Channel 5 Pulls Repeats of Big Brother

Channel 5 has pulled the daytime repeats of tonight’s Big Brother highlights show as a result of its ‘explosive’ nature which is unacceptable pre watershed. It is believed that the highlights show was pulled following Channel 5's schedule following a warning from OFCOM due to Channel 5 airing an episode of Celebrity Big Brother, which contained sexually explicit content, this January.

Instead of the usual repeats tomorrow afternoon at 12.15pm on Channel 5, and 2.00pm on 5* viewers will have to catch up on Big Brother via Demand 5.
“Tonight’s 10pm episode of Big Brother on is so explosive, for the first time ever, Channel 5 has been forced to remove tomorrow’s daytime repeats as the content has been deemed inappropriate for daytime audiences.'' Channel 5 spokesperson

However, fans will also be able to catch it on C5′s recently-launched timeshift service Channel 5+24 tomorrow at 10.00pm. An argument between Danielle and Helen is believed to be the reason for the episodes pulling. Big Brother continues nightly on Channel 5.
