Piers Morgan & Jerry Springer Shows Feature In UK Regulator’s Most Complained About Of All Time
Piers Morgan & Jerry Springer shows lead Ofcom's most complained about of all time alongside Big Brother, Love Island, Dan Wootton
Morgan’s Good Morning Britain rant, during which he questioned Meghan Markle’s claims that her time with the royal family had left her feeling suicidal, sits top of the pile with 54,595 complaints, coming as the regulator publishes the all-time list to celebrate its 500th monthly bulletin. In fact, there were only two breaches in the top 10, one of them being an episode of Celebrity Big Brother from 2007 that attracted 45,000 complaints over racism directed at Indian star Shilpa Shetty, which dominated the tabloids’ front pages for weeks, and the other being last year’s highly misogynistic rant by Laurence Fox on GB News’ Dan Wootton Tonight. Other shows to feature in the top 10 include Love Island, Britain’s Got Talent and King Charles III: The Coronation, the latter of which attracted complaints after Bridgerton star Adjoa Andoh said the royal family was “terribly white” as they took to the Buckingham Palace balcony.
