Everything's so PC and the slightest thing turns into national uproar.

Bloody Ofcom Brigade has ruined Big Brother.

Jeremy and Ken shouldn't have been removed and let Ched Evans play football again. Wish we were more like Australia.

Peace.✌️✌️✌️

Australia? Where multiple nationwide retailers removed Grand Theft Auto from shelves because of somebody's petition?

True. But over there they take day to day life less seriously and can have a laugh. Here there's public meltdown over anything and everything. Just chill out people.

Channel 5 is becoming ridiculous. They removed Jim Davidson's bit from the Chas and Dave 1983 Xmas special they showed this Christmas too!

I would be more impressed if they had gone the whole hog and removed the Chas & Dave programme altogether!

Jeremy and Ken's removals have nothing to do with "the Ofcom brigade".

Jeremy was removed before we even knew anything had happened, and Ken was given a formal warning first. He's evidently refused to heed the warning.

Not just BB, but most things pale into insignificance when tragedies like that occur.

But what's happened to freedom of speech? Everything's so censored nowadays at the risk of upsetting a few folk.

Jeremy and Ken should've remained in the House and faced their actions once they were evicted.

I agree with the title but not the suggested reason for why I should hate it.

i love when people say 'political correctness' as a way of complaining that they aren't allowed to say racist/sexist/homophobic/etc things. instead of complaining about people getting offended over offensive things, how about you fix yourself.

If the UK ever gets invaded by Aliens, we will be screwed as half of the population will find guns offensive and the other half will think its racist to kill Aliens.

This show is Mary Whitehouse's wet dream.
There is a certain section of the viewing audience that get off on being offended and taking to their keyboards to tell everyone how vile it is.
Whilst eagerly awaiting the next minor infraction of what they consider to be their moral values on that specific day so they can start the whole process all over again.

I don't get how people can see abusive behavior and turn it into entertainment. Many times, they say 25% of the population have been a victim of violence and attitudes like these explain why they are allowed to continue.

If a person is violated, does it make the violation less serious because you could not laugh?

You have a young woman of 21 being groped by a 34 yr old and a 71 yr old man tell her to shut up because that could get her work!

You have a 71 yr old man use racist language in words AND context on a 60+ yr old man and when he's called out, in a calm manner, rather than apologize he tries to deflect by using Spanish excuse. And then goes on to talk about pickaninnies.

Would some people still find it funny is the same were being said about murdered Jews?

I love lewd jokes and dark humor, but there are limits.
