That is how I see it. They were not told exactly why he left, that does not mean she was not upset by what he said.

We've purposely been kept in the dark about this. The 'joke' (not comment) was apparently made. We have heard that Katie had to go to the diary room and seek treatment, that she was in tears. Yet on the this morning show she 1. knew no reason why Biggins would be ejected (suggesting that she didnt think it was a big deal), and 2. The joke wasn't on her mind at all in her recollection of the issue and even felt concerned about what had happened to Biggins. If someone insulted you and brought you to tears you'd not bring that up even slightly when that persons name was mentioned?
It seems to me that Biggins offended some bisexuals on the production team and they used a distasteful joke as an excuse to get rid of him no questions asked. The irony of the situation is amazing.
For BB and now sadly Katie to use the holocaust in a publicity way is highly offense.
Its sad how this world is becoming. If you're a member of a certain group you are bullied to behaving in a certain way, and if you don't then you are partically responsible for all the negative stuff that group gets.
Whatever happened to people having opinions and being challenged about them? Why did BB 'cover-up' this incident, yet 2 days later booted him? Did Biggins say another bisexual comment and it suddenly was too much?
It seems if you have an opinion and it offends anyone at all then you are likely for the boot. Of course if your opinion happens to be the current one in favour then you'll be pushed forward. What happened to being impartial and letting things play out as it happens!?
BB has turned in to a control freak, and sadly this incident shows again how it's mishandled the situation. They should stop trying to cover things up and make them public. Let the public decide if Biggins deserves to be booted out or not.
Sadly BB is going downhill.. I'll be surprised if it lasts another couple of seasons.”

A 'politically correct' control freak too. And isn't this reflecting our society, micro-managed and cutting out any dissenters? Debate completely stifled.

Since hate crimes against Jews in the UK are up 93% it's no surprise to see such views as I have read on this thread. 93% of which are just hateful and ignorant.
Biggins is a hateful, ignorant and stupid fool. He outed his nasty self within minutes of entering the house. He was removed for his comments about AIDS, gays, bisexuals and the anti Semitic "joke" which was not just off colour and not just tasteless, it was hateful and disgusting. People who excuse such things in the way they have on this thread are the PROBLEM, they certainly aren't the solution. Attack the victim and praise the abuser...some of you must be so proud.

I tend not to believe the media with their continuous scare-mongering.
Why don't you climb down off that high horse? It's a forum, for debate. Thus far, although I can see where it's going on here too. Everyone has their own opinions and should be allowed to voice them, thus far.

I doubt Biggins will recover his "career" after this.”

im so confused as well and agree with you
...and it gets deeper..
I was going to post the youtube video of the This Morning interview to show how Katie reacted and what she said. But interestingly that part has been edited out of the interview! Of a 6 minute 32 second video only that question was taken out.
This is the official This Morning youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFGQ6-aU74w
So why was the question edited out?
PS.
I found another video someone uploaded of the edited out question. Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7EqvCs0AGM
