BBC reports :

Police have seized a "gorilla coat" belonging to Celebrity Big Brother contestant Pete Burns.
Officers from the Hertfordshire Constabulary took the coat from the Big Brother house on Thursday after a number of complaints from viewers.

A spokeswoman for the force said: "The coat will now be tested."

Last week a government minister warned Burns could face jail for wearing a gorilla fur. Owning a gorilla skin without a permit is illegal in the UK.

'Number of complaints'

Burns said the coat was made from gorilla fur when he entered the Big Brother house at the start of the series in early January.

The police spokeswoman added: "Following a number of complaints from members of the public regarding a coat taken into the Big Brother house by Pete Burns, the coat in question has been handed across to police officers from Herts Constabulary."

A spokesman for the Channel 4 programme confirmed the fur had been taken.

"We have passed the coat to police for investigation. Pete is aware of the situation." he said.
 
I had the fright of the night yesterday - I was idly tuning in to see what was on, without consulting the oracle of the Radio Times, and there was this hideous creature, with strangely dead eyes, wearing a set of horse's teeth, and with a clown's lips drawn over its thin mouth. It also had a year's supply of Pancake on its face, nasty cheap-looking false nails, and it blew smoke over some mumbling, almost human-like, aliens. What was it? I think Area 51 should be notified. The X-Files may not be entirely fictional.
 
I couldn't hear it - in fact, I could hear what I took some time to recognize as Galloway's voice intoning in the background, which was very surreal, as the camera kept showing close-ups of people who either weren't speaking (Rula Lenska) or others who were, but whose voices couldn't be heard. Anyway, whatever The Thing is, it desperately needs a face transplant. Any face would improve it - perhaps the next old horse to die of old age: it'd be an improvement.
 
Oh, okay, okay, I give up: what's with the battery hen line? What's going to hatch out of the eggs, and have they signed in as Members and told us something about themselves?
