Jeremy Kyle

[Caribeing]

Just reading about a contestant or should I say victim who says he was asked to wear track suit top on show said he arrived in a nice jumper was asked to change, just confirms my naive suspicions that they must turn up in leggings baggy tops etc, have a tooth knocked out etc!!!!

My OH is convinced they are all acting. He won't hear any different.

[Caribeing]

Prudie kind of agree with your oh who in their right mind would go on that show! watch it sometimes makes you feel good that your life is great!

Now I know where the Mail gets some of these stories from - they nick them from local newspapers http://www.northdevonjournal.co.uk/Jeremy-Kyle-forced-Barnstaple-dad-don-tracksuit/story-25978777-detail/story.html

Who actually watches Jeremy Kyle?

[B00]

I watch it, its a secret pleasure :-)

Not sure bout acting, but I know they're not actors Prudie as I now know of two couples who've been on the show.

[Prudie]

No I don't think he's right Boo although I do think a lot of it is put on by the guests. I always watch JK if I have a day off work.

[B00]

I always try to watch it if im not working, it's car crash telly, it's brilliant and always makes me and mine appear classy and normal!

[237SJ]

I couldn`t bring myself to watch that ***. Jeremy Kyle has a show in the US now - as if the Americans haven`t got enough rubbish TV to watch.

[Daffy6543]

They aren't acting, well not all of them anyway. There was a family from an estate where I used to live on it a few years ago, I didn't/don't watch it myself but by all accounts it was a corker. lol

The family were a mum who was a drug addict who pimped out her daughter in the local pubs for drug money. I know the children of the family as they went to school with my kids and lived up the road from us, the whole sorry story is/was true.

The mother died a couple of years ago aged early 40s.

You have some nice friends Boo, surprised you admitted that?????

[PankySmooch]

She said she knows of two couples, how's that make them friends?

[SirOracle]

Apart from the track-suit wearing,every one seems to be grossly overweight,at least over 20 stones minimum.

[Cloverjo]

I know of some people who have been on. They are plied with booze and encouraged to argue.

[B00]

Cheers Panky, as you've correctly surmised they aren't/weren't friends. One was a family of a work colleague and another couple were customers (co-op) of mine.
