Big Brother housemates Gerry and Seany had a war of words today after failing the recent fish task.

The two men have been sharing a bed and have seemed to be getting close over the last few days, but tempers were frayed after spending an hour in a sardine tin.

Gerry got particularly annoyed when Seany flung oily rags at him while he was trying to clean up.

The gallery researcher said: “The thing is you want to make everyone happy, and sometimes you constantly talk.

“I enjoy listening to you, but when people are trying to get over this oily mess, and you throw towels on them, why do you think that’s funny?”
