Fresh BBC fakery row

[Gilps]

OK, what was the unsuitable name that did win the vote?

 

The BBC is refusing to comment on reports that Blue Peter's cat was not given the name viewers had chosen for it in an online poll.

 

The cat had been called Socks after the name chosen in the poll was deemed unsuitable for children, several newspapers have reported.

 

Earlier this year the BBC was fined £50,000 after it was found to have faked a Blue Peter phone-in contest.

 

The BBC said it would not comment on the poll, which took place in 2006.
