About time too! Why was the exploitation of vulnerable people for entertainment allowed to go on for so long?

I guess that this is reality TV. As T.S. Eliot said:-"Humankind cannot bear very much reality".

Horrible programme, I'm glad these things are finally being scrutinised.

I was staggered to read that it got 1 million viewers!? Sad that so many people derive entertainment from the misfortune of others

Nobody forced anybody to go on the show.

No Simon, but given the vulnerability of their "guests", I have read that they are offered a free trip to where the filming takes place, free hotel accommodation and the possibility of free counselling and/or rehab.
Sure, but all the "guests" obviously knew the shows format. Caveat emptor springs to mind.
