Here are the top 6 most explosive moments in reality TV history.
Kim Woodburn v Jamie O’Hara on Celebrity Big Brother
7
The 2017 series of Celebrity Big Brother is known for being one of the most drama-filled series due to the huge bust up between Kim Woodburn and Jamie O’Hara.
Kim was removed from the main house after labelling Jamie O’Hara an “adulterer” in a furious row.
The How Clean Is Your House star was forced to sleep in a spare bedroom by show bosses as Big Brother separated her from fellow housemates, including dad-of-three Jamie.
The footballer saw red after Kim called him an “adulterer”.
After rowing with Nicola – who she branded “a horrible girl” – Kim continued to take shots at the other housemates, and shrieked: “You’re a two-faced bunch, chicken-livered s**ts.”
After Jamie tried to interject, she shut him down, and shouted: “You’re another one you chicken-livered bugger.”
Jamie then vented back: “Who the f**k are you talking to?
“You’re a disgrace, you are nasty, you are vile.”
Security then entered to break things up, but Kim couldn’t resist a last shot at Jamie and shouted: “You adulterer, that two-timed your wife and she’s got three kids.
“These people, they put me through hell.”
Kim was then removed from the house for the night, and slept somewhere else, before returning the next day.
Bruce v Jayson on Coach Trip

Fans of Coach Trip will remember the epic moment which took place on one of the episodes of the game show.
The show aired on Channel 4 in 2005 and saw four to seven pairs of tourists undertaking a coach tour of Europe between twenty and fifty days, alongside tour guide Brendan Sheerin.
Every evening, each couple voted for the pair they least enjoyed travelling with, and the pair with the most votes received either a yellow or red card.
In one particular episode, an angry interchange took place between couples Tam & Jayson and Bruce & Jon.
Jayson is seen shouting over to Bruce, saying: “You’re such a party pooper.”
This angers Bruce, who then hits back: “I don’t really like you anyway, you’re an evil, fat-bottom queen and a vile person.”
After the heated exchange took place, Bruce & Jon were forced to leave the show.
Speaking about the bizarre outbreak afterwards, Brendan said: “This is Coach Trip!
“I know that we have disagreements along the way. But nothing as strong or as personal as this. It was like a volcanic eruption.
“Bruce got vitriolic about this, he got really, really nasty. He changed and went into a rage.
“Tam then jumped to the defence of Jayson, then Bruce thought he was going to take both of them on.
“It was a bloomin’ nightmare. Everybody else got upset and worried.
“I really thought I was going to have my first ever fight.”
Real Housewives of Cheshire dinner party showdown

The Real Housewives of Cheshire follows the lives of some of the wealthiest women in the area’s ‘Golden Triangle’ – many of which have gobs to match the size of their bank balances.
Having run for 18 series, the show – and its stars – have seen their fair share of scandal.
During one particular dinner party exchange, in Season 6 of the show, Dawn Ward, wife of ex-Premier League footballer Ashley Ward, gets into a heated row with Tanya Bardsley.
She hits out at her and says: “Listen you little chav, you’re nothing but a phony yourself. Two-faced.”
She then tells her: “Shut up Tanya, be quiet you silly girl.”
The row then escalates to include the other housewives, who then get into a fiery exchange with each other following the initial row.
Peter v Jane on Come Dine With Me
7
One of the most notable moments on Come Dine With Me happened during episode 1 of Season 37, titled “East Oxfordshire: All In One”.
The episode was full of high tensions and disagreements between two contestants, Jane and Peter, which then ended in a heated argument and a notorious rant after the winner was announced.
Reading the results, Peter announces that he has come in fourth place, and, visibly annoyed, he says: “You silly, silly people.”
He then goes on to share that Jane was the winner, saying: “You won Jane, enjoy the money. I hope it makes you very happy.”
“Dear lord, what a sad little life, you ruined my night so you could have the money but I hope you now spend it on lessons on grace and decorum.”
“You have all the grace of a reversing dump truck without any tyres on.”
Peter’s reaction became a hugely memorable moment on the show.
Edwina Curry v Kendra Wilkinson on I’m a Celebrity
7
With its tough trials and cramped conditions, tempers always flare on I’m A Celeb.
What started as an innocent conversation about philosophy quickly escalated into a heated argument, with many choice words being exchanged between the former Tory minister and Playboy model back in 2014.
Kendra, talking to her fellow campmates, claimed that “you should never live your life for anyone…EVER” – something which Edwina, 76, disagreed with, to put it mildly.
As the situation progressed and tempers flared, US personality Kendra lashed out: “Shut the f*** up and get the f*** out of our conversation.”
She then branded Edwina a “heartless a*** politician”.
Edwina, not backing down, hit back: “Kendra you can’t dominate me, so don’t even try.”
Now 39, Kendra ended up having to be restrained by her fellow campmates.
Kady McDermott v Malia Arkian on Love Island
7
Love Island star Kady McDermott’s explosive row with co-star Malia Arkian is one of the most shocking moments in the history of the reality show.
Kady appeared on the hit dating show, where she met now ex-boyfriend Scott Thomas and finished in third place.
The argument, which ended with Malia being removed from the villa, was only briefly aired and cut away before things became physical between the pair.
However, in 2019 Kady shared a video showing exactly what went down and revealed she had been punched in the face and left with a bleeding nose.
The row between the women began when Kady accidentally spilled her drink over Malia, causing tensions to erupt.
The newcomer, who had only arrived at the villa that day, leapt from her seat and questioned whether it had been done on purpose as she had been on a date with Scott, who Kady was coupled up with.
It was reported at the time that she had been shoved in an “altercation” and Love Island bosses responded by removing Malia from the show.
During the show, they aired the argument with the two screaming at each other but did not air any physical fighting.
Kady later claimed Malia punched her during the fracas and blood was drawn.
