Take Me Out: ITV bosses 'infuriated by totally unacceptable scandals'

Take Me Out: ITV bosses 'infuriated by totally unacceptable scandals'

ITV bosses have reportedly become infuriated over the string of Take Me Out scandals that emerged this week.

The show came under fire after the revelation that contestant Aaron Withers was convicted of assault last year and used to work as an escort, which was followed by his date Wen-Jing Mo's admission that she was once a £200 per-hour prostitute.

Senior figures at ITV are said to have blamed the controversy on Take Me Out production company Talkback Thames, accusing them of failing to uncover the pair's "extremely embarrassing" pasts during background checks.

"These revelations are being taken extremely seriously. It is infuriating to be learning about a different scandal every day," an insider told The Mirror. "Letting these types of people on to what is supposed to be an early evening family show is totally unacceptable. Things need to change - and fast.

"The ITV brand is being dragged through the mud. The experienced people who are making these shows have been left in no doubt as to the level of disappointment and dismay here. They accept there are ways in which these scandals can be prevented. This whole incident has been extremely embarrassing."

A representative for Talkback Thames confirmed that the company "will be reviewing procedures" in light of the scandal.

The spokesperson added: "During the application process we ask contestants to declare any convictions and background checks are carried out on each individual. Aaron's criminal record did not come to light."

It has been revealed that footage of Withers and Mo on a date will be cut from tomorrow's (January 14) edition of the show.

Vinny Guadagnino has revealed that he is suffering from anxiety and exhaustion and has left MTV's Jersey Shore.

In last night's episode of the reality show, Vinny was seen being taken away from the Seaside Heights shared home in a cab. Earlier, Guadagnino told his co-stars that he was unhappy living in the house and had to leave.

"It's best for me. I've got to get myself better and here I'm suffering," Vinny told his best friend Pauly D.

"I'm not happy. I'm doing what's best for myself and that's it."

Speaking to his family, Vinny said: "I want you to come and get me. I've been strong, I'm a fighter but there is no fight left in me. So I've made the decision, I'm going to leave here."

Pauly D and Ronnie Ortiz-Magro had attempted to lift Vinny's spirits and persuade him to stay by organising a man day, but their efforts failed and Vinny was later shown talking to Shore Store owner Danny about his clinical anxiety and the fact that working on the show wasn't a healthy environment for him.

It has not been revealed whether Vinny will return to Jersey Shore later in the season.

'Dracula' soap opera in development at NBC

'Dracula' soap opera in development at NBC

NBC is developing a new drama series based on iconic vampire Count Dracula.

The adaptation, scripted by Cole Haddon, will be set in the 1890s and has been pitched as a "soap opera", according to Deadline.

Colin Callender and 24's Tony Krantz will produce the project, which has also been described as "young, sexy and supernatural" and resembling "Dangerous Liaisons meets The Tudors".

The show has a script-to-series commitment with NBC, meaning that it will bypass a filmed pilot and go straight to series if the network approves of Haddon's pilot script.

Famous adaptations of Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula include a 1931 film version starring Bela Lugosi, a 1958 release with Christopher Lee and Francis Ford Coppola's 1992 adaptation.

NBC is developing a number of horror-themed shows for the 2012-13 television season, including a remake of The Munsters from Pushing Daisies creator Bryan Fuller.

X-Men and Superman Returns director Bryan Singer is in line to produce and direct the pilot.

Fuller is also working on a series featuring cannibalistic serial killer Hannibal Lecter, the character famously played by Anthony Hopkins in 1991 film The Silence of the Lambs.

Axed X Factor contestant Cocozza kissed everyone, including Norcross, during the game.

The second Celebrity Big Brother eviction airs tonight (January 13) on Channel 5. Nicola McLean and Natasha Giggs face the public vote.
