0:00.0	Jeremy, how did it feel to get blamed for someone's death after your show?
0:06.0	It's a really interesting question because I have to say that I've thought about that so many times over the last five years.
0:11.6	And that's the most important thing to say to you. Somebody died.
0:15.5	I know now, as I perhaps knew all the way through, but perhaps it's now out there.
0:20.1	There were many reasons
0:21.0	that Steve Diamond sadly took his own life. It was not down, as the coroner said, what, six
0:27.6	weeks ago, to ITV or the Jeremy Cow Show, but you become a really easy target. And I think if
0:32.8	you're doing a show like that, that's quite vociferous, quite raw, you put yourself out there. It was a
0:39.7	difficult time, not just for me. It was difficult for 100 kids who worked their asses off and

1:09.1	I didn't select after care, do any of that with the guests. I met Steve
1:13.8	Diamond, tragic Steve Diamond for 11 minutes. And for him and his family, it's so sad that
1:18.7	that happened. But it was really important that the truth came out. Five years was far too long,
1:23.7	COVID, of course, the legal system. And people who I will not get involved with criticizing ever, you know, all put their two pennyworth in. And in the meantime, COVID, of course, the legal system. And people who I will not get involved with criticizing
1:28.1	ever, you know, all put their too pennyworth in. And in the meantime, I was, I guess you'd
1:32.7	say, understandably, the man that got blamed for everything, to be fair. And so that whole
