CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER TONIGHT: MONDAY 21 APRIL, FULL EPISODE RUNDOWN

A new batch of VIPs embark on the original social experiment, taking up residence in the Big Brother house. Here's a full rundown for tonight's episode of Celebrity Big Brother on ITV1...

FACE-TO-FACE NOMINATIONS TAKE A SHOCKING TURN

Big Brother gathers housemates for nominations. And this time, they’re doing it face-to-face. 

In front of each housemate is a basket with two eggs inside. They must place an egg in the basket of the housemates they wish to nominate and explain their reasons. 

First up is Angellica: “My first nomination is for you, Patsy. You’re my bed buddy. And we’ve grown very close, and shared stories. But I’m nominating you because sometimes I feel you snap at me. And sometimes I don’t feel confident to help you in the kitchen – a space that I like as well.” 

Ella explains one of her choices: “I’m nominating Chris. I’ve been told you like to play a massive game. And you come into things with a game plan. And when Daley said that to me, and told me to be careful, I can’t get it out of my head.”

As nominations unfold, it all proves too much, and one housemate abruptly leaves the room in floods of tears. Will they be able to pull it together and carry on with the process?  

If nominating face-to-face wasn’t hard enough, Big Brother has another brutal twist up his sleeve. 

One of the nominated housemates is given the chance to save themselves. They must find the one golden egg hidden in a basket at the centre of the room. Find this, and they save themselves. BUT they must choose one of the non-nominated housemates to replace them. Who will be saved? And who is set to face the public vote? 

A SPECIAL EASTER BUNNY GUEST VISITS THE HOUSE

There’s a special secret visit from the Easter bunny, who comes in the form of recently evicted celebrity housemate, Michael Fabricant. Dressed for the occasion, fluffy bunny tail and floppy ears included, Michael hops around the house to hide some Easter eggs for housemates to find.  

The housemates’ mission is to solve the clues shown on the living room screen and find the hidden easter eggs if they’re to be in with the chance of winning an eggscellent prize. 

CHRIS REACHES BREAKING POINT

Following some revelations during the Easter egg hunt, Chris heads to the Diary Room where it all becomes a bit too much for him. 

Chris says: “I’m exhausted in this house. I think I’m too normal and live a stress-free life. I avoid negative energy in my day-to-day life. And I’m happier for it. I just don’t get it. If you have things to say, just air it. People enjoying themselves and having fun – that’s just life. I don’t really like the environment much anymore. I hate toxic stuff in life. I hate horrible energy – it just brings you down...

"You can feel when energy shifts and it’s not nice. I don’t want to be emotional and sad, but you can’t help it sometimes. People have made me feel like I can’t have a friendship with JoJo. Or feel like I have to justify a friendship with JoJo – because we get on and we have fun. I’m actually really sad.”

Celebrity Big Brother continues tonight on ITV1 and ITVX.
