I'm really surprised at Biggins . He's been in the media spotlight long enough to know there are certain subjects that are best left alone, especially when your every word and gesture are recorded and broadcast to the world .

People that go into BB though never seem to learn . Someone was removed also last year and I think the year before for saying something inappropriate .
But has Biggins ever been on a show where every word and action is monitored 24/7............we have heard so many times how HMs can forget about the cameras.

I wonder if ITV will want him stripped of his 'King of the Jungle' status.

' Christopher Biggins was reportedly removed from the Celebrity Big Brother house after making an antisemitic joke.

Producers allegedly decided to terminate his contract following a quip about Nazi concentration camps'



for someone who is used to t.v. , why on earth did he think he could say thing like that on national t.v. and think you can get away with it , deluded man
I think we would need to hear the joke to know if ether he or it was truly anti semetic and if he thought he was getting away with something, there are dark subject jokes and several Jewish comedians have told holocaust humour , so one would have to hear it to know whether he crossed the line and if a simple apology would have sufficed if someone was offended.

Biggins: Well, look, that might be part of it, but I heard from a scientist that black people have brains that are more likely to commit crimes.

Aubrey: That's not true, they shoot black folks for nothing, I'm telling you.
Biggins: I just think that some of them are acting suspicously and maybe if you are a black man you shouldn't chance your luck like that, you know? You have to show respect to the cops, and statistically black people commit more crimes! I'm sorry, that's just a fact.

We'll never know what he said as 'Big Brother does not tolerate offensive language capable of causing widespread offence'.

All recordings are probably being burnt by channel 5 as we speak.
Even if it isn't aired they should at least provide the footage on the website for those that want to know.

Still everyone knows what is acceptable/not to say, especially when you'd be conscious of it on tv.

I've always found him bitchy and superior he just gets away with it because he follows it with a fake ass pantomime laugh.

Same, and angry too behind the facade he puts on. No issue with him being an admirer of the Iron lady though.

But that may cause offence to some people.

I'm being sarcastic of course. Obviously we'll get to find out. That's what reality TV is all about - showing people the event that was so offensive that they couldn't show it.

And you heard him say that ? Katie Wassell has stated she did not know why he was removed so he obviously did not say what the fake transcript said he did on that occasion

Joan Rivers , Sarah Silverman , Larry David in Curb your Enthusiasm wrote a whole episode which had a holocaust survivor and a tv reality show contestant arguing about who had faced the bigger challenge ( in a funny way not nasty) .

In the movie "Neighbours 2" Seth Rogan jokes about a pregnant jewish woman saying, "Ohh look, another little jew in the oven." So, yeah...
