Tears are always guaranteed in the Big Brother house.

And on Wednesday night's show, housemate Sallie became the latest contestant to break down in front of the cameras - over a stain on her top.

Meanwhile, ratings for the long-running reality show have hit a new low for Channel 5, with just 1.23 million viewers tuning in.

Wednesday night saw Sallie getting upset as she soiled the very top she wanted to wear on Friday night for the live eviction - where she will find out if she has been saved by the voting public, or if she will be sent packing.
The tattooed babe threw a wobbly as the emotion of being nominated for the live

eviction took over.

Hazel and Dan tried their best to comfort their housemate, while Sophie tried her best to wash the stain out.

While it is unclear what Sallie will now wear for Friday night's eviction, she will be oblivious to the real drama surrounding the reality show - that hardly anyone is bothering to tune in.

Producers of the show have desperately tried to inject a bit of fresh life into Big Brother's tired format - including a double launch night, live streaming options, and the much publicized 'mole' contestant who the public can instruct to make life hell for the other contestants.

But despite the new tricks, ratings just aren't there.

Viewing figures reveal that the fourteenth series only launched to an audience of just above 2 million - with numbers dripping off since.

The latest figure for Wednesday night's episode which aired between 10 and 11 pm was viewed by only 1.23 million tuned in (with an extra 100,000 watching on 5 +1) - according to tellymix.co.uk

With the housemates blissfully unaware that not many people are watching their painful attention seeking behaviour, tensions have been running high after they were asked to anonymously make suggestions about each other.

A suggestion was made that former copper Dan 'needs to stop being so bitchy and give Michael a break.Your honesty and views are sometimes wrong and are making some of the group feel isolated.'

This lead to drama as Dexter later revealed he was the one to make the suggestion - with Sallie branding him a snake as a consequence and suggesting he was being tactical to avoid eviction.

But it wasn't all misery in the famous house, as the contestants were reward for their honesty by being given the ingredients to make a spaghetti Bolognese for their dinner.

In the early hours of Thursday morning, the housemates were in utter hysterics as one of the housemates broke their bed.

Jack - who is in the house along with his near identical twin Joe - accidentally broke his bed when he sat on it.

A little bit embarrassed by the situation, the housemate set about trying to rectify the situation as soon as it happened.

However the other contestants just couldn't resist having a laugh at the twin's expense.

They were all hooting with laughter as they took it in turns to inspect the damage - giggling and staggering around the BB bedroom as a result.

Everyone was up and out of their beds as a result of the hilarity - bringing some much needed lightness to the air following a first week of drama and tension.
