Celebrity Big Brother’s Hardeep Singh Kohli and Ryan Thomas butt heads over the disgusting dinner party task, which Singh Kohli declares is “immoral”.

The housemates are told there will be a meal with “delicacies” such as old eggs, tripe, and rancid milk on offer.

Broadcaster Singh Kohli – a keen cook – is unimpressed, and makes his feelings known to his fellow housemates.

A clip shared ahead of the latest episode of the Channel 5 programme shows him asking: “Do you think viewers are entertained by watching people trying not to throw up?”

When actor Thomas tells him people do enjoy it, Singh Kohli replies: “Well I don’t understand that… I don’t understand what the world gains from that but it’s the way which you still know if it’s a circus – ban the circuses.”

Thomas tells him he can’t take things too seriously but Singh Kohli insists: “I can take it exactly however I want to take it.”

The debate rumbles on, with the presenter saying the fact he was not getting it might be his “failing”.

“It’s not about having a nice dinner, it’s about a task that’s hard work that everyone’s supposed to you know… suffer,” explains Thomas.

Singh Kohli snapped back: “It’s just f****** immoral, it’s wrong.

“Watching people vomit bad food on telly – great!”

“But Hardeep, Hardeep, you’ll sit in a room with 13 people and fart. Is that not the same thing but in a different way?” the former Corrie star asked.

Leaving the room, the broadcaster told him: “In your world, if that’s the same thing Ryan…” and gave him a thumbs up.

Celebrity Big Brother airs at 9pm on Channel 5.
