Big Brother was hit by another race row after Jemima Slade made comments believed to be racist by fellow housemate Gina Rio, on Monday.

Slade confessed on the show that she does not like black guys, the Daily Star reported.

Rio exploded into a foul-mouthed frenzy after challenging the dating agency boss about her "racist" views.

Big Brother bosses, who were forced to step in after the heated clash, issued Slade with a formal warning over her language, which according to them could be deemed racist.

However, Slade confessed to former police officer Dan Neal that she was ready to quit the show after her telling-off from BB.
