Jeremy Kyle viewers are complaining on Twitter because GMB carried on with extended coverage.


It gets shown often enough on ITV2, and really it's more suitable for that channel than the main ITV channel, so new episodes should air on there, rather than ITV.


I doubt JK would get 1m viewers for a new episode on ITV2.

I think it would get that 1m viewers. Just remember, this is ITV2 we're talking about, available on every platform. There's more loyalty to programmes now than to channels. Pre-switchover, I wouldn't have thought so. Now, I think it can.

In that case, lets move This Morning and Loose Women to a minority multi-channel instead.

On what grounds? Both programmes fit the ITV audience profile, better than Jeremy Kyle does. Whereas Jeremy Kyle fits ITV2 better. I think you're just being silly for the sake of it.

Don't forget a lot of the female skewed programming was moved over to ITVBe. So ITV2 is more a young-skewed general entertainment channel now.

AFAIK the only female-oriented show ITV2 air at the moment is The Ellen Show, which frankly surprises me how it didn't end up on ITVBe.

Well they don't call it Good Friday for nothing - not a single episode of Jeremy Kyle in the ITV schedule tomorrow, and even the ITV2 afternoon triple bill is dropped for the day. Thunderbirds are Go is taking the 9.25am all weekend with double episodes from Friday to Monday, though it's back to the usual weekend schedule the following week with Murder She Wrote and Formula E.

Also see that despite running throughout the summer that Loose Women is off air, replaces by Gok's Lunchbox for the next two weeks.

The EPG says this episode of The Chase on now is new but I have a feeling this may be a repeat.

It's the first of the second part of the new series that started before Christmas, it isn't a repeat.

This may have already been discussed but I was wondering when ITV started trailing their shows in the cinema. Went to see Eddie the Eagle (at Vue) the other day (which was very good by the way) and The Durrels was trailed before hand, is this something which has just started?

Similarly Eddie the Eagle is the first film I've seen as a sponsor for programmes, both on C4 and ITV2.
