I took this quote from the article about Danielle Lloyd's upcoming £1,000,000 million (auto)/biography?
http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=57040
This quote is about the shortened version of (Pakistani) which apparently was said in the Celebrity Big Brother house in January 2007, but, the editors who work for Endemol bird-whistled it out.
It has been said that Jack Tweed said the (C) word, instead of the (P) word. As shown below:- http://comment.independent.co.uk/columnists_a_l/dominic_lawson/article2165427.ece
So what is Danielle Lloyd on about?
I have seen that critisism has been quite small regarding Jade Goody's boyfriend, "Jack Tweed".
He seemed to do very little wrong in the CBB house and also stayed out of the arguments and tried to fit in too.
He did what he could and fit in quite well and was pretty much liked too.
_____________________________________________
What is possible, is, that Jack Tweed or whoever else in the CBB house that might have said that, didn't understand that it was so serious.
Many do assume, that it is just a lazy way of saying the word, "Pakistani" and did not understand that it may offend and is recognized as a "swear word", to certain people who find it, as offensive as the (F) or (C) word.
If you did a Google search, on the (P) word, it would open up a can of worms which would make many people think that it is not a serious offensive word.
Did "Jack" or the other suspected housemate not realise.
I have also noticed that there are many Mobile Phone wallpaper & screensaver websites out there and I have also seen this (P) word recently on a Mobile Phone wallpaper and it was from a school kid who was sending it to other friends who thought the comments that went with the (P) word were funny.
They were not funny and I shal'nt elaborate either.
____________________________________________
If Endemol editors did edit this (P) word out, then, is that a correct judgement call?
If Jack or another housemate said it, should they face more questioning?
If a housemate said this (P) word and claimed that they weren't aware that it was offensive to a massive degree?
If Danielle Lloyd pointed the finger at a certain housemate, would it be advisable for the named housemate to deny it, rather than admit it?
As Shilpa Shetty was obviously an Indian Bollywood film actress and the (P) word was mentioned, then, is it like calling a Scottish person, "Welsh?"

In 2007,(The 21st century), much of what is acceptable today, certainly, wouldn't be acceptable 50 or more years ago. This is very true.
But,
Even though Racism, is certainly not accepted today!
Looking at TV, Film, Music, Newspapers, The Web, etc....
It is making things very difficult to deal with in the courts today. Hence, the CPS ruling that CBB Jan's furore was over offensive words & comments only.
