Big Brother house in chaos yet AGAIN with latest explosive row - and fans think it's "phenomenal"

The Big Brother house descended into disarray yet again in tonight's (24 September) episode, and this time it was all thanks to some questionable chicken. Rochelle and Johanne clashed once more, with the latter accusing the former of not preparing the group's meal properly.

When Johanne went to cook her portion for a little longer in the kitchen's air fryer, all hell broke loose - with Rochelle ultimately being called into the Diary Room to cool down.

Just to add an extra element of chaos, the scenes came during a Noah's Ark task - with Rochelle dressed as a bug, and Johanne in costume as a lion.

"Phenomenal," former housemate Cameron Kinch commented on Instagram; while another viewer wrote: "This is so good [laughing emojis] that’s the definition of chaos reality tv."

"I can’t this is so wild pls," a third person wrote; while another said: "oh my gosh these two are comedy gold."

There were plenty of people on each contestant's side, with one writing: "TEAM JOHANNE, I’m sorry I’m going [to] that Air Fryer as well I’m not sitting there eating Raw Chicken!!!"

Conversely, another posted: "I like both ladies but I think [Johanne] likes to press buttons just saying!!"

Neither housemate is at risk of leaving in tomorrow night's live eviction, as it's Chelsey and Pauline who received the most nominations from the rest of the group.

Also tonight, Rochelle's fellow bug Rob broke down in tears after the row, saying: "I didn't want this to break me, this stupid f**king animal challenge."

And before the end credits rolled, things turned serious as Yasmin and Omar got into a debate over immigration in the United Kingdom.

After Samuel and Pauline were seen disapproving of the chat, former housemate Zelah Glasson wrote on Instagram: "I’ll never understand the people who get angry when politics (and general humanity) is mentioned - are we forgetting that Big Brother is a social experiment?"
