Would You Go On the Jeremy Kyle Show?

Do they get a free bar in the hotel the night before the show?

They don't get paid to go on it, it's done for free so a friend of mine said.

I guess there are lots of different stories, I heard they got £500 expenses and a night in a hotel.

And a free DNA test :-D

Not in a million years! I do like to watch it though, it's hilarious and cringeworthy but it's my secret vice lol.

JK is the vilest of the vile.

Nuff said I think.

Horrid man :mad:

And I'd shrivel up and die of embarrassment if I was on there. I can't bear the thought of being on any TV programme let alone that horses**t.

A few years ago a journalist went behind the scenes and wrote a report on it and it makes depressing reading. She claimed they do everything they can to influence the audience before the show and are not taking account of mental health problems. I just think the whole thing is so unethical and I can't believe they use lie detector tests which are regarded as being fairly dodgy.

I would not go on it. I don't see the point. Why would you want to talk about your problems on TV. Sort them out with the person or walk away. I don't understand how going on TV would help. And I wonder whether it would damage your career. You wouldn't want to be recognised in a job interview.

I`ve been in the audience of JK with 3 friends and no way were we influenced by anyone. It was a laugh .We were also `taught` how to clap , either softly or hard :D

I wouldn't be seen dead on the Jeremy Kyle show.

I wouldn't want to be in the audience either, not even if someone paid me.:o

Exactly, they do it for the £300 fee and get their 15 minutes of fame.

The one time i happen to watch it in years and i hear this from some gormless wonder...

Would never appear but I watch from time to time. It makes me feel like the most fantastic parent with the the most fantastic son. DS hates me watching as he says it is the most manipulative rubbish and exploits the stupid and the vulnerable. He doesn't have anything good to say about Judge Judy either and I looove her!!;)
