UK Big Brother contestant removed after making Holocaust joke

Fans of the show had absolutely no idea that the disgraced star was warned last week for telling Katie Waissel: “You better be careful or they’ll be putting you in a shower and taking you to a room”.

The 67-year-old sparked outrage on the show with his shocking views on bisexuals, AIDS, and even an anti-Semitic joke he made to Jewish housemate Katie Waissel.

Nazi shame “I love Katie”.

Asked who would replace the entertainer is that role, Bovey replied: “I don’t think James will because, he can’t hold court the way that Biggins did”.

Explaining his decision, he said: “We’re going for five days in October. You’re stuck in there and you don’t know what’s going to happen next”.

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.

After receiving Biggins’ statement from Big Brother’s Bit On The Side host, Rylan Clark-Neal, Ruth read out his message. I know it’s going to be ghastly.

He said in a conversation with Aubrey O’Day and Renee Graziano: “Gays had been really badly treated, then suddenly they became respected”.

On Saturday, it was revealed that he had also told housemates that he believes AIDS “was a bisexual disease”, which partly led to his removal from the house.

He remarked how bisexuals should just admit they are gay and then stunned the rest of the house by suggesting that the AIDS epidemic was actually the fault of bisexuals.

He called it a “killer disease” adding that he thought it “was a bisexual disease, if I’m honest”.

Jonathan – who is also a long-time friend of Christopher – told us: “I can confirm that he would never intentionally cause offence”.

Celebrity Big Brother will air on Channel 5 at 10.30pm.

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”.

He continued, ‘That was the first time I had ever been taken into the diary room to be given a formal warning.
