After watching Celebrity Big Brother housemates victimise Bollywood star Shilpa, it seems that India is up in arms. It's been reported that people are taking to the streets burning things whilst chanting "Down with Big Brother!"
As well as this, Channel 4 has reportedly recieved e-mails of "concern" wich are being "investigated" by police, prompting speculation that they are indeed death threats.
I understand that many people are EXTREMELY angry with Jade (rummoured to have said "she makes my skin crawl" about Shilpa), Jo, Danielle and Jack; I also understand and completely agree that they should be made to formally appologise in person to Shilpa. Though I believe they are ignorant and vile individuals I find myself wondering, has everything gone a bit too far?
Surely the worst thing that could happen to these fame hungry people is to be removed from the public eye indefinately, and have all their fans see them for how they are; death threats are a little extreme.
