Jeremy Kyle making telly comeback with two new ITV programmes

Daytime TV host Jeremy Kyle is set to return to the screen with two new shows.

His controversial daytime programme The Jeremy Kyle Show was axed earlier this year after a guest killed himself.

But the frontman will soon be back

In a new series of The Kyle Files he will tackle social issues using secret filming.

Ideas for the other programme are still in the melting pot with ITV bosses examining previous shows the 53-year-old has produced for the channel, Mirror Online reports.

These include Jeremy Kyle’s Emergency Room, in which people aired medical worries to doctors, and High Stakes, which offered big-money prizes but was axed after one run.

Jeremy Kyle cancelled indefinitely

A source revealed: “The Kyle Files will be back as usual in early 2020 and another show is being sought for him.”

Kyle, who once bragged he was “the most hated man in the UK, possibly the world”, was “devastated” last month when The Jeremy Kyle Show was axed after the suicide of guest Steve Dymond.

Earlier this week it emerged Kyle had turned down an invitation to be quizzed about the death by a committee of MPs.
