I don't think Liam should be kicked out, he was just asking if it was offensive or not, I'm sure that if Emily was asking Charley whether the n word was offensive or not instead of actually using it to refer to Charley then she probably wouldn't have been kicked out neither.

But I am surprised that nothing was done about it, a spokeswoman said that Big Brother (or Channel 4, I forget) thought that the n word was unacceptable to use under any circumstances, no matter what the context. So I am surprised that a homophobic term was treated differently. But don't get me wrong, I don't think Liam should be chucked out. Well, I DO think he should be chucked out because he's a terrible housemate but not for asking if that word was offensive.
