“Sorry but it’s disgusting… total favouritism! I’m sorry.”

It prompted viewers to hit out at the star on social media – with some saying they were going to contact TV watchdog Ofcom.

Another said: “Can’t believe Boy George just said about Jill “she’s dead to me.”

“If we all complain about boy george saying “she’s dead to me” maybe he’ll get kicked out,” said a third viewer.
