Newspaper reports name the man who died as grandfather Steve Dymond, as ITV faces calls to make a 'strong statement'.

"I believe that Ofcom should conduct an independent review of the duty of care policies in place around the Jeremy Kyle show and other similar programmes."Mr Walker also called on ITV to make a"very strong statement" to take the programme off air permanently.

"It's 2019, we're in Mental Health Awareness Week and I think it would be a very strong statement from ITV that actually this is it, we're not going to be producing this type of show anymore and The Jeremy Kyle Show has run its course.

Don't need thick MPs to tell people what to watch,can't sort out BREXIT

I watch one series of I am a celeb get out of here and another where people were left of deserted Island to fend for themselves and could not believe the things that the contestants were made to do.

Jeremy Kyle been in tv about 10 years and mp said scrap it why don't they can all talk shows all together.

Yes it should and you lot with it

Why now? Couldn't give two hoots before

Should Kyle himself be brought to book for his terrible treatment of vulnerable people who come on this show, shouting calling them liers etc, does any money change hands to appear

Exactly!! It's about time in this day it was banned forever!! I mean u got game of thrones season 8 about to finish forever....n this clat trap shit 💩for Dole goers goes on forever!! 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡Itv wake up and bann this shit 💩!! 😵

Full of scruffy mingers It's a discrace to the uk

People only watch these type of programmes to make themselves feel better about their own lives. I hate public humiliation making the producers and all involved very rich in the process

1st Warning for JeremyKyleShow. The Major One.

Stop being so knee jerk. I love watching toothless tattooed morond shouting at each other.

MPs should be scrapped warned the electorate (in June 2016, then May 2019). Yet, still they don't listen. wankers VoteIndy Time4Change

They should have one more with reMAYn and the country with the country complaining of being abused.

It should not be axed at all its not the shows fault by that logic pull love island etc it sounds like ITV have pushed panic button to quickly

Crass ...disgusting.... exploitation of people with problems ! all done by and for Kyle's ratings ! Absolute bullshit....Kyle shuda been scrapped a decade ago or after namely incorrectly John Leslie live on air ......btw knowing exactly what he was doing ...

I’m sure people choose to appear on it. For some bizarre reasons

Guest chooses to go on show. Guest gets paid, guest is an idiot & everyone sees it. Guest kills themself ... 'it's Jeremy Kyle's fault!' 🤦‍♂️ Anyone would think Jeremy Kyle was in the police getting blamed like that! So is Love Island cancelled too then? jezza jeremykyle

Scruffy people arguing on tv. Great watch

A show that shows how council estate Britain is really like. Bad teeth, bad English and bad manners.

MP's do what your sposed to do and deal with Brexit But I do agree for once

Characteristics of JeremyKyle :- Moron Coward Liar Cheat Cheap Come on ladies....... Here's a clown you can show off to your family 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

ScrapTheShow.

What other show offers this level of help? I don't see how itv can blaim the show for the sad passing of this contestant. Even the partner of the contestant praised the show for their aftercare so what is this really about? Does itv have alteria motives for suspending the show?

Heres a point I want to make, why do thousands of retards watch this loser? He's a serial cheat, but councels people about relationships, he's an ex gambling addict who stole money from his first wife. He thinks he's a big man targeting vulnerable people while having bodygaurds

People volunteer to get on the show. The show has comprehensive aftercare designed to help with wide ranging issues offering counselling and rehab. I don't see how that is cruel. It is quicker to get help through the show than sitting on waiting lists for contestants needing help

Serves any idiot right for whatever happens, they are classed as adults they have that choice, to or not to, so no sympathies there. Grow up make sensible choices else suffer the consequences

Should be scrapped because it’s shit !!

Yes the show Prays on the Vulnerable.

Aggressive bully boy - because security there to protect him - when he goes too far and provokes a reaction.

Given that he has probably made a fortune from victimisation and manipulation of his guests maybe he should be contributing generously to a few mental health charities

Probably the time is right to bin it

Couldn’t agree more! His odd “good deed” doesn’t make up for the fact that he exploits vulnerable people.

Yeah it’s not great tv and I wouldn’t volunteer to go on the show, but the show isn’t exploiting the people, it’s their choice. they contact the show and want to appear on it.

Trisha back !

Jeremy Kyle is a prick. Fact! But anyone who goes on the show applies for it and knows that a. Jeremy is a prick b. They’re going to take a lie detector Don’t go on the show if you have something to hide. Or even better, don’t be a scumbag with something to hide

Kyle berates people regardless shouting and verbally reducing them to trash that clearly are not able to have normal behaviour lifestyles is vile in itself. Kyle is not the “after show” he’s the bully creating the viewing figures.

What about love island Two suicides already in 4 years

I only saw it once,never again.Why is humiliating people deemed to be good TV.This show should be scrapped for good.

The girlfriend says the aftercare was brilliant and they’d tried contacting the man , he went voluntarily and failed a lie detector , he wasn’t forced to appear 🧐

Terrible program that targets and exploits a specifically selected section of society.

Why make a program like this when they could have made a planet earth program or amazing documentary

Always thought this show exploited people.

Along with loose women love island X factor

Possibly it should be scrapped - maybe it shouldn’t. I don’t know. But why is some random MP chipping in. Nothing to do with you

And all the other reality tv shows...!?!

And that’s coming from a Tory

Yes, it probably should be canned. But let’s not for one minute assume that Charles Walker cares about the vulnerable. Unless, of course, he’s had an epiphany that isn’t represented by his voting history?

Or just relaunch it with only middle class participants, to show that plenty of the pampered middle classes live chaotic lives too.

It’s one of the worst shows on TV ever!!

Jeremy Kyles a good man he helps people specially fathers

Oh it will . you can't go around destroy people's life's for entertainment purposes

Wouldn't volunteer to go on but wouldn't accept the way he speaks to some of his contestants who are obviously on due to their issues but it's not like they can speak back to him the way he mocks them at times.

Totally agree. Such kind of a program enriches its producers through the expense of people’s miseries.

The fact people want appear on this type of show should be reason enough not to let them. BBCNews politicslive Cud prob say similar for politicians.

Shall we scrap religion then

If Mr Walker thinks Jeremy Kyle is cruel he should watch I am Daniel Blake and be reminded how cruel his party have been under the excuse of austerity for the last 9 years. (How is that deficit, by the way ?)

All of a sudden.. everyone gives a damn about a show that publicly ridicules people like Reality Shows. The fact people find them entertaining regardless of the cost.. is the issue here.

It’s a show about fruit loops watched mainly by fruit loops 😂

Love Island 148 episodes. 4 series. 2 deaths - suspected suicide This is still running though 😳

The guest applied to go on the show. The guest received a payment for being on the show. The guest then takes his life! Seems to me it was all the ‘guests’ choices & decisions.

Should been scrapped years ago

'warns' makes it sound like a bad thing
