Heartstopper star Bradley’s impromptu exit – which has seen him miss out on the final by a matter of days – has now sparked a flurry of Ofcom complaints from upset fans.

One took to X to post: “Hellooooo Ofcom! AJ Odudu x Bradley.”

A second put: “Yall gonna wake up to so much Ofcom complaints tomorrow.”

A third then put: “I need to talk with the people of Ofcom because that eviction was brutal.”

Yet one then retorted: “All you youngsters coming out saying Bradley’s eviction was cruel, my goodness, let’s go back to the Channel 4 series! You’d be phoning Ofcom every night.”

Cruel blow

Bradley’s exit came as some of the cast received sweet messages from home.

Yet instead, he was treated to a visit from one of the Celebrity Big Brother hosts.

After he was told the sad news by host Aj Odudu, AJ then informed the star: “Bradley, your stay in the Celebrity Big Brother house is over, you must return to the house, say your goodbyes and leave immediately.

Behind the scenes

During an appearance on today’s Good Morning Britain Bradley told of the behind the scenes procedures following his exit.

It came after the CBB live stream was cut earlier in the week to prevent spoilers.

Bradley was evicted on Wednesday but had to lie low and go into lockdown to keep the secret safe.

He told Adil Ray and Kate Garraway on today’s ITV show: “The whole of Wednesday I was with a chaperone like in lockdown. No phone, nothing. Only an iPad with Netflix on it and that was it.”

Bradley said he knew the writing was on the wall as soon as AJ Odudu entered the house in her teetering heels.
