Big Brother axed by TV channel
The British reality TV show celebrity Big Brother which was at the centre of controversy in January this year over the alleged racist bullying of actress Shilpa Shetty, is to be scrapped, media reported on Saturday.
According to agency reports, Channel 4 will turn its back on the reality show, which attracted 54,000 complaints and sparked international outrage over the treatment meted out to Shilpa by her fellow participants, and four other successful programmes as it aims to concentrate on new, high-quality material, the Daily Mail tabloid said.
However, industry insiders believe the decision not to run the celebrity show in 2008 may herald the beginning of the end of Big Brother.
