ITV won't commission another show with the "Jeremy Kyle" format
ITV will not commision another show with the same format as tabloid talkshow "The Jeremey Kyle Show" which was cancelled last month, its boss told MPs.
"We won't commission a show with that (format)," ITV Chief Executive Carolyn McCall said in evidence to the British parliament's Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Committee which is investigating the support offered to participants in reality TV shows, both during and after filming.
Its inquiry was prompted by the death of Steven Dymond, a participant in "The Jeremy Kyle Show" and the deaths of two former contestants in the broadcaster's popular dating show "Love Island".
The "Jeremy Kyle Show" was axed following Dymond's death.
