Big Brother housemates Rochelle and Johanne were involved in a heated clash that saw them pulled apart by their fellow contestants, in scenes that will air on Tuesday night, just 24 hours after the group moved into the house.
The row marks the first major argument of the current series and comes after tensions built throughout the day before boiling over during an evening game.
The disagreement began earlier in the day when Rochelle, described as an Essex housewife, started talking about her love of dogs. "Dog is God backwards," she said. "Dogs worship you and... they're, you're their whole world. And you're meant to like love God, and you love your dogs don't you?"
Johanne told her that comparing a dog to God was "a bit much," prompting Rochelle to hit back: "God does horrible things to you, for no reason."
Johanne insisted that God had "never done anything horrible to her," and when Rochelle pressed her again, Johanne replied: "Well, you should go pray, or maybe you deserved it."
Tensions boil over during evening game
Things came to a head that evening during a question game played by the housemates. Fellow contestant Rhianna asked Rochelle: "Who are you most likely to not stay in contact with outside of this?"
Johanne said, "If it's me, I won't be offended," before Rochelle asked, "Can you just say anyone?... Johanne," to which Johanne responded, "What was the question?" On hearing Rhianna's question, Johanne said: "You too... we're in agreement. Yeah, we're in agreement."
Minutes later, another housemate, Charlotte, asked Johanne who annoyed her the most. Johanne answered: "Rochelle. It's gonna be the same thing. She asked me who annoys me the most and I said Rochelle. I mean every answer, who do I like least, who annoys me the most. It's gonna be her."
Housemates step in to separate the pair
Rochelle shot back: "Ditto... You've got a real f*****g problem. You've only been here one day." Johanne then furiously told Rochelle that she was "her f*****g problem," and the pair continued to vent their frustrations at one another.
Rochelle was heard screaming at Johanne to "f**k off," while Johanne hit back telling her not to get loud with her. Other housemates then stepped in to try to calm the situation down.
Big Brother is the long-running British reality format in which a group of strangers live together under constant camera surveillance, with viewers watching their relationships develop and unravel in real time. The current series airs nightly at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
What happens next
The full row between Rochelle and Johanne will play out in Tuesday night's episode. It remains to be seen whether the pair will manage to patch things up or whether the rift will continue to define their time in the house.
