Big Brother Intervention
A Channel 4 spokeswoman admitted Big Brother had intervened in the row - but only to make contestants "realise that what they have said has been misconstrued in the house". The idea, she said, was to allow the housemates "to explain themselves" to their fellow contestants. This was followed by a series of apologies by the housemates to Shilpa, and a declaration by her that she did not believe Jade was racist. Also Jade said inside the house before she left: "I know why there's no noise". When Shilpa asked "Why?", Jade replied: "I know, but I can't tell you". In an interview with the Daily Star, Jade admitted that, during her final hours in the Channel 4 house, Big Brother had revealed that her abuse of Shilpa had ruined her own "girl-next-door" image.

Famous quotes containing the word intervention:
“All of the assumptions once made about a parent’s role have been undercut by the specialists. The psychiatric specialists, the psychological specialists, the educational specialists, all have mystified child development. They have fostered the idea that understanding children and promoting their intellectual well-being is too complex for mothers and requires the intervention of experts.”
—Elaine Heffner (20th century)
