Big Brother gave that warning last series when Marco was swinging from some lights so it should be there.
Unless C5 has changed the rules, it's not. The rules don't say anything is definitely punished, let alone severely.

The rules used to be up on the Web. I don't think they still are. But here's a copy from a while back: http://bigblagger.co.uk/the-rules-2/

The section on Unacceptable Behaviour says:

Big Brother will intervene and take appropriate action if Housemates behave in a way that Big Brother considers is unacceptable. The form of intervention by Big Brother and any punishment will depend on the seriousness of the incident in question.

Unacceptable behaviour includes:

* Violent behaviour towards any other Housemate (including threats of violence and actual violence) or other violent acts.
* Behaving in a way that could cause serious offence to either their fellow Housemates or members of the viewing public (including serious offence based on the grounds of age, disability, gender, race, religion, beliefs or sexual orientation).
* Serious harassment or abusive behaviour directed at another Housemate including bullying.
* Actions likely to endanger the safety of Housemates.
* Saying anything which is calculated to bring Big Brother, the producers or the broadcaster into disrepute.
* Damaging the House or its contents.
* Making allegations either recklessly or that they know to be false or libellous.
* Any other matter which Big Brother considers serious enough to warrant an intervention and punishment.

Channel 5 well and truly threw the rulebook out with the bathwater then. This series has broken virtuality every clause of the above. A stricter BB is needed and order brought to the house, it's total chaos.
