RACISM
• Ofcom's severe criticism of Channel 4 singled out three occasions the broadcaster failed to "handle the situation appropriately and contextualise".
• The first was when Goody referred to Shetty as "Shilpa Poppadom"; the second was Lloyd saying she wished the Indian actress would "f*** off home"; the third was derogatory comments about Indian eating habits, poverty, starvation, illness and being stick-thin during an argument over Shetty producing a dish of under-cooked chicken for housemates to eat.

SUMMARY• Big Brother has run on British TV since 2000• It has generated vast amounts of money for both Channel 4 (the
broadcaster) and Endemol (who own the format)• It relies on state of the art cameras and hundreds of staff• It has been a talking point for nearly 10 years• At its peak, over a 100,000 people a year auditioned to go on the show• Viewing figures peaked at around 10 million and now have slumped to
around 2m• 2010 sees the end of Big Brother on Channel 4 but there is always a
possibility it could reappear on another channel
