Davina McCall has been hit with reports by media watchdog Ofcom for using the word "******" on a spin off show Celebrity Big Brother's Big Mouth.
This incident occurred in January, on the same night as the finale for the last series of Celebrity Big Brother.

The evicted housemate Vinnie Jones first used the word when he talked about Davina entering the house in a chicken costume.
Davina responded: "I do not walk like a ******."

Ofcom then received eight complaints about the Hollywood actor's comment, with seven viewers offended by Davina's response.

Ofcom originally did not respond to the complaints and now decided to hold a review by referring the case to its Broadcasting Review Committee.
On Monday it stated: "It was the Committee's view that his (Vinnie's) use of the word '******' was capable of being understood not as merely a passing reference directed towards Ms McCall but also as ridiculing those with a physical or learning difficulty, emphasised by his attempt at imitation."
Whilst channel 4 says "in the heat of the moment during a live programme"
