Representing the family of Mr Dymond, Ms Caoilfhionn Gallagher QC read an extract from Kyle's witness statement, in which the presenter says: "I didn't behave in a goading manner at all."
I always think of this whenever I hear Noel Edmonds!I believe Noel Edmonds has offered Kyle his congratulations on joining that select band of light entertainers who've killed one of their contestants.
Are itv still knocking out love island? Seems some double standards if so seeing as it has multiple suicides on its hands.
Are what linked? mentally unstable contestants plunged into a vanity show then having the limelight removed has led to three suicides though. Why won't it happen again? Kyle had a suicide and immediately got cancelled. It just leads me to think it's a popularity decision rather than ethics.Are they linked?
I imagine most reality TV stars aren’t exactly mentally stable in the first place TBF.

Oh I see, I'm not too sure to be totally honest. I just don't think it's a great look for ITV.I meant had they referenced the show specifically or was it a general thing about being a reality TV star. I hadn’t heard so was just curious.
The whole genre seems massively exploitative, but when it’s dirt cheap to make and massively popular I can’t see much happening.
I’m not too comfortable screening for MH as everyone handles it differently and it might be good for some people or neutral. I’d rather the entire thing was banned or there’s support for contestants as standard. Not sure what that would look like.
Where are the Irish contingent to tell me how to pronounce the QC's first name, too!

Is this this generations Barrymore?
You picked up a bloke in a nightclub?That was someone he picked up in a nightclub though. We've all got those skeletons in our cupboard (or in my case, buried under the shed).
Indeed-human bear baiting at its finest.Jeremy Kyle type shows are another vile American import. Kyle was particularly bad as they'd often bring in people of obvious low intelligence to be humiliated on stage. Barbaric really and hope that c**t Kyle feels guilty about it.
So the obvious question to ask is, should we be putting people who aren't mentally stable on tv for other peoples entertainment ?Are they linked?

Kyle was just a puppet, a front man. No better or worse than many in his position. In fact imo the viewers are equally culpable as is the society in which we live craving to see things go further all the time.
Easy to hate Kyle but has quite a sad back story as an ex-addict. Not making excuses for him, he has a part to play in this although I do think the media who helped put him there, the same ones who vilified him, also have a hand in this.
Tbh if I blame anyone in this, it's Micky Adams for signing him.
Yeah, you'd think with the moralising after it was cancelled, that it had zero audience.Kyle was just a puppet, a front man. No better or worse than many in his position. In fact imo the viewers are equally culpable as is the society in which we live craving to see things go further all the time.
