The Kyle Files - Season 3
Season 3
Jeremy Kyle returns for a new series investigating high-profile issues that impact on people's lives - from drinking to irresponsible driving, and from hate crime to homelessness.
Each week, Jeremy and the Kyle Files team get to the heart of the matter as they work with the emergency services, film covertly, interview victims and confront protagonists to demand answers.
Episodes
Extreme Eaters
Jeremy looks at Britain's obesity crisis, lifting the lid on the competitive world of eating challenges, a craze from America which involves people consuming huge portions of food within a time limit. He meets a woman from the West Midlands who claims to be able to take on any eating challenge. The programme also visits a fast food restaurant in Las Vegas which encourages customers to eat calorie laden, unhealthy meals - apparently in the name of education - and Jeremy confronts its owner about his approach.
Danger at the Wheel
This episode focuses on the issue of irresponsible driving, particularly when combined with the use of mobile phones at the wheel. He goes out on patrol with a specialist police team who tackle what they call the ‘Fatal Five' - speeding, driving without a seatbelt, driving while distracted, careless driving, and being behind the wheel under the influence of drugs or drink. And he meets a man who openly admits to having driven under the influence of hard drugs.
Dangers of a Night Out
In this programme, Jeremy explores drinking culture and the dangers revellers face on a night out in Britain. He visits Norwich, which perhaps surprisingly appears in statistics as one of the top five places for drink-related hospital admissions in the UK. He asks the man who represents the night-time industry in Britain whether licensees should take responsibility for the scenes he has witnessed. And the programme hears from two families affected by tragedies caused directly by drinking.
Dangerous Dogs
Jeremy investigates how dogs bred to attack are being used by gangs as weapons and by individuals as status symbols. He meets members of the Met Police's status dogs unit, and speaks to gang members who tell him how they train the canines to be more aggressive.
He also speaks to a pitbull fan who believes the banned dog has been given a bad press, meets a dog trainer who says with the right training any pooch can be tamed, and is set upon by a trained attack dog to gain an insight into the experience.
Britain's Homeless
Following reports that homelessness in Britain is rising, Jeremy looks into the plight of Britain's rough sleepers. He visits a tent city protest, and his team spends a day with a homeless man, learning about his daily struggles and happy former life. The programme goes undercover to investigate the issue of abuse against rough sleepers, and Jeremy goes out in disguise with a homeless man to experience life on the streets. He also meets hairdresser Josh Coombes - who offers free trims to the homeless.
Hate Crime
Following Brexit, and with the news that levels of hate crime were on the rise even before June 2016, Jeremy investigates how tensions between different groups are simmering. The programme visits Bolton to witness a demonstration against plans for a new mosque, and Jeremy attends a mediation meeting between the two sides aimed at reaching an amicable resolution. He also looks at a rise in homophobic attacks, joining revellers at Pride Manchester, and meeting a participant who has been physically abused because of his sexuality. The programme also features a social experiment to find out who might intervene when a waitress starts abusing a gay couple.
