A REALITY show based on the hit Daddy Day Care movie has been axed by Channel 4 — because of the row over Girls And Boys Alone.
The Daddy Day Care series was to take five dads and get them to run a nursery for a week.

It was inspired by Eddie Murphy’s 2003 movie, where his character set up a kindergarten after finding himself out of work.

But the show was shelved after criticism for Girls And Boys Alone.

A source said: “Bosses felt very uncomfortable, with people saying they were exploiting kids.

“Daddy Day Care had the potential for kids to get out of control, so it was felt the show should be parked.”

A C4 spokesperson said that there was “a postponement in pre-production”.
