Castaway's gay resident quits island

The only gay resident on the BBC's Castaway island has quit the show, the Corporation has confirmed.

Trainee psychotherapist Ron Copsey reportedly blamed personality clashes and "inflated egos" for his decision to leave the Hebridean island of Taransay, where the £2 million series is being filmed, on Saturday.

Mr Copsey, 43, from Middlesex, is understood to have been unhappy with the strict regime imposed by the other Castaways, complaining that it was at odds with his more relaxed attitude.

The former Kew Gardens worker's temper tantrums have been one of the highlights of the show and are said to be one of the reasons for its high viewing figures.

Mr Copsey was believed to have fled to the nearby island of Harris and spent Saturday night in a hotel before returning to the mainland.

A BBC spokesman said: "Ron made it clear that he had been finding life on the island difficult and he left on Saturday."

The spokesman added that further details would emerge during the course of the programme.
