THE host of controversial TV show Fat Families has said he has no regrets over how ‘mean’ he was.
The hit weight loss show, which was presented by Steve Miller, aired on former digital channel Sky One over a decade ago.

Steve called himself the “lard police” during the series
Steve, who was the self-described “lard police” and “no-nonsense fat buster” would deliver harsh and jaw-dropping one-liners during the show.
In one episode, he told viewers: “In this show I’m about to meet the biggest bunch of blokes I’ve ever set eyes on.
“These fatties haven’t seen their feet for years. Well, prepare yourselves boys, the belly-buster is in town.”
Clips of Miller’s no-nonsense approach and put downs on the show have gone viral on social media.
But with a new audience being left somewhat stunned by the language and approach that was taken on the show, Steve has said he doesn’t regret his comments.
He exclusively told The Celeb Report Online: “I absolutely have no regrets whatsoever because that show was lovely.
“We had a lovely team and we had great participants. We had fall-outs but they were shown on the telly.
“I don’t have any regrets, because if it was coming from a place of being nasty then that would be different.
“It came from a place of ‘I actually care about you lot’, and we’re going to do it in a fun way and we’re not going to have one of these boring TV shows, we’re going to make entertainment and make ourselves laugh during it.”
He added: “What made Fat Families was the halo effect of the one-liners, especially the North Yorkshire, North Porkshire one, which is my favourite!”
One episode saw Steve meet a man and his adult sons who were dangerously overweight.
During the show he filmed up close at one participant’s stomach, which left him in tears as he said: “I can’t believe that’s me. I can’t believe what I’ve done to myself.”
Fat Families saw the health guru move in with overweight participants and overhaul their lifestyles.
Over 10 weeks they would be given a meal plan and fitness equipment to help them shed the pounds.
Each family member was given a target amount of weight to lose – with episodes culminating in them revealing their brand new slimmer physiques.
The first series of Fat Families alone saw the participating six families lose a combined 539lbs- or 38.5st between them.
