Um, so it was always about contextualizing what was happening and taking sort of, you know, legal guidelines about what was fit for broadcast.

If it could be contextualised within the broadcasting code and it was truthful and necessary, then it would go into the show.

I think you could make that case.

I mean, I think, obviously, you know, reflecting back on it, there were interventions that, you know...

could and should be made.

But yeah, again, it was being streamed live.

That Oxford Cube argument, people were watching that.

I mean, it wasn't all broadcast because it happened in the daytime, but people were aware that that had happened because it was on streaming.

And also you have to be fair to Shilpa.

You have to give the context of that argument and the levels of anger that were being displayed that forced her to respond and react.

You had to make sure that everyone was aware of what had led to that.

But yeah, I mean, you could argue that, but I think you're always making decisions based on a duty of care to the housemates and also following the broadcasting code where you can.

We certainly could have challenged them a little bit more.

In hindsight, very easy to say this.

They could have been challenged more on what might have been termed at the time as casual racism, but is now, I think, widely regarded as simply racism.

So they could have been challenged, I think, on that.

And we did challenge them on quite a few things, but, you know, not 100% effective at the time.

I thought that's exactly the right thing to do.

Well done.

The one thing that Jade, I think that people forget about the whole furore around it was that Jade, she held herself accountable.
