Dodgy clips exist ... trouble! By EMMA COX Deputy TV Editor February 01, 2007 A BIG Brother executive claimed Shilpa Shetty was called a “Paki” on the show in a note that reads: “Some dodgy clips DO exist. We are *******ed.” The evidence — seen by The Sun — was scrawled on the back of a production running order for spin-off show Big Brother’s Little Brother. An anonymous tipster went to cops with it and was quizzed for 90 minutes. It alleges that Celebrity BB winner Shilpa was called a “*******ing Paki” in one incident. And it tells how a song was sung, with the words: “This house used to be happy, until that *******ing —”. Jade Goody was said to be present when it was sung. Hertfordshire Police have asked show producers to hand over the clips — but they have refused, denying they exist. A source said: “Big Brother staff write notes to each other on running orders and suchlike when in the galleries or editing suites, or anywhere they have to keep quiet. “So it’s an important document and one the police are taking very seriously. If those clips do exist the programme makers would have hell to pay.” The note was scribbled on the back of a production schedule for the episode of BBLB — hosted by Dermot O’Leary — on Sunday, January 21. It was discovered ripped up at the Elstree studios, Herts. The identity of the author is not known — but it is believed to be a senior employee at Big Brother makers Endemol. A court order could force Endemol to hand over all footage. But that is unlikely to happen until police have interviewed all contestants. Jade, Danielle Lloyd and Jo O’Meara were accused during the show of making racist comments against Indian actress Shilpa. Last night Hertfordshire Police confirmed they had been handed “some further information which we will be looking into as part of our ongoing investigation”. A Channel 4 spokeswoman said: “The producers have checked the editorial log and assured us there is no evidence of the word alleged in the note ever being used by any of the housemates.” ![]() |
