Nice one Trevor...

Not long ago, I noted that Trevor Phillips' comments - "reality TV is improving race relations" - seemed too optimistic about reality TV and too pessimistic about real life in Britain today.

I thought it churlish at the time to suggest that the Big Brother house had divided into two hostile ethnic camps. Nevertheless, it is becoming increasingly clear that this is the case, as this recent Guardian piece suggests. No wonder Davina McCall was so nervous during Friday's eviction show.
