Wouldn't put it past the producers as they clearly deem it acceptable to reveal a housemates ejection without showing the full amount of evidence leading to their exclusion. Shambles!

Personally I feel that we should decide who should live in the house. Katie Hopkins had it right in CBB15. People should be voted out. Not censored out. (obviously if physical violence entered the equation then obviously a housemate should definitely be ejected!)

They were my thoughts too, not that the ratings were low but Biggins was dispensable and he was thrown under the metaphorical bus just to keep the program in the headlines.

It looks like we have arrived at a time in history when everyone is a victim and no one can comment on anything with out fear of repercussions, hardly the recipe for stimulating conversation or watching- so a bit of an own goal by CBB.

it was a very soft ousting given the carry on of others in there not a Biggins fan but that was harsh, had he been on a final formal warning I wonder

[joeysteele]

On what they have shown, no I do not think he should be out.

Although I really abhor his views on bisexuality and particularly as to tonight's content on the topic.

[bots]

it was completely justified. Biggins is a nasty knob end

[Firewire]

For his comments - yes.

But others still remain, so it's hard to actually judge if it's fair.

[AProducer'sWetDream]

Yes- especially considering the fact he'd already been warned about what he said to Katie.

Is Biggins now going to be invited onto other shows to give his side of things? This could have seriously negative effects on his career. This would be a travesty at his stage in life. Considering he was such a fan of the show this seems utterly unfair. I hope he still gets his fee but something tells me there will be a clause in his contract that states he won't if sacked.

Agreed, Biggins is in for a rough time in the future, and I feel sorry for the way he's been treated. However, I don't feel too sorry because I'm sure he's pretty wealthy and spending more time at home with his money and his many A-list celeb friends is not going to be too bad for him.

It's hard to say because the guidelines for someone getting ejected have been skewed for a long time, and like Lostie has already said - they have cast people with ignorant views in the past, and have done so because they know the controversy it would cause.

Biggins' ejection is a travesty and his (perhaps unwise) occasional comments pale into insignificance when compared with Bear's violence and intimidating behaviour, yet Bear's the one who stays.

Well, blaming a community of people for a disease that kills entire nations can lead to another Holocaust. A tad different. Bear should be thrown out as well though. What Biggins said is extremely dangerous, and the show obviously had had it with warning him.

80% Think Biggins should not have been removed

[Munchkins]

They should have shown all the comments tbf

[tanussa]

totally unfair that BB should chuck biggins out. when I heard what they had done I thought it was for something major, it ended up being hardly anything at all. a great misjustice

[TheMachine]

Biggins clearly said some other things not aired because it was very bad. Which was the real reason he got removed. Just the bisexual aids thing was more of same.

[Tom4784]

I trust BB's judgement, they always make the right decisions

its ridiculous, and to not show the comments makes it worse. everyone afraid to offend anyone, and over a joke, and the did biggins no favors allowing a rumored transcript to makes the rounds for a day before saying that's not what happened

[Yaki da]

I've been out all night. Can someone tell me what happeneed?

[letmein]

Of course, as he broke the rules. However, others have as well. There should be others out too. They obviously didn't air his first bit because the show was pushing for him to win early on.

[Xanzia]

I cannot imagine why he is there at all. Just his prehistoric-bird like laughing is plenty for me.

[Liam-]

For his comments/'joke' alone, no I don't think he deserved to be thrown out, but the fact that he's obviously had several talkings to about his comments potentially being offensive, I do think it was somewhat justified, however, do I think he should have been thrown out before some other people who have done worse things than him? absolutely not.

The bigger issue is tptb censoring the controversy and only revealing a previous warning had been issued over something else. Had Biggins not made the HIV+AIDS comments then we would be oblivious to the anti semetic joke.

This is my issue with it all.

[Braden]

I think a final warning would have sufficed on this occasion, but then BB said that they'd spoke to him about it before?

It's anoying as viewer that we have to make sense of this mess when they don't show us what happens.
