BIG Brother has landed in triple trouble with TV watchdogs, Hindus and vegetarians.

Footage of the gang having to live like the Tudors for a Big Brother task has sparked multiple complaints to Ofcom.

Hindus are outraged that Marcus tried to throw a raw pig’s trotter at Sree.

And the show was attacked by veggies for clips of Marcus and Lisa chopping up a chicken, rabbits and a boar.

Its the people that keep making stupid complaints that will end up ruining BB, Marcus chased after more than just Sree with the pigs foot, and the cuttin up meat etc can be seen on lots of channels on tv just think of Hugh Fearnley Whittingstall:shrug:

For crying out loud. How was Marcus to know. We know little about their religion and they know little about religions other than hindu.

What about when Sree handled the bacon, what;s the difference between a pigs trotter and a slice of bacon.

As for the stupid vegetarians they are not even worth discussing. They are always trying to jump on the bandwagon. Animals get chopped up in factorys all the time.

Sree is a hypocrite. Did't he recently touch beacon, from pigs, with his hands to make sandwiches. So the Hindu group should look at this also tell Sree off.

People are pathetic, next time they will complain about Charlie growing stubble and saying its "unhealthy" or saying that Freddie has old fasioned glasses :rolleyes:

But controversy (good or bad)= Higher ratings.

Apart from LF and new HMs, i think controversy is the last final thing that could boost ratings.

Oh for Pete's sake! I'm a vegan, and I saw nothing wrong with the Tudor task (apart from being grossed out by it), it's no different than someone preparing a chicken they've bought from the supermarket, or cooking a leg of ham. And Macrus stopped when Sree told him too, it's not like he completely ignored his religious protests and carries on anyway.

He said "veggies" which would refer to "vegetarians" not Hindus! But they are petty to complain about this.

Probably Mediawatch again. And pork isn't forbidden to Hindus at all. Most Hindus are vegetarian, though.

That's completely right!!! I'd forgotten about Sree and his raw bacon butties!!!


Marcus or Siavash to win!!

It's not. It's an organisation that doesn't like this kind of thing being on television trying to get it taken off the air by launching a protracted campaign of complaining to Ofcom about anything and everything that could be perceived as negative. They've been doing it for years. They've usually not even watched it.

Why do people bother to complain, do they think they are better than the rest of us?
If something offends them turn over or grow up and get a life!

If anyone watches the footage back they will see that the one person Marcus didn't go near was Sree. Some people just see what they want to see.

THERE IS ALWAYS THE OFF BUTTON.

When Sree said that he couldn't touch it, people left him alone and didn't question him at all. Seems fair enough and no belief was disrespected. What's the fuss about really?

I think there are a large amount of people that sit by the phone just waiting to ring up and moan about anything
I don't want to live in a sanitised, PC world with do gooders telling me what's right and wrong or how to think!!!

Very good point, although I think many people would love to see BB taken off the air, killjoys they are called!!!:thumbs:

It seems like a fuss about nothing, really. I doubt any of these complaints will go anywhere.

I was particularly amused by the pig's trotter complaint, though.

Firstly, Marcus is a moron, so you can't actually expect him to have a clue about anything. Being the village idiot was rather apt.
And I'm a vegetarian myself. I was not offended by the housemates making their dinner from scratch; it's exactly what happens normally, just the middle man is removed.
Put it down to miserable busy-bodies.
