Default Ofcom reject almost 4,000 complaints regarding BB15 - but will investigate 1 episode.

Ofcom has rejected almost 4,000 complaints regarding Big Brother 2014, including those about Helen Wood’s win – but has launched an investigation in to one episode.

The media regulator today gave an update on the issues raised across the series, which ran between June 5th and August 15th.

Around 3,820 complaints were turned down because they didn’t warrant looking in to – including those concerning the result of the final, in which controversial housemate Helen Wood beat Ashleigh Coyle to be crowned the winner.

A total of 469 viewers wrote in to query the result, with Channel 5 responding by releasing a statement vehemently denying claims that it had been fixed.

While the final was previously thought to be the most complained about episode, the new data reveals it was in fact the edition broadcast on June 16th.

This featured continued so-called “bullying” from housemates including Helen, as well as Marlon Wallen and Ash Harrison’s sexually explicit conversation about female housemates including Kimberly Kisselovich – but the 1,573 complaints it attracted were also scrapped.

Other issues that won’t be examined include the post-nominations row in week one, which prompted 208 complaints over religious offence after Helen said of Danielle McMahon: “She’d better stop swearing or she’ll go to hell. Stop shagging Jesus you *******ing tramp.”

The ‘truth or dare’ row – which saw Helen receive a formal warning for shouting in Matthew Davies’ face – and the clash that erupted after Helen found out about Ashleigh’s plot to nominate Ash have also been cleared.

However, Ofcom has begun investigating the episode broadcast on August 7th for a possible breach of content standards.

This focussed on the argument over the housemates’ pact to split the prize fund bonus, which primarily saw Helen attacking Chris Wright for reneging on the deal.

C5 boss Ben Frow recently defended Big Brother 2014′s ratings performance, after it became the lowest rating series to date on average.

Hopefully nothing comes of it.
