Big Brother contestant evicted for racism

In yet another BB series, the posh Emily has been booted out of the house for calling a fellow contestant a 'n-word'.
Emily obviously thought she was being "ghetto" and "down with her homy" but hadn't quite realised that it's a word you shouldn't use under any circumstances.

The full dialogue:

Emily: (referring to Charley dancing/pushing her hips forward) You pushing it out you n*****.

Nicky: (shocked laughter) Em, I can't believe you said that.

Charley: You are in trouble.

Emily: Don't make a big thing out of it then. I was joking.

Charley: I know you were… but that's some serious sh**, sorry.

Emily: Why?

Charley: Oh my god. I'm not even saying it.

Nicky: Just don't talk about it anymore.

Emily: I was joking.

Charley: Do you know how many viewers would watch that?

Nicky: Okay, don't make a big deal out of it.

Charley: Fancy you saying that. I can't believe you said that.

Emily: Somebody has already used that word in this house.

Charley: No way. (Pause) Yeah, me. I'm a n*****

Charley is a girl of afro-carribean descent from London and Emily is a white blonde girl.

This was apparently not shown in the live feed from the BB house.

This is after the race row in celebrity BB, for which C4 had to make a grovelling apology, and which had a record number of complaints, culminating in a couple of wrecked media careers by the perpetrators.

Thoughts anyone?
