Bit harsh!
As expected, Celebrity Big Brother is already causing drama. It’s only a few days in and it’s already spawned complaints on social media.
The complaints were over the Scottish actor James Cosmo being “edited out”. As part of a task, some of the housemates had to choose who they would like to “edit out”. “Edited out” means that the chosen celebrity must remain in a seat away from the group and only wear beige clothes.
The group first picked former US X Factor contestant Stacey Francis which didn’t seem to bother viewers but when they chose James it really struck a cord.
The housemates reason for doing so was because he hadn’t interacted with all the housemates within the first few hours and they figured that he wouldn’t mind being isolated.
Viewers were less than impressed saying that it was mean and taking advantage of the actor.
James Cosmo does not belong in #CBB feel like they are going to take advantage of him, makes me so sad 😭

God, James Cosmo just seems so lovely. They're going to hurt him aren't they? I'm going to cry, aren't I?#cbb
