It wasn't an opinion it seems...it was a crass insensitive joke...and from what I can gather it has been 1 of many. Biggins thinks he is above it all... I'm glad he has been caught out.
Spitting in someone's sandwich is disgusting....it's not enough to remove someone IMO...especially if the recipient isn't offended by it.

Pffft aaargggh! Omg.

They like early ejections these days anyway, like it's meant to add to the drama. They can feel feel staged even.

Yip wouldn't surprise me if this was planned, Biggins is clever, would he want to be in there until Sept. I was surprised at the bisexual comments and now this, it could be staged

Depends what he said and how it's handled when he comes out, he is nearly 70 a big pay out would suit him, there is no bonus for winning

It was a joke about the Holocaust tho. Like making light of the deaths of millions of people is surely worse than spitting in someone's food (especially when Bear welcomed her spitting in his mouth like 24 hours later)? I guess in my opinion anyway.

So people dislike him for the bisexuality comments but love the Nazi cow from CBB16.
Yes, people know to take offence only when it's relevant to them.

Alot of people say offensive things and have bigoted opinions, and you see that on forums at times of course. But some people are apparently considered fair game, which is strange.

Daily Star removed the Nazi stuff from their headline.

It now looks like this:

Will find out tomorrow night

Yikes, seems like a joke in poor taste at the wrong time, with the wrong person, will have to wait and see what really happened.

You're not entitled to have any opinion on things like sexuality IMO. There shouldn't need to be an opinion there. It is what it is. It shouldn't have to be debated. Bisexuals are just biseuxals. We don't need people sticking their two cents in on that.

Why not?

Because it's not something you need an opinion on. It is what it is. It's not something that needs debating.

'things like sexuality'. Things that can't be helped and are natural and don't require a debate.

Can we have views on pederasty, paedophilia and necrophilia then?

How do you intend to stop people from having such views? Do you want the state to arrest people for having them?

You can have views on the people who ACT on those type of things as they're not consensual and cause harm to people/animals. Not people who naturally feel that way as it's not their fault and choose not to act on their impulses.

this really,

I mean everyone is entitled to their own opinion but not in an offensive/ignorant way, some are actually so offensive and people have the right to feel that way so people downplaying it making out people can't be offended by saying "everyone has to respect their opinion because everyone is entitled to it" needs to stop.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion ....it's when and where and to whom you express those opinions.
You don't go to a funeral and start telling a bereaved wife that her husband was a bastard and had numerous affairs do you? There's a time and a place to express your opinions and housemates are warned not to offend race or creed etc...
We judge people on their opinions...and Biggins has ultimately ruined his reputation as the 'likeable funny man'.

Oh dear, this is sounding more and more like the Big Brother of George Orwell's 1984. Not entitled to have an opinion on sexuality? Everyone everywhere is entitled to have an opinion on anything.
