ITV has been hit with a number of Ofcom complaints over two of their most talked about shows - with one even being branded 'inflammatory' by a police chief before it aired
ITV's new police-based sitcom, Piglets, has sparked outrage among viewers, leading to hundreds of complaints to Ofcom.
According to Ofcom, "complaints alleged that the programme's title and content were disrespectful to the police force." Piglets follows the journey of six rookie cops and their trainers. Tiffany Lynch, Acting National Chair of the Police Federation of England and Wales, criticised the show's name as "inflammatory against a landscape of rising threats and violence against officers" and accused it of putting officers "at further risk for viewing numbers".
Tension flared on the island as Joey and Sean continually stirred up drama involving Mimii and Ayo's relationship. Viewers saw Ayo recouple with Jess after leaving Mimii at the notorious Casa Amor twist.
