Rodrigo caught up in Noirin's argument

Rodrigo found himself subject to Noirin's temper yesterday evening when he tried to stick up for Angel in a row over washing up.

The housemates had been enjoying their night when Noirin asked Angel if she would wash up because she was yet to do so in her three weeks as a housemate.

Rodrigo came to the boxer's defence, telling Noirin that she should go easy on her because it may be her last night.

Noirin's temper immediately flared up and a row escalated. Rodrigo seemed slightly bewildered as Noirin shouted: "I'm sick of cleaning, I'm sick of cooking."

She told Marcus and Siavash as they tried to cool the situation: "I don't see why people take advantage of things. It's not fair. She's been here three weeks and shared the drying up once."

Marcus tried to reason with her that he was happy to keep washing up because he enjoyed it. But Noirin then became angry that no-one was sticking up for her, despite many of the housemates previously complaining about Angel's laziness.

Rodrigo told Kris in the sitting room: "Even if [Angel] was a really nasty person, let's respect her last night."

Kris commented that Noirin's argument was "bad timing", but added that he was also frustrated with Angel. "But it's an opinion that could have been left alone for one night," he said.

Marcus took the Dubliner out into the garden to cool off and later gave her advice about controlling her temper and biting her tongue.

"I do need to take a chill pill sometimes," Noirin admitted.
