Earlier in the episode, fans were raving about the show’s drama, which started early this year when two housemates clashed within hours of entering the iconic house.
During the show’s opening, Lily and Sarah were seen bumping heads as tensions rose following the shocking twist.
After being told they weren’t real housemates and would be living in a depot, 11 participants were all lumped together in an incredibly uncomfortable environment.
In the episode clip, Lily, 20, could be seen making fun of Sarah’s posh accent, before Sarah, 27, burst into tears after being ‘overwhelmed’ by the big brother experience.

To is so hard’: ‘Who had Lily and Sarah on their bingo card for day 1?’.
Monday’s live launch saw fans criticize the show for ripping off Love Island, as they accused ITV of raiding the dating show’s rejection pile to create the line-up.
Hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best welcomed the new contestants, all hoping to scoop the show’s huge £100,000 prize later this year.
But viewers at home noticed that many of this year’s cast shared many similarities with each other, with the vast majority being in their twenties and only one contestant over the age of forty.
As the new stars introduced themselves to each other and to the nation, fans pointed out that they were all ‘young and attractive with veneers’ and said they felt like ‘participants in Love Island’s love shop’.
They condemned ITV for ‘misunderstanding the purpose of the show’, arguing that what made Big Brother interesting was the fact that there were ‘people of all ages and backgrounds’.
Big Brother continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
