just offensive to a lot of people a lot of bad people are now good people by replacing hard drugs w/ canna n he calls them druggies still for it

Thank the Lord.

Can't stand the show but other itv shows need axing as well, take a good luck into these reality shows plz

Thank Jasus for that. Quite possibly the greatest load of shite TV ever. MoranPaul52 theJeremyVine angiebeeb ITV

Oh no what will the lay-about scroungers of society do now

What will the scroats watch now whilst drinking 2 litres of frosty jack.

Good

People commit suicide over the GOVERNMENT'S universal credit but that will keep being rolled out

Oh no what are the millions of dole dossers going to do now

I expect love island to follow suit get another load of tripe of the telly and making nobody’s famous 👋

So so wrong! BAN BLOODY Love ILSAND! They’ve add TWO DEATHZ! I SHOUT JEREMY KYLE ALL D BLEEDIN WAY!!! JK! JK! JK IZ WOT I SAY!!! 😡😡😡🖕🖕🖕There not at my JEREMY.

I hope this little weasel ends up on someone else’s talk show in 15 years time with the title ‘my show got axed 15 years ago, I’m bankrupted, an alcoholic and I now need to sell my pasty body to feed my frosted jack cider habit’... good riddance. Dreadful program.

What will the benefit cheats watch now ?

Will await the inevitable C4 or C5 takeover.

TV channels has their rating up by creating hardcore persona like Jeremy Kyle with is screaming, Graham Norton with silly irony comments on countries taking part at Eurovision etc creating fragile environments to some contestants and viewers.

Wat wil the chavs watch now 🤔 poor buggers 😢

Wonder whether ITV will ever show that episode of JK shouting in the face of that chap with a massive bodyguard behind him, calling him a liar and a cheat with the audience laughing, clapping and gasping in the background? No.... I didn’t think so jeremykyle

It will probably be replaced by a very similar show but with a different host and name.

Snowflakes!

Love island next, people who were on that shower of shite have killed themselves also, so whats the difference ? getrid showerofshite

I am NOT a fan of this Show, nor defending it but in the interest of fairness, I think this poor man has had many issues-a long history of outstanding fines for past offences, was unemployed & subject of an arrest warrant. The show was not sole cause but made bad situation worse.

What a joke ITV. Cancel love island then aswell. How many years has Jeremy Kyle been on TV and first instance this has happened. ITV double standards.

loveisland next?

Hoorah, shame it’s taken the death of a guest though.

I've never got to the point in an argument were I've said 'Let's go on the Jeremy Kyle show'. I now feel that goal in my life has been removed 😀

Good riddance

LoveIsland be cancelled too? There have been two tragic deaths from that show too.

Thanks god for that. Once less piece of crap on our TVs.

Should have been axed a long time ago. Was a pile of shite

I am not a big fan of the show, in fact not a fan of Jeremy Kyle show, but if his showed is cancelled, then shows like love island should be cancelled too, and all reality shows, afterall 2 individuals killed themselves after been on love island.

A big blow to unemployment telly.

Good that show was a waste of TV time

What will a million people watch with their cans of special brew now? jeremykyle

Long overdue.

About time

Once again the PC brigade win!! Itv LoveIsland should be next then!!

Love island as well then? And the X factor and Britten’s got talent since the presenter of they 2 became a drug taking alcoholic who drink drives?

So itv itv2 are you gonna axe LoveIsland after the deaths of TWO of its contestants! Hmmm let me think no! So hypocritical! Unlike loveisland the jeremykyleshow actually has done amazing things!

Off to Netflix then. More money for jezza. Massive funding hole for itv cos the replacement shite is also one of the worst TV programming ideas ever to have made it into TV.

The correct decision, though it shouldn’t have taken the death of a guest to end the Jeremy Kyle Show.

This is a joke tbh. Jeremy Kyle has been on TV since 2005 and theres been 1 death, a death that is yes so sad but love island has been since 2016 and there has been 2 deaths after the show. Its a joke of a decision, proving ITV are all about the money.

Get rid of love island now

I felt a great disturbance in the force, as though millions of toothless unemployed people cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced..

The government should be sacked next considering the amount of people who have committed suicide after being sanction or having disability benefits stopped

Thank heaven for that. It was a bear pit. A suicide was always pending. So sorry that a man has lost his life because of this 😞 It is very very sad

Thank fuck ! People can finally go the dentist

Disgraceful he has helped hundreds of people

Ludicrous

Brilliant news worst programme ever made to keep the unemployed people who live near the coast entertained

Jeremy Kyle Show's guests are now coming forward to whine about it... did you get forced to go on it? did you get forced to take a lie detector test which you failed? How about, be honest with your partner that you're cheaters. jeremykyle jeremykyleshow

Oh no what the great unwashed and doleys going to do now

More deaths were caused by the bedroom tax...axe the Government 🤣

👏👏👏👏👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Unemployment rates will drop now! People will actually go to work

Shocking decision. Nothing is safe anymore

How tragic that someone had to die for this trash to be removed from tv screens! Shows like this should never be allowed to happen again!

Some saying poor Jezza, nah nah he'll get other work, unless he wants a proper job in the real world 🙂

It's the end of the road for JeremyKyleShow

Goodbye Jezza 👋🏼

Best news this year so far

JeremyKyleShow 2005-2019

It's a shame it took the death of a human being for this scummy show to get axed.

Great Virtue Signalling 👍🏻

Should think so

Ah what the doll dossers going to watch now then? 🤔

Love island next then

Anglo Jerry Springer trailer trash
