Former Coronation Street star Ken Morley has “been removed” from the Big Brother house for using “unacceptable language”.

Hundreds of people complained about the actor who was previously given a formal warning by show bosses for using “unacceptable language” after he called US singer Alexander O’Neal a “negro”.

A Channel 5 spokesman said: “Ken Morley has been removed from the Celebrity Big Brother house for using unacceptable and offensive language following his formal warning.

Tuesday’s eviction is now cancelled and lines are now closed. Anyone who has already voted will be able to apply for a full refund and details will be available on the Big Brother website within 24 hours.”
