The Jeremy Kyle Show went on to produce a staggering 3,320 episodes between the years of its first airing right up until its final episode in 2019.

One of the most famous episodes of involved the likes of Hulse who backed his extreme body modifications.

"What’s wrong with it?" he asked before noting, "I’m still the same person inside."

The drama followed the then 27-year-old who made the decision to leave his girlfriend, Catherine, very unhappy with his new inked-up look.

The new look in question involved Hulse getting his entire face tattooed in a skull design.

Equally baffled, Kyle responded: "I’m slightly struggling as to why anyone would have a skull tattooed on their face."

The host ended the episode saying that Hulse looked 'ridiculous'.
