Celeb Big Brother in racism probe
The TV watchdog has received 200 complaints from viewers that Bollywood star Shilpa is the victim of racist bullying.
Ofcom has reported the new troubles following the show's plummeting ratings and the walkout of three celebrities.
The Indian beauty was branded a "dog" by disgraced former Miss Great Britain Danielle who blamed Shilpa for Carole's eviction on Friday night.
Both Danielle and Jo have imitated Shilpa's Indian accent, while Jade's evicted mum Jackiey dubbed her "The Indian" and refused to learn how to pronounce her name.
Some fans have been upset by what they believe is racist behaviour and have been voicing their concerns on internet forums.
Housemate Jermaine thinks that Jade's gang - including JO and Danielle - are jealous of her and Ian told him he thought the house was turning into Lord of the Flies.
A Big Brother insider said if producers thought there was abuse, bullying or racism going on, they would take a very serious view. But anti-racism campaigners are demanding BB bosses take action if it is proved Shilpa has been the victim of racially-motivated abuse.
