Ofcom has received 17 complaints so far regarding Channel 4's Celebrity Big Brother, with some viewers concerned about the editing of the programme.
Reports suggest the complainants have accused Channel 4 of editing out footage of CBB housemate Jermaine Jackson carrying out his Muslim five-times-a-day praying rituals.
A spokesman for Channel 4 said: "We can confirm that neither Channel 4 nor (production company) Brighter Pictures have any policy or intention to prevent the broadcast of Jermaine praying in the Big Brother House. Material featuring him praying has been broadcast so far this series.”
Ofcom confirmed that the complaints it had received to date were across a range of issues, and were currently being investigated.
