Celebrity Big Brother under investigation as Ofcom receives 25,257 complaints over Roxanne Pallett's abuse scandal

Ofcom will be looking into the matter to determine if Channel 5 broadcast  "appropriate information" that may or may not have helped "in avoiding or minimizing offense".   
PUBLISHED SEP 24, 2018

Television watchdog Ofcom has announced that it is launching an official investigation into Channel 5 over the tackling of certain controversial broadcast content. For the uninitiated, the episodes in question pertain to that of two reality shows - 'Celebrity Big Brother' and 'Loose Women' - which drew quite a bit of ire from fans in the past few months following a very public meltdown.

"We are investigating whether this programme broke our rules on offensive content. We are investigating whether this programme fell short of generally accepted standards," an Ofcom spokeswoman was quoted as saying by Daily Mail. According to the website, the UK-based regulatory body will be looking into the matter to determine if Channel 5 broadcast  "appropriate information" that may or may not have helped "in avoiding or minimizing offense".
