What disturbs me is, the sort of people they choose for the show; its is very deliberate form of exploitation. They don't pick people who are well groomed with pearly whites. They don't pick articulate speakers because this isn't what the JK show is about. Instead they pick what Kyle would call the dregs of society. They pick vulnerable people with complex personal problems. I've seen people on that show who lack the ability to string two coherent words together; people who clearly can't articulate themselves because they have learning difficulties and who only know anger as an emotional response.
They deliberately pick people who their audience see as chavs/untouchables because apparently its fair game to bear bait these undesirables. Its the very thing that have their audience laughing and shaking their heads in disbelief.
Of course these people go on the show. The Vicky Pollard's of this world aren't are far less likely to understand that a polygraph test would never stand up in a court of law as 'proof' of anything. There is a lot of coercion that goes on behind the scenes and according to many who have been on his show, a whole heap of false promises.
In my opinion, having a few good outcomes amongst this fodder isn't enough to make the Jeremy Kyle show good viewing.
