The OFCOM brigade are back out in force, this time over Jason
Quote:
Ofcom has announced that it will launch an investigation after receiving viewer complaints about Dancing On Ice judge Jason Gardiner.
A small number of fans contacted the broadcasting watchdog after Gardiner compared Roxanne Pallett to a "Cabbage Patch doll" and Ellery Hanley to "Mr. Potato Head" on last weekend's live show.
"We have received a handful of complaints following last Sunday's show and we will investigate them," an Ofcom spokesman told the Daily Star.
A Dancing On Ice spokesperson said: "During the Dancing On Ice '80s special on Sunday, Jason Gardiner gave feedback to a number of the celebrities. In his critique of Roxanne and Ellery, Jason compared them to particular toy characters.
"This was not meant offensively and was intended to be in the spirit of the themed show."
Gardiner recently complained that the contestants are taking his behaviour too seriously, insisting that his comments are intended to be "fun".
