Awful. Those things are unreliable, if they weren’t they would be used by police, the government etc. There’s a reason why they don’t. But JK thinks they’re foolproof. Twat.Apparently a man killed himself because he failed a lie detector and was adamant he wasn’t lying. Resulted in his relationship ending.
ITV are already in the spotlight after two contestants from love island have taken their lives after love island. The show was trash I’m glad it’s gone. Poverty porn.
Exactly, whatever your opinions are about JK it's complete double standards! Itv have made a big show about this with JK to shift the spotlight away from Love Island, it's back in a couple of weeks and it's a big hit for the channel there is no way they will get rid of it suicide or not and that leaves a bad taste in my mouth.I believe that love island now needs to be taken off air too. I was never a fan of JK nor am I a fan of Love Island but in my opinion it's double standards to get rid of one and not the other when both shows have had people commit suicide!
Mine too! I've never liked love Island anyway, from what I understand it's all young, slim, fit people hooking up. Surely it must give the teens who watch it body issues?Exactly, whatever your opinions are about JK it's complete double standards!

I don't get why Love Island hasn't been taken off yet, especially since even celebs (I think Mario Falcone posted something about it) saying it should be/there's no aftercare for shows like that.I believe that love island now needs to be taken off air too.

Definitely. They even showed plastic surgery ads during the breaks (I didn't watch it put people were posting that they did on social media) and were only stopped once there was backlash. Its also pretty telling that they only attempt to have one 'smart' person per season, like the doctor and the explosives woman. The rest all seem to have jobs like model, influencer etc.Mine too!

That is the difference, the JK suicide was a week after filming, the Love Island suicides were a couple of years + after they were on the show, and they just happened to be Love Island contestants, I don’t know about Sophie, but mike had done other reality TV post Love Island, so why is it not Celebs Go Dating or whatever shows he’s been on that as to blame for his suicide.Just googled Sophie and Mike. From what I understand their deaths aren't directly linked to Love Island. Sophie had health worries and debt and Mike was in debt too. Maybe this is the deciding factor why Love Island is still going ahead. The JK case is directly linked to the show, it is the cause of the poor guy taking his own life. Regardless, any suicide is sad and they all have to be in a deep dark place to carry it out, very sad.
Oh no, that's so sadA family member of mine is autistic and went on the show and she got absolutely ripped into by the audience and Jeremy. All taking the piss out of her. If we knew about it we would of stopped her going
Nope a lie detector test to see if she’s been cheating (she hadn’t)Oh no, that's so sadWas she on to discuss Autism? How inappropriate of Jeremy/the audience

Love Island definitely has its problems no doubt about that. But the situations are not the same.
I agree, but I feel every time something like this happens, people pipe up about mental health all 'talk to someone, people care' for a week or so, then forget about it and the person who died. It happened with the Love Island suicides, Robin Williams, Keith Flint, Kate Spade. I think the only suicide where the media/fans still talk about it regularly is Chester Bennington, as his wife set up that foundation and is trying to raise awareness.I think the bigger picture has been somewhat lost with this. Suicide is what should be getting more attention. It's one of the biggest killers in the country, espically for adult males.
Agreed, I wish Piers Morgan would do one. I think he goes off on one simply because he knows it gives him attention and will rile people up, like every time he complains about woman or vegan options. He's a professional troll. Katie Hopkins is another one. Thankfully I haven't heard much of her since she went bankrupt.Reality tv as a whole is completely toxic. Jeremy Kyle was probably the worst and it’s a shame it took this to make people realise just how damaging it is. He’s a gross individual, much like Piers Morgan, who of course was out on twitter defending him. He’s another one that needs to go. It’s actually shameful that ITV continue to employ him.
