Celebrity SAS star Ant Middleton faces Ofcom investigation after cruelly calling Anthea Turner 'grandma'

CELEBRITY SAS hard-nut Ant Middleton faces being investigated by Ofcom after he mocked Anthea Turner by calling the 59-year-old star "Grandma".

However, Anthea herself said she wasn't bothered about the insults, calling it "water off a duck's back".: "Well, I think that's very kind of them but I absolutely don't hold it against him whatsoever. Former GMTV presenter Andrea threw herself into the SAS training experience on the show, hurling herself out of a helicopter backwards into icy water and running 5km with a heavy backpack on.

Oh dear

Ain't she old enough to be one

What? What's wrong with calling someone grandma

I'm ex armed forces, bieng called names was standard shouting Oi dickhead across the hangar at another soldier was bieng friendly. I actively hate all these snowflakes who take everything personally.

Oh for goodness sake 🙈 it was in jest

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 well she does look like a grandma! leave the guy alone! Not many truth talkers these days -he is one of the rare - one of the last of us

Reckon most took it as humour, most women in their 50’s have quite a good sense of humour, whether or not we are actual Grandmas.

Good to see that despite the warm weather, the snowflakes are still out in force. 16 complaints out of how many viewers? 😂😂. I dont think antmiddleton has too much to worry about here 🤔😂.

Absolute joke.

Bit of harmless Banter , move along !!

😂 give over

Pathetic do people not get the concept of this program , some people really wind me up . Snowflakes

Ffs it was just banter !!! where does this political correctness end .🙄🤔😭

Really sticks and stones do break my bones names never hurt me

Oh dear. How awful.

Bad lads army was much much better.

What a load of shite, they are aware of what lies ahead when they sign up, what sort of pansy complains about a bit of service talk.

Please please ✋

It’s only a problem if it’s not true

Oh fuck off! Anthea was interviewed after and was laughing about it... 🤦🏼‍♀️👵🏼👵🏼👵🏼👵🏼👵🏼

She took it well and she looks bloody good for someone her age .

Can you imagine if went to war! Half the people would not turn up, complaints would go in for bullying against the enemy, if we didn’t win we would want a rematch until we did win, we can’t shoot anyone due to being racist! It’s all a joke!

Get a life people if you can’t take the flack & stick don’t go on the program & don’t watch it, theses people in real life are trained soldiers who put there life at risk to protect the rest of you snowflakes who would last 3mins in there world.

Well she defo looks like a grandma, she is old enough to be one...

He called another one turbo shit nobody's complaining about that

If you ever get caught by a terrorist I’m sure they will keep well away from sexism and ageism and only attack your fingers and toes and maybe if you are lucky, your genitalia.

Ffs it's Squaddie humour, get a grip snowflakes

I bet that brought her down to earth with a bang big headed bitch

Why is grandma a slur? Most of us love our grandmas and they love being one.

If sas training is too hard to watch cbbc does have on demand

Ofcom What an outfit.

🙄

is she a grandma? If so then it's factually accurate surely!?

Hahahahaha sas wannabe

Who gives a fuck what he called her she got paid for taking part nobody is going to get killed so there is no fear all for show

It’s a tv show to which they all signed up to just get real

People who complained should be investigated for being fucking soft

Oh please, for goodness sake!! CelebritySAS AntMiddleton AntheaTurner

This is the (pretend) SAS not netball practice. But why make a fake show about toughness, water it down and then get offended when somebody passes wind CommonSense

Bloody snowflakes

Wow really. Why watch the show, his always digging people out. Get a life people lol

Can't stand ageism

To many snowflakes... Grow a pair ffs

Pathetic waste of time.

Aww fgs it wasn’t personal

Is this a joke?

FFS what has it come to? Grow up!

I've served in the military and I would be happy to be called grandpa compared to some of the names I was called..

Oh we’re feelings hurt? 😭😂

Funny that and if he gets fined or something then how about Piers Morgan who got away with daily bullying interview techniques.. GMB views of GMB won’t let this go till Piers goes!

For godsake it’s a frigging sas based program! Don’t watch if you don’t want to but leave it the hell alone!

I'm sure he's terrified of the outcome!

WTF

Awwww FFS, they know what the series is about! IF YOU CAN’T TAKE IT, DON’T GO ON IT IF YOU DON’T LIKE IT, DON’T WATCH IT!

If being called grandma up sets people, you have no idea of the military

OMG What next!

Not a fan of Anthea Turner at all but I despise this bloke. The likes of him and Bear Gryll have turned 5 minutes in the Armed services into multimillion pounds businesses. The real SAS heroes either live quiet lives after military service or are still serving.

Bollocks! So what? Go on to a special forces selection program and expect to be treated nicely 🤔.

Not the end of the world, I am sure if she was a serving soldier she’d have a lot more to worry about than being called grandma, and I a, sure recruits have to put up with a lot worse.

Lol how ridiculous

Grandma? Steady on. To my missus that is an honour.

When will people grow up !!

If this is true... ? What the actual F...this is the SAS for shits sake, get a grip

You must be f*ckin joking! On a day like today when we're remembering genuinely brave men and women some SJW snowflakes complain about this! Didn't bother Anthea one bit. I despair!🤬

OMG have you ever heard anything so stupid Anthea Turner is old enough to be a great Grandma Whats the problem with that ?

Ffs they r taking part in a special forces training camp , what did they expect 5 star treatment oir special forces r the best in the world because they r put through gruelling training not bloody rapped in cotton wool

She is she’s 70 isn’t she

Lefties complaining in between clapping for their favourite cult

Oh get a fucking grip.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 snowflakes 😂😂😂😂😂😂🖕😂🖕

If it didn't bother her why should it bother anyone else?

Give it a rest,this is a reality show which they all agreed to for a good wage,these guys were SAS soldiers not snowflakes.

Society of snow flakes, he also said how she just got on with it when falling backwards from a helicopter

Good old Anthea, just shrugged off the grandma thing. Good girl for not being bothered by it unlike the nosey complainers who snitched to Ofcom. Don’t they look silly now. 😂

If that's all he's guilty of build a bridge and get over it. He could have said alot worse!

Grow up

😂😂😂😂. Swear agressively all you like.......but don’t call me grandma !!!!!

Rubbish

Since when been a grandma is an Insult?

The guy is turning into a right arse! Used to think he was good at what he did but he’s turning into a bully

Ofcom that word raises a laugh on its own like the electoral comm needs disbanding not fit for purpose.

I wonder what Gunnery drill sergeant Hartman might have said to her 😂

Snowflakes....everywhere

She is 59 years old. She could be a great grandmother

Bit pathetic

In a job where your behaviour needs to be addressed quickly or there is a risk your mistakes cost lives, Short sharp shocks work best. Maybe only 1 in 20000 have what really takes to be in the SAS. Snowflakes need not apply.

😂

Yeah, Yeah and he called me grandad but I wouldn't say it or confirm it to his face, like!

16 Karen's complained 😂

Can’t take a joke, shouldn’t have signed up.

I'm sure the payment for participating in the show is worthy of a little name-calling as if she is not pushing 60 and never knew

I must say Im not liking him this series ego bigger than him at the min

She wants to be in a tv show, in which she participates in a quasi version of UK Special Forces Selection and she, or a snowflake viewer is insulted by name calling? FFS!

Really

If you don't understand SOLDIERS don't watch 😡

Is name calling what he learned to do from real SAS soldiers? AntMiddleton AntheaTurner

Heard worse on the show tbh🙄

really? thats ridiculous who elects these idiots at ofcom?

Snowflake generation 🙄

What a load of rubbish 😄

Yeah, but Anthea called him a ‘silly Billy’......6 of one in my eyes....

Name calling should be illegal !

He is a tosser isn't he?
