To visit Auschwitz
 
Quote:

It's been a tumultuous few days for Biggins since his ejection from the Celebrity Big Brother house, after making a series of controversial comments.

But now, speaking to The Sun, Biggins has said he plans to visit Auschwitz, in the Polish city of Krakow, later this year.

"I am going there. It will be my first time. I know it's going to be horrible. I know it's going to be ghastly. I know it's going to be emotional," Biggins said.

"Before I went into the house, my partner Neil and I were talking about it because we just feel the whole scenario of the Jewish annihilation is so horrific that we wanted to experience it for ourselves.

"We're going for five days in October. I'm really looking forward to it. Especially now after this incident.

Biggins also revealed that he, and some of his fellow housemates, all feared for their safety in the house.

Bear smashed a mirror by throwing a mug in rage following an argument earlier this week – and, unsurprisingly, it caused tension within the house.

Biggins explained: "The night after Bear went crazy and smashed the glass, people were upset. Bear went mad.

"I felt sorry for the cameraman behind it because the glass could have shattered on him.

"There's knifes and cutlery."

He revealed that Frankie Grande felt especially fearful and the dancer came to him and cried.

"He said that in America he can't be as vocal or outrageous as he would like because the fear is what happened in Orlando in the gay bar where that man shot all those gay people.

"He said he fears going out in America in glitter and outrageous clothes.

"But then he said: 'I'm frightened in here now after what happened last night.'

Between his unusual cocktail mixing, breaking out of jail and blowing up at his housemates after that nomination twist, Bear doesn't look like he's calming down anytime soon...

Bear was nominated for eternal nominations earlier this week, but see who else has been nominated tonight (7 august).

ohmigod. This can't be real. He's really going that far to prove himself...literally.

user104658 07-08-2016 09:07 PM

So he's using the literal site of some of the most horrific crimes in history as a gimmick / prop to improve his own image and "prove something"? ... ... ... Seriously misjudged, in my opinion.

GiRTh 07-08-2016 09:08 PM

WHy? He said what he said, he cant un say it why is he doing this?

He's using a visit to Auschwitz to say "Hey look everyone! See! Biggins LOVES Jews!"

It's pretty foul.

Daffodil 07-08-2016 09:12 PM

The poor man is taking it badly. I hope he is ok.

Firewire 07-08-2016 09:12 PM

It makes the whole situation worse, instead of just apologising and saying that you will learn from your mistakes to grow a person he has to go the extra (thousand) miles and actually travel to a REAL concentration camp as an attempt to protect his image?

jaxie 07-08-2016 09:13 PM

If he is going to Auschwitz and takes the Sun or whoever with him for the photo opportunity then this is in incredibly bad taste.

Obviously, but why bother? If he's that desperate to be loved then he shouldn't talk sh*t on a TV programme.

This is painful, it makes the whole reasons for him visiting seem forced on and fake which isn't appropriate for a place like this

Jordan. 07-08-2016 09:14 PM

doing the most, he should just lay low for a while and stop with these stories in the press.

Jordan. 07-08-2016 09:16 PM

Has he yet said anything about the biphobic comments? I've only seen him defend the anti semitic joke he made

BENDERBOY 07-08-2016 09:16 PM

Disgusting human being,

Yup, he must be insane if he thinks this is going to do him any good. If the man wants to make some kind of visit there do it privately, don't make a media circus out of it.

bots 07-08-2016 09:17 PM

For me its pretty telling how nasty he must have been to Katie. For him to focus in on something that wasn't even shown on the program (because it was beyond the bounds of acceptable broadcast) he must be crapping the whole story comes out.

Mullens123 07-08-2016 09:18 PM

I want the black neighbours to go with him and Katie to guest star during his travels

BB247 07-08-2016 09:19 PM

Auschwitz this whole saga goes from bad to worse.
He said sorry and I believe it was scincre he never meant to offend it was just a crass joke.

If this is his agents idea of damage limitation then he's a **** agent!

He'll be off to Africa the following week to show that he loves everyone there as much as his black neighbours.

This!

This isn't the right way to go about it.

ThriceShy 07-08-2016 09:35 PM

Let's hope when he gets there that he doesn't notice the 1.5million drop on the railway plaque.

Cal. 07-08-2016 09:36 PM

Welp. Jade Goody could have used this kind of damage control.

Well she did end up travelling all the way to India to appear on their version of BB, but we all know how that turned out :worry:
