Big Brother in HUGE controversy... More complaints to Ofcom about religion ignorance and animal cruelty...!!!
 
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.

Nothing will come of it, thats the kind of complaints which are just shrugged away. Pathetic people.

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:

Indierock&roll 25-06-2009 08:40 PM

are they actually serious people need to lighten up

Marzy 25-06-2009 08:44 PM

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.

People need to get a life!!!

HELLIWONTGO 25-06-2009 08:46 PM

PC world used to be just a rubbish computer store now we are living in it!!!

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.

Pathetic complaints. Pathetic people.

*mazedsalv** 25-06-2009 08:51 PM

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.

So you hate Hindus?

Axiom 25-06-2009 09:15 PM

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

GeorgeOrwell 25-06-2009 09:33 PM

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

:thumbs2:

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


Marcus or Siavash to win!!

Political correctness gone mad again.People cannot live their lives wrapped in proverbial cotton wool.

DaniBoi 25-06-2009 10:44 PM

These complaint's don't matter do they? Isn't it only the upheld one's that matter?

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.

:mad:
