    Good ****ing riddance. It is a disgrace shows like that even exist.

    The fact it took someone taking their own life to see that is disgusting and heartbreaking.

    Do they get participants through a modern day press gang snatching them off the streets, or do the people on the show apply to go on and so through their own choice?

    100% agree, I only saw part of one show once, and couldn't understand how people find that entertaining.

    I think I read somewhere they apply to go on. There's no payment involved except they get a night in a posh hotel all expenses covered then the 10 minutes of glory on the telly.

    He's a big mate of Phil Brown. I can't understand anyone who gets a kick out of goading vulnerable people.

    Mind you, we have one or two on here who fall into that category at times.

    According to whistle blower on BBC.Each paid £600 to go on JK show. Put up in 5 star hotel, encouraged to get trolled the night before. The more aggressive and wound up the better. Sounds good to me.

    Architect Leoh Ming Pei, has died aged 102.

    He produced many significant buildings, but is most well known for the glass pyramid at the Louvre.

    I know it's not today. But RIP Kirsty. What a brave woman.

    Tragic final words of 'Angel of London Bridge' are revealed

    Kirsty Boden bravely ran towards the terror attack in June 2017 to help other victims

    The heroic final moments of a woman dubbed the Angel of London Bridge have been revealed today, including how she told friends: 'I'm a nurse, I have to go and help', before she was attacked by all three terrorists.

    Kirsty Boden, 28, was excitedly talking about plans to be a bridesmaid at her friend's wedding after getting the last table at Boro Bistro when French waiter Alexandre Pigeard, 26, was knifed amid the slaughter on June 3, 2017.

    Desperate to help, she ran to his aid and now CCTV footage has revealed her brave final actions. She is seen entering the restaurant and getting the last table, before the knife rampage ensues.

    Noticing Mr Pigeard in trouble she tells her friends to stay behind, holding her arm in the air as a warning. Not seen in the footage, she then rushes over to the stricken waiter before she is brutally set upon by all three knifemen.

    The Old Bailey heard how Khuram Butt, 27, appeared to make a stabbing motion before Rachid Redouane, 30, and Youssef Zaghba, 22, also moved in.

    The tip of Butt's 12-inch pink ceramic blade was later found embedded in her head. CCTV video showed her clearly injured as she fled the carnage before she collapsed.

    Someone truly deserving of that word too glibly thrown about nowadays, a hero.

    I know it had its own thread, but if we are giving oxygen to Jeremy Kyle (I mean .... Jeremy?!! FFS) then my deepest commiserations to that bastion of everything Black and Amber.

    Mondays will no longer be the same without the match reports and TWTWT.

    RIP Amber Nectar - you are already missed.
