Biggins speaks out
Christopher Biggins, the legendary actor and pantomime star, has criticized Celebrity Big Brother, calling it "appalling." He was removed from the show nine years ago for making an unacceptable joke to X Factor's Katie Waissel, which was not aired on television.
Controversial comments and fallout
Biggins found himself in hot water with Big Brother even before the incident that led to his removal. He faced backlash for making controversial remarks about bisexuals during a conversation with Mob Wives star Renee Grazinano. Despite apologizing and highlighting his friendships with members of the Jewish community, his £100k fee was reportedly slashed after the incident.

He also voiced concerns about the current culture of "cancel culture" and the challenges of navigating sensitive topics in today's media environment.
