What's race row?
I get that BB doesn't want loads of complaints to ofcom, but isn't that just part of the course when you're making a reality TV show documenting how complete strangers interaact over a few months? People are going to say stupid things, its not a reflection of Big Brother, they aren't reading scrips. If conor makes a stupid comment, then conor makes a stupid comment, its not Big Brothers fault. They can choose not to show it if they don't think its appropriate. But then, what's the point of the show. We watch BB because of these kinds of things. We want to see the good, the bad and the ugly. If BB keep stepping in and manipulating how the housemates would act naturually, then they'll just alienate their entire audience, because that's not the point of the show. Also, people complain to ofcom because they can, not because its necesarily valid. If I'm in the Mall and I hear some random kid say something inappropriate, I don't run to the mall management and file a formal complaint. It's part of life. Sometimes people say or do stupid things.
