Essex parish councillor George Gilbert was evicted from the Big Brother house for “repeated use of unacceptable language and behaviour” after receiving four warnings in 10 days. The 23-year-old was seen being reprimanded by Big Brother for mocking fellow housemate Sam using “limp wrists” during a game which asked him to name something he didn’t like about each housemate. ITV did not air the comments which led to his removal because they were contrary to broadcast standards, it said, but it was later revealed the comments were antisemitic. Speaking exclusively to the Times, Mr Gilbert said: “The comments alone do come across unacceptable, but that’s without context. Responding to Mr Gilbert’s comments and his YouTube video, a spokesperson for CST said: “Modern antisemitism is often deeply rooted in centuries-old tropes and myths about Jews.
