HE SHOULD WORK IN TESCO SAYS EX GUEST

A JEREMY Kyle Show veteran is demanding the telly host is forced to “work in Tesco” instead of being handed a big money comeback.

Stephen Beer, 49, was on the show seven times and says aggressive Kyle “has a lot to answer for” after the death of fellow guest Steve Dymond.

Kyle’s new agent confirmed last month the 54-yearold would “have his say” after a year of “battling the unimaginab­le consequenc­es” of having his show axed.

Stephen, who has also appeared on Channel 5’s Too Fat

To Work, has previously claimed he was forced to stage a fake affair by Kyle’s producers.

He said: “I think that the Jeremy Kyle Show itself shouldn’t come back at all – he and the production team has a lot to answer for.

“If they considered doing another show, they need to monitor it more.

“Get him a job in Tesco or something because I don’t think he should be allowed to come back.

“There will be a lot of people that will be upset about him coming back again and, for me, I don’t want to see him on television.”

The show was pulled off the air in May 2019 after guest Steve Dymond, 62, was found dead in his home.

He took his own life days after an appearance where he failed a lie detector test.

Stephen, from Plymouth, has questioned how Steve’s family would feel about Kyle’s comeback.

He said: “I have no idea if he sent Steven’s family a donation for the funeral or some flowers, all I can say about him from my point of view is he was nasty to me, and I know he has got to make a living, but he is just interested in TV ratings.

“I know he has his supporters and people do want him to come back but can you imagine how Steven’s family is going to feel.

“He cares more about his TV ratings – he doesn’t care about people at all.”
