The Jeremy Kyle Show has been permanently cancelled following the death of a guest as MPs announced an inquiry into all reality TV.

The confrontational talk show was suspended indefinitely by the broadcaster after a participant, 63-year-old Steve Dymond, was found dead a week after the programme was filmed.

On Wednesday, ITV announced the show has now ended for good following an outcry for it to be cancelled from MPs and members of the public.

But the broadcaster said that it will continue to work with Kyle on other projects.

Mr Dymond went on the show in a bid to convince his fiancee that he had not been unfaithful. He took a lie detector test but failed. He continued to protest his innocence and was found dead a week later.

The issue has raised further questions over the duty of care given to participants who appear on the popular shows, and prompted the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport committee to announce an inquiry into reality TV.

Committee chairman Damian Collins said: "ITV has made the right decision to permanently cancel the Jeremy Kyle Show.

"However, that should not be the end of the matter. There needs to be an independent review of the duty of care TV companies have to participants in reality TV shows and the DCMS select committee has decided to hold an inquiry this summer into these issues.
