The BBC says it has received complaints after Celebrity Traitors winners Romesh Ranganathan and Sebastian Croft gave their prize money to refugee charities. Each won £41,500, with Ranganathan backing the Refugee Council and Croft choosing Choose Love. The broadcaster said it understood some viewers were unhappy and had passed on the feedback. Ranganathan says the angry backlash has actually rallied many supporters of his choice.
