Channel 4 to launch review of Big Brother

CHANNEL 4 last night announced it was launching a review into the Big Brother programme following the race row which has engulfed the show.

The channel’s chairman Luke Johnson said Celebrity Big Brother would remain on air until its completion next week, but Channel 4 had commissioned a review of the “editorial and compliance processes” which support it.

Jade Goody was evicted from the Big Brother house in a public vote on Friday after days of controversy about her behaviour towards Shilpa. The racism sparked international fury.
