Big Brother fans issue same complaint and threaten to 'check out' of show
Big Brother fans threaten to 'check out' over showmance

Big Brother fans issued the same complaint just seconds into tonight's explosive episode, with many threatening to switch off their television screens over the focus on Rhianna and Omar's relationship.

Tensions continue to bubble over in the iconic house as a clear divide causes friction amongst the housemates. Just last night (October 18) saw Catrin left in tears after she expressed her frustrations over comments made behind people's backs.

Hierarchy comments spark confrontation

When Twinks mentioned there was a hierarchy in the house, things turned sour when Philip and Rochelle confronted the comments made. Twinks was also seen in tears as she admitted to Big Brother she was struggling in the house, with Philip admitting he was no longer going to talk to the newcomer.

The explosive scenes come after Rob's live eviction on Friday, October 16, after he was voted the fifth housemate to leave the Big Brother house following a public vote.

Viewers react to showmance focus

Tonight's episode brought yet more drama and chaos with just weeks to go until the final. However, just seconds in tonight's instalment (October 19), viewers issued the same complaint when a preview was shown. The episode had barely started when a preview hinted more drama to come, especially between Omar and Rhianna as they appeared to call time on their relationship.

Taking to social media, viewers threatened to switch off their television screens over the Rhianna and Omar-focussed episode, with many growing tired of their relationship. One person wrote: "An episode centred around the showmance? I might have to check out lol."

Another said: "Cracks are definitely appearing between Omar and Rhianna", as a third added: "The Omar Rihanna love story is so boring is that really the only thing that's been happening the last few days?"

Viewers call for double eviction

A fourth stated: "Not looking forward to this episode just knowing that Omar and Rhianna will have more than 5 seconds of airtime! Annoyed already!"

A fifth slammed: "Not another Omar and Rihanna edit please", a sixth echoed: "Omar and Rihanna double eviction WHOS WITH ME." One person stated: "Looks like this episode is about Omar and Rhianna."

Viewers have previously commented that the pair are better suited apart as one person said: "Rhianna I love you dearly when will you finally be done with Omar." Taking to Instagram though, one viewer shared a reminder on this year's cast, adding: "Reminder. It’s a TV show. No one’s been set up. They are willingly taking part in a show. You’re welcome."

Big Brother continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
