Emily didn't quote anyone. She said to Charlie "push it out, my ni**er".

BB has 24 hours of House activities to create the 40 odd minutes of HLs . they chose to broadcast THAT solely so that they could create another RACISM IN BB headline in today's Sunday Scum.

Carol McGiffin gets N-word warning
MOUTHY TV star Carol McGiffin plunged Celebrity Big Brother into a race row just 24 hours after entering the house. ....

Correct!..good call, but...hardly the storm they hoped for though Fingers!

[muchadoaboutnothing]

Carol likes her drink (a bit like the other loose woman - Denese) and unfortunately can't control her emotions or actions. If Carol keeps drinking like it is tap water it will be the ruin of her (having said that Denese did go on to win so the drinking didn't do her any harm).

Sunday Scum Headline:
Carol McGiffin gets N-word warning

MOUTHY TV star Carol McGiffin plunged Celebrity Big Brother into a race row just 24 hours after entering the house.

"Plunged into a race row"!!!

[CaudleHalbard]

Utterly ridiculous. It is one thing quoting someone and another actually using an offensive word to a person or about a person.

Anyway BB should give itself a formal warning for quoting Carol!!

[CaudleHalbard]

Hardly a 'race row' when it was just one housemate being told off by BB in the privacy of the diary room!

[fingers]

Hardly "Plunged into a Race Row" was it?

[Samm]

I blame it on *******king Ofcom

[Northern Monkey]

All they had to do was 'bleep' Carol out and crack on with the show and nobody would have batted an eyelid.BB made a huge issue of it and even said the dreaded word uncensored.BB wanted this for ratings.

Makes a lot of sense there, eyeball

I have my moments

[tricky]

I thought Carol was wrong to 'spill the beans' on Ron. I would have thought the idea of him being on the show is to see if he has learnt and changed.
Actually using such filthy language in Carol's context is nothing compared to actual racism. Clever racists never use the 'N' word.

[joeysteele]

In my view, she was muck stirring, she had no reason to go into detail as to why and how things turned so badly for Ron. all she had to say was there was some fuss over a comment he made about someone else.

It is for Ron to address the issue only if he wants to, not for Carol to get all pious and start relaying to others the story behind it all.
A proper busybody she is and on an aptly named programme as to 'loose women' becasue she can be very loose with her tongue about other people.

She maybe needed pulling up as to the conversation but I still do agree that the warning was out of order though and to a point hypocritical as to BB too.

Totally agree.

It's a sensitive issue and Carol went steaming in with her gossip boots on.

I can't imagine Ron stirring, taking someone aside and dishing the dirt on something unpleasant from Carol's past like that.

I had no idea she has already quit the loose women show
She became a household name thanks to her daily appearances on Loose Women, but after more than a decade on the panel Carol McGiffin has quit the show for pastures new.


The 53-year-old TV personality was the longest serving member on the panel, but admits she won’t be returning to the long-running ITV show when the new series kicks off later this year.


Speaking to the Sunday People, she said: ‘I’m sure some of you will rejoice but those who might not be so pleased deserve some sort of explanation

Yeah, all a bit weird, they always have a send off when one of them leave yet not one mention of it when they broke up for the summer holidays.

[Shaun]

I'm just watching it now - more amazed that the Big Brother voice actually said it whilst condemning her for doing the same. Staggering cluelessness.

[reece(:]

Good god, this "controversy" is even worse than the Jemima one, it's really pathetic. "Race row"? ... god they'll do anything for a story and I don't even like Carol either.
