It says at the end, the matter is closed and they're in favour of the BBC with the episode being "sufficiently" edited.

But, really, a single complaint? That's ridiculous. lol

Ridiculous, since ofcom now step forward to even one single complaint, people could purposely complain to ofcom just to make site headlines. It was a humorous slapstick scene, it's not nearly as violent as the murders eastenders has.

This is a bloody joke. That was quite possibly the LEAST violent and most comical fight scene EE has ever done, yet they get a complaint. Seriously, I hate this smiley, but this really does deserve a

I suppose the person who complained would have literally sh!t themselves during the football hooligan raid in of 2007. I fail to understand the logic and I hope that this ridiculous person never watches EE again, for the sake of the rest of us.

I weep for humanity.

It was pure slapstick! Tom and Jerry is more violent!

I see where they're coming from, I had no problem watching Heather get her head bashed in with a picture frame but a nipple cripple is just disgraceful!

Surely Ofcom should acknowledge that only one complaint means that there's nothing wrong with the episode and that this person's the most easily-offended person on the planet, and would probably get offended because Kat's dress is "too red" too? I can understand that they have to take "every case seriously" but in some cases it's more of a joke than anything else.

One compliant could easily be a troll or someone taking the piss

Agreed, way too much of an overreaction on their part. I mean really! Next there'll be a complaint about Shirleys bra being shown.

Who's to say they haven't?

See, the fact that they now know that their complaint is being taken seriously will make this little person feel superior. They'll think "well, if I don't like it I'll complain and get them to stop, sod everyone else". They will therefore complain over everything they dislike.

If they were going to complain that the episode was dire then fair enough, I could get their point but the "violence" was quite tame

I thought it was brilliantly executed. I guess humour bypassed the person who complained.

It was bloody funny, not violent, they had much worse, they don't listen to 1000 complaints but they listen to only 1.

How are we meant to have pub hostages and riots if one "Granny" - probably - complains!

Hollyoaks Silas is more violent than anything put together!

It is someone who is over protective and has a broom up there ass!
