Two thrown out of Big Brother amid sex claims
Two contestants on Big Brother are at the centre of a sexual controversy after being ejected from the Channel Ten program.

John and Ashley allegedly sexually harassed female contestant Camilla early yesterday.

Viewers who had watched the reality program online at 4.30am yesterday described the incident on Big Brother's online forum.

The alleged harassment was taken so seriously by Channel Ten and producers from Southern Star Endemol, they ejected the two contestants from the house. It is the first time any Big Brother contestants in Australia have been removed from the competition by the program's makers.

"I can't comment [on the sexual allegations]," said David Brown, from Southern Star Endemol. "But their removal from the house should indicate how serious the matter is."

Mr Brown said police had not laid any charges surrounding the incident.

The two men will not receive any further prizes or endorsements from the program because of the official breach of rules regarding sexual harassment.

Security guards escorted the pair from the Gold Coast compound yesterday.

In a joint statement shortly after they left the house, Ashley, a bricklayer from Western Australia, and John, a student from Victoria, admitted they had broken the game's rules.

"We had a great time in the house and it is unfortunate it had to end this way but BB has rules and regulations and we broke them," the statement said.

"We are all very close in the house and we would never do anything to offend our fellow housemates."

Eight contestants remain in the sixth series of the show, battling it out for the $275,000 prizemoney.

The money started at $1 million but has been whittled away as the contestants have incurred fines for breaches including not wearing microphones, discussing nominations and singing commercial music.

Tonight David, Camilla, Gaelan and Krystal are up for elimination.

Producers said an eviction would still go ahead despite yesterday's developments.

Isn't that what the show exists for? To watch people sexually harrass each other?

Caught the end of this on CNN International last night, but missed the details of what the issue was. Seemed like it was getting discussed in parliament, with pressure on the PM to ban the show outright

Apparently one man pinned the girl down and the other rubbed his crotch in her face.

No further action will be taken by the police and the woman involved has not made a complaint.

Well, I saw the footage from you link and I didn't think it was inappropriate, given the topic of discussion. And it's not like you can see his jimmy, or anything. ;)

boy.. she really seemed upset.

The giggles and and smiles and laughter and hand going under the blanket towards the guy who said he "needed a hand" merely masked her sense of harassment.
