Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Jeremy Kyle Show was a long-running British Talk Show which aired weekdays on ITV in the UK. It ran from 2005 to 2019.Hosted by former radio host Jeremy Kyle, the show began in 2005 and dealt with current hot-button issues, including DNA tests, affairs, alcohol/drug use, dysfunctional families, abuse and more. Jeremy also used a lie detector in cases involving accusations between guests involved in infidelity, familial disputes or thefts. There were also numerous special episodes that deal with unique cases like physical/mental illnesses, prostitution and celebrities.The main aspect that separated the show from American tabloid talk shows like Maury and Jerry Springer is that Kyle was a much more hands-on host, who wouldn't hesitate to call out guests for being duplicitous or criticize both of the main parties. He typically straight up told his guests to get themselves together instead of goading them into getting more dramatic (as is more typical for talk show hosts). He also got very personally involved in the guests' problems, using Brutal Honesty or sitting in front of them to deliver advice.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })In 2011, a Transatlantic Equivalent began airing on The CW and FOX affiliates in the States. It lasted two seasons before being cancelled in 2013.Production was suspended and the show removed from the ITV schedules and online catch-up service ITV Hub in May 2019, because a guest committed suicide a week after filming an episode in which a lie detector indicated he was cheating on his girlfriend.note Contrary to what the show implied, lie detectors are notoriously unreliable in determining if the person tested is telling the truth or not and are not accepted as evidence in most courts of law so any results need to be taken with, at best, a grain of salt. Speculation abounds as to whether the show had a direct role in influencing this person's unfortunate death, which as of 2022 seems to be the most likely cause. In any case, one day after being suspended, the show was canceled.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })A Channel 4 documentary broadcast in 2022 entitled Jeremy Kyle: Death on Daytime alleged serious malpractice in the production, with guests deliberately riled up and manipulated, the staff themselves not being treated much better. Interviews conducted during the documentary with the families of guests, as well as ex-staff from the show, found that the single suicide that caused the series to be cancelled is likely not the only one that occurred during its tenure on ITV. Kyle is currently taking legal action over claims he sees as defamatory. | |

An episode in late 2012 had Jeremy leave the stage in complete rage when three guests argue about the life of an unborn child and how its grave was vandalized by them. However, in the lie detector results, it is revealed that it was in retaliation of child's mother posting photos of dead babies online to torment her former, then-pregnant friend. Jeremy ended up sympathizing with the mother's supporting friends who are shocked by her actions. | |

"It" Is Dehumanizing | |
| The Jeremy Kyle Show / int_16ad6f7f | comment |
"It" Is Dehumanizing: Jeremy often calls wife-beaters "that" instead of any gender pronoun. However the only abuser that received sympathy from Jeremy was when the abuser's mother contacted Jeremy and told him that her son was haunted by his survivor's guilt and didn't receive help for his problems. | |

Papa Wolf: Jeremy can get very angry when it comes to the guests who let their actions endanger or neglect the lives of children. Fitting because Jeremy is a father himself. On one episode, in which a guest was revealed to have treated his staff horribly, Jeremy mentions that among his staff included kids, who he outright states that they're not paid nearly enough for their hard work. | |

| The Jeremy Kyle Show / int_24321e44 | comment |
Only Sane Man: Often whenever the guests argue to the point of the subjects turning into nothing, Jeremy often becomes this. One segment was about two elderly women who were neighbours that hated each other and much of their confrontations and rumour-spreading happened when the two of them went to bingo, so Jeremy tells them to not go to bingo and suggests another bit of entertainment where they didn't have to see each other. Some lie detector tests are over strange things. The most infamous questions were "Did you poo in my garden?" and "Have you ever used a chocolate wrapper as a condom?" | |

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Many guests are revealed to be this at times. A major example is a woman named Zara, who claims to be caught in the middle between her estranged husband and her friend. Said husband blames the friend for ruining their marriage while she in turn sees him as a Domestic Abuser. It turns out that Zara has been badmouthing one to the other so that their animosity would be focused on each other. All so she can steal said friend's husband from her. | |

British Teeth | |
| The Jeremy Kyle Show / int_29d4ec8a | comment |
British Teeth: Seemingly a requirement of the people Jeremy "helps". Parodied here. Exaggerated and deconstructed in one case — a guest had absolutely horrible teeth (her incisors were sticking out at 40-degree angles and the teeth beside them were completely gone) because she accidentally smashed her face into a street light as a kid. She was on the show because of the extreme bullying she received from another guest who dismissed her onstage by yelling at her to brush her teeth. After her appearance, her Facebook wall was vandalized by trolls who were making fun of her appearance. The Aftercare team paid to have her teeth surgically fixed in a later episode, and it wasn't even a Very Special Episode. | |

Tranquil Fury | |
| The Jeremy Kyle Show / int_443b78cd | comment |
Tranquil Fury: Jeremy Kyle himself expressed this on a rare occasion when a male domestic abuse sufferer was talking about the horrific injuries he suffered while trying to escape from his abusive partner. When he stated that he had to jump from a third-storey window and suffer multiple fractures on the ground, Jeremy's audience (which was made up almost completely by women for that specific episode) proceeded to laugh and belittle him for several seconds. Jeremy proceeded to unleash a long speech where he chewed them out. To make matters worse, the audience then went deathly quiet, probably assuming the "If I am quiet, I can put the blame on someone else" fallacy. | |

Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male | |
| The Jeremy Kyle Show / int_46ed396b | comment |
Sometimes played straight with the audience and averted by Jeremy. Men guilty of domestic abuse and less with almost always get booed at while women guilty of the same will often get away. And while Jeremy has a special hatred for wife bashers, he gives the same treatment to both genders and will for example call out his audience when they laugh at male domestic abuse victims. | |

The Atoner: Jeremy is this, since he lost his first marriage to a gambling addiction but changed his ways, and has admitted to stealing his dad’s car and crashing it when he was 18 and hadn’t passed his test. However, this does often invoke a case of No True Scotsman when he tries to take the higher ground and makes a Badass Boast over someone suffering through the throes of the same or a similar addiction. | |

Face/Heel Double-Turn | |
| The Jeremy Kyle Show / int_5296dbd4 | comment |
Face/Heel Double-Turn: One notable segment was a follow-up involving a woman named Christina, who came on the show to call out her boyfriend Michael for not doing enough to support the child they had together. Jeremy spends most of the original segment telling Michael off for being a deadbeat father, including yelling in his face and repeatedly insulting him. In a follow-up, Christina comes on the show to "prove" that Michael is the father with a DNA test. However, as soon as she begins speaking, Jeremy's expressions become confused, and he asks her why she's coming on if she already knows that Michael is the father. Christina says she doesn't want him to be the father because he doesn't do enough to support their son, and jokingly admits that she saw a picture of an ex-boyfriend two months before the segment who looked like her child. Jeremy immediately realizes that he was in the wrong for yelling at Michael in the past, and proceeds to lay a protracted verbal smackdown on Christina for lying to both Michael and him. He also realizes that she likely knew Michael wasn't the father in her original appearance, and points out a moment where she smiled while talking about how useless Michael is. | |

Catchphrase | |
| The Jeremy Kyle Show / int_b01abe4f | comment |
Catchphrase: He often has to remind a guest that won't shut up that "it's called The Jeremy Kyle Show". Almost every time before he reveals the result of a Lie Detector or DNA test he says "Well, well, well", This is for the previews of what's happening next before the commercial break. During reading the results of a lie detector test, Jeremy often followed some version of this: "Put something on the end of it". Used so often it is lampshaded by guests. "I'm going to do something I haven't done in 'X' years." Said regardless of whether he did said thing fairly recently or not. "The DNA test showed that [guest]... (Beat) is/is not the child's biological father!" The guests in general are prone to using the phrase "at the end of the day" - parodied here Jeremy will often mention how long he's been running the show for when talking to guests. "When this goes out, no one will touch you with a barge pole!" | |

Berserk Button | |
| The Jeremy Kyle Show / int_bc74ef27 | comment |
Berserk Button: Jeremy can lose his temper with the drop of a hat, hating lazy, ignorant and selfish people, particularly when there are young parents involved. He also despises racism and homophobia. Perhaps the angriest he ever gets is towards male abusers of women. In some instances, he has gone so far as to instruct Graham to ignore them, deny them aftercare and called one (particularly nasty) individual "scum." Even so, he isn't above giving both barrels to women who abuse men, and is more than willing to point out the double standard involved when such a story is featured. An episode in late 2012 had Jeremy leave the stage in complete rage when three guests argue about the life of an unborn child and how its grave was vandalized by them. However, in the lie detector results, it is revealed that it was in retaliation of child's mother posting photos of dead babies online to torment her former, then-pregnant friend. Jeremy ended up sympathizing with the mother's supporting friends who are shocked by her actions. Jeremy also once called for an advert break minutes earlier than expected after a guest entered on stage and promptly punched his own mother hard in the face. Jeremy stormed off the stage in utter rage, and the guest can be heard yelling 'Stupid Cunt!' even as the advert break is called in. | |

The studio audience breaks out laughing after a guest reveals that his girlfriend locked him in a room and made him unable to leave, forcing him to leap off a third-storey window and injure himself in the fall in order to escape. Kyle proceeds to call the audience out on this, pointing out that if the genders were reversed in this situation, the man would be perceived as a monster. | |

Guilty Pleasure: Between the deer-in-the-headlights reactions from guests, Jeremy calling people out for being liars and the matter-of-fact nature of the segments, it is eminently watchable television. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here | |
| The Jeremy Kyle Show / int_d9cf40fa | comment |
Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Jeremy once walked out on a show because a guest threatened him. After a break, the show's lie detector results were read backstage. | |

Daddy DNA Test | |
| The Jeremy Kyle Show / int_e6aea6b2 | comment |
Daddy DNA Test: Interestingly downplayed compared to American tabloid talk shows (like Maury) that use it as a centerpiece. While Jeremy does announce the results, he doesn't draw out the announcement nor does he sympathize with those who defend the partner that refuses to accept that the child is theirs. | |

Lie Detector | |
| The Jeremy Kyle Show / int_e8b49369 | comment |
Lie Detector: The second most common problem solver, used to sort out truths for guests who cannot trust each other. Results and reactions are often saved for advert breaks. It should be noted that lie detectors/polygraphs do not actually detect lies. The machine's readout indicates how stressed someone is in response to a question. Kyle has claimed in the past that the tests are 97% accurate. Actually, lie detector tests are closer to 70% accurate, and that's under perfect circumstances when performed by a skilled professional. Their usage played a major part in the suicides that led to the show's cancellation, as participants relied upon their results as if they were gospel with no caveats being provided. | |

No Indoor Voice: Most guests and Jeremy spend their time arguing and it can turn into a contest of who can shout the loudest. | |
