ITV 'is inundated with Ofcom complaints as Love Island fans are left furious over Movie Night argument'
ITV has been inundated with complaints from outraged Love Island viewers over the explosive Movie Night episode.
Some viewers were so upset by the heated scenes that they lodged official complaints with the broadcasting watchdog.
According to The Sun, a total of 55 complaints were written in, with Ofcom confirming many related to Nicole Samuel's attitude towards Ciaran Davies.
During the episode, Nicole shouted at Ciaran as clips from his time in Casa Amor were played in front of the entire villa.
Both were seen second guessing their relationship with Ciaran unimpressed over Nicole referring to him as childish.

'You just pulled me up on my biggest insecurity, that I told you,' he told her, to which she said he was 'giving child'.
'It's one thing for me, one thing for you,' he said.
Getting angrier, Nicole replied: 'Was there any clips of me on there getting with any boys, or being interested in any boys, or saying things with any boys?'
'What? Because I kissed Emma in a game?' Ciaran asked.
Fans were left furious by the scenes with some taking to X to tell Ciaran to dump Nicole after the argument.
It comes after reports that Love Island bosses have staged a mass dumping from the villa.
Just a day after a double departure saw Wil Anderson and Uma Jammeh exit the villa, sources claim that viewers should prepare to say goodbye to even more fan favourites in upcoming scenes.
The abode of love was nearly overflowing in recent days as 17 people are still in the running for the final, which is just weeks away.
Just when the Islanders thought they had seen enough drama for one week, Love Island bosses have reportedly staged a mass dumping from the villa
After Wil Anderson and Uma Jammeh's (pictured) emotional departure on Tuesday, show executives swung the axe and chopped a number of fan favourites from the running
Every single spare bed was taken and first-day couples such as Ciaran Davies and Nicole Samuel have had to make use of the day beds in the garden.
After Wil Anderson and Uma Jammeh's emotional departure on Tuesday, show executives swung the axe and chopped a number of fan favourites from the running, according to the Sun.
A source told the publication: 'Logistically there are too many people in that villa right now, but in terms of the flow of the show the sheer amount of singles is a big no-no.
'The central premise of the show is to remain on Love Island, you have to be in a couple.
'Bosses staged a mega cull and it shook things up.'
Despite their argument, Ciaran, 21, and Nicole, 24 are considered one of the only solid couples in the villa whilst Joey Essex, 33, and Jessy Potts, 25, have remained strong through Casa Amor
With three weeks until the final, very few couples are still going strong as there are still seven singletons in the love nest.
Despite their recent argument, Ciaran, 21, and Nicole, 24 are considered one of the only solid couples in the villa whilst Joey Essex, 33, and Jessy Potts, 25, have remained strong through Casa Amor.
Sean Stone and Matilda Draper, both 24, have had several weeks of happiness under their belt, but they were rocked by the relationship test when the sweet shop owner bit off more than he could chew in Casa Amor.
Ayo Odukoya, 25, and his twist coupling with Jessica Spencer, 25, also appeared to pay off, as their romance continues to blossom.
MailOnline has contacted Love Island representatives for a comment.
LOVE ISLAND 2024: MEET THE CONTESTANTS
NAME: Mimii Ngulube
AGE: 24
FROM: Portsmouth
OCCUPATION: Mental Health Nurse
WHY LOVE ISLAND? The pool in Portsmouth is not giving. I've tried dating and speaking to people on social media and it just hasn't been successful. Applying was a spontaneous thing, I didn't expect to get here!
WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? My girls are my rocks and I'm theirs, so I'll be a good friend as well as going in there to find a man. I like dressing up, so I'll bring style, and I'd like to think I'm quite funny so I'll make people laugh. Bringing honesty as well - I'm good at picking up on people's personality traits and side-eyeing those who might be liars.
NAME: Sean Stone
AGE: 24
FROM: Hertford
OCCUPATION: Sweets Salesman
WHY LOVE ISLAND? I've always been one for relationships, and when you have found someone you want to be with it's the best feeling. Now is the perfect time, the one thing that is missing is my soulmate.
HOW WOULD FRIENDS/FAMILY DESCRIBE YOU? Very loving, caring and thoughtful. I'm the kind of guy that, if you broke down on the motorway and needed your tyre changed, I'd be there at any time of night.
NAME: Ayo Odukoya
AGE: 25
FROM: Canning Town
OCCUPATION: Model
WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? I think I'd bring excitement and joy. I think people would have someone to come to and talk to and feel comfortable being around or to have a laugh with. I think I'm somebody everyone would take to.
WHY SHOULD SOMEBODY DATE YOU? I feel like the way I carry myself is very respectful and I think people take to that and once you show who you are to somebody you get it back tenfold. The way I am gives off a good enough energy for people to feel comfortable around me.
NAME: Nicole Samuel
AGE: 24
FROM: Aberdare, Wales
OCCUPATION: Accounts Manager
WHY ARE YOU SINGLE? I've been enjoying single life and the attention of different boys, it's fun. I've enjoyed being able to go on holiday with the girls and not having to worry about someone back home. All the girls are there texting in their room and I'm out till 4 in the morning living my best life.
WHAT IS SOMETHING NOT MANY PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT YOU? I became a world champion dancer in 2011, not many people know that. I was a professional street dancer.
NAME: Ciaran Davies
AGE: 21
FROM: Pencoed, South Wales
OCCUPATION: Surveyor
WHAT'S YOUR TYPE ON PAPER? Obviously looks but humour is a big thing for me, I'm a bit of a wind up so I want a girl who can give it back. Loyalty is another one for me: I think that's the most important thing to look for in a relationship.
WHAT IS SOMETHING NOT MANY PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT YOU? When I was in Malia on a boys holiday I pretended to be Liam Reardon from series 7 to get into a club because they wouldn't let us in. It worked and we ended up getting a private booth and free drinks all night.
NAME: Matilda Draper
AGE: 24
FROM: Beckenham
OCCUPATION: Recruitmant Consultant
WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'LL BRING? I want to bring sunshine to the Villa. I’m lighthearted and don’t take myself too seriously. If things get too serious in the Villa I’m going to throw in a little joke or a ‘would you rather’.
Jessica Spencer
NAME: Jessica Spencer
AGE: 25
FROM: London
OCCUPATION: Fashion Stylist
WHO DO YOU HAVE YOUR EYE ON IN THE VILLA? I have my eyes on Ayo, despite his connection with Mimii. I fancy Ayo so much. Wil also seems like a catch and someone I want to explore a connection with.
WHAT KIND OF ISLANDER ARE YOU GOING TO BE? I’m funny, flirty, sassy and ready to find love
Josh Sunday Oyinsan
NAME: Josh Sunday Oyinsan

WHO DO YOU HAVE YOUR EYE ON IN THE VILLA? All of them!! Mimii, Uma, Grace and Jess S. All of the girls there are beautiful.
WHAT KIND OF ISLANDER ARE YOU GOING TO BE? I am not afraid to speak my mind! I’m not afraid of treading on any toes…
