Please excuse some shameless copy and paste here .. it is an interesting take on things though , I feel

People are comparing LI to the Jeremy Kyle tragedy and saying that Love Island should also be axed.

Sad because the people saying that have never watched Love Island and are quite anti reality TV in general. I only started watching Love Island last year, having been a massive Big Brother supporter. It has been a revelation to me at just how respectful the programme is. I think non watchers see it as some kind of organised drunken orgy, couldn't be further from the truth, little alcohol and we only really see the odd kiss. The contestants do seem to watch out for each other as well. It's very sad that those deaths will be associated with it, particularly as in each case there were much bigger factors involved.

I mean this is a big statement to make considering this is literally a forum for Big Brother and other Reality TV shows....unless that comment was aimed at the general public rather than this forum?
