“Think poor Christopher Biggins is being mistreated in the most appalling way”.

Speaking on “This Morning” on Tuesday (09.08.16), he said: “She was keen [for me to go on “CBB”] and for the record Anthea and I speak to each other every day”.
“I put it down to getting older and having too many friends”.
I apologised to Big Brother and Katie. “I love you and I’m really sorry”, he told the newspaper.
Mr Biggins had told Jewish fellow contestant Katie Waissel, as she waited for the bathroom: “You better be careful or they’ll be putting you in a shower and taking you to a room”.
The “joke” was made earlier this week, but producers decided not to air it, with Biggins stating he believes Channel 5 were “trying to protect him” by not including it on the show.
Well, while I’m sure Biggins yet again meant no offence, and assuming he was correctly quoted of course, to intimate that he could ever “experience the whole scenario of the Jewish annihilation” by simply visiting Auschwitz was possibly ill-advised.
“They then brought it back to their families over here and in America. It’s odd that I had already chose to experience it myself”, he added.
Viewers will watch Biggins have a prophetic conversation with Grant Bovey – who became the first housemate evicted by public vote on Friday – about struggling to control what he says.
‘The worst type I’m afraid to say are the bisexuals. Then came a period where they were respected.
The source then added: “I found the fact that he enjoyed taunting the Germans on the set next door a little harsh to be honest, but everyone seemed to take it in jest”.
He claimed HIV had been spread by bisexuals who had sex with people with the virus overseas “and brought it back to their own families in America and that’s how it became a worldwide disease”.
Biggins left the house immediately, and the housemates were called to the sofa by Big Brother to receive the shock news.
“Tragically, he died a few days later, but what he said resonated with me and that’s how lots of phone calls were made and I ended up on the show”.

In this conversation, the 67-year-old said HIV was a “bisexual disease” after being invented by the Central Intelligence Agency.
