Love Island fans beg producers to axe star from villa after 'uncomfortable' row
Love Island fans have begged producers to remove Dejon from the show after they watched his 'uncomfortable' row with Meg, with some accusing him of 'gaslighting' her. In last night's episode of the ITV2 programme, the Islanders took part in a game called Knowing Me, Knowing You.
Each contestant was given a board to write down answers and the goal was for each couple to match with their partner's answers for each question. Many of them, including Shakira and Harry, did well but Dejon was annoyed after he and Meg gave differing answers on the first question.
The boys were soon asked which girl they would have coupled up with if their partners weren't in the villa. Meg was shocked when Dejon chose Yasmin despite the previous tension between them. It comes after the ITV show was hit with over 9000 Ofcom complaints.
They later discussed his answer by the fire pit, and Meg claimed he never shared this information with her before. He claimed he previously told her about his attraction towards Yas, but Meg disagreed. He soon asked her why she was "trying to make him look bad".
Fans said their row, during which he insinuated she was doing it all for the cameras, was 'hard to watch' and rushed to social media to call him out on his attitude towards her.
"As a collective, lets report Dejon to Ofcom, scary man," one user said and another posted: "I don't like meg in the slightest but that conversation where he manipulated, gaslighted and dismissed her was so so so uncomfortable and hard to watch. get this man out!"
One concerned user wrote: "Dejon steamrolling conversations and I need meg to find her voice. Don't like her. Don't support her. &&& that man is scary. But she can fight girls all day but not her man? Get the man out of the villa."
"'Blu tells dejon that meg isn't that popular outside the villa and suddenly dejon is picking fights with her," one fan pointed out.
Another added: "Dejon is very very very CALCULATED. Without fail every episode, he either mentioned camera's, causes a scene or makes sure it looks like him & Meg are winning couple material."
Meanwhile, tonight's episode will see Meg and Dejon fall out over the previous night's challenge again after she discovers Yas was initially going to write Dejon's name down as well.
Tensions remain high while the boys are tasked with cooking up a storm for date night.

Coronation Street icon to come back as Rovers Return landlady
Catherine Tyldsley, known for the role of Eva Price, is reportedly joining the ITV soap again to take on one of the most beloved roles in Weatherfield. It comes after Sally Ann Matthews, who plays recent pub landlady Jenny Connor, confirmed she would be leaving Corrie. A post shared by Catherine Tyldesley (@auntiecath17) Eva, who first arrived on the programme in 2011, will be following in the footsteps of former Rovers Return legends Liz McDonald, Bet Lynch and Annie Walker. A source told The Sun: 'It's one of the biggest jobs in soap, the landlady of the Rovers Return pub. "Bosses were desperate to get Cath back. "They came up with the perfect storyline with her being unveiled as the new landlady of the Rovers.' Corrie fans might remember Eva was last seen leaving the famous street in 2018 for a fresh start in France with her daughter Susie. This came after the heartbreaking death of her child's father, Aidan Connor (Shayne Ward). Following rumours of Catherine making her way back to Corrie earlier this year, fans began speculating if she could be the new Rovers Return landlady on Reddit, as the pub was put up for sale by Carla Connor (Alison King). In a discussion about who could be taking on the job of the adored watering hole, someone said on the r/coronationstreet page: 'I thought Catherine Tyldesley was coming back? If so, I reckon it could be her.'

'I imagine her and Glenda (Jodie Prenger) would put on so many fun bingo nights and the like. If not I'm sure the punter would come streaming in anyway to look dreamily into Eva's eyes while hearing absolutely nothing of what she's saying.' This viewer posted: 'I think it's Eva who is going to buy the else would she be coming back.'

Harry Hill says he was ‘absolutely merciless' in his determination to succeed
Hill, who gave up medicine for a career in comedy, was speaking as he appeared as a guest on BBC Radio 4's Desert Island Discs. 'I was absolutely driven,' he told host Lauren Laverne. 'I had gone from doing 80, 100 hours a week as a doctor, getting up at the crack of dawn. Suddenly I had all this time free during the day, so I really felt like I had something to prove. 'So I would get up and I would write jokes.' Hill said he would make constant calls to get bookings when he started doing stand-up in the early 1990s. 'I would just bug them and bug them,' he said. 'I was absolutely merciless in my pursuit of it. It's not the funniest people that get on, it's the pushiest. And I was pushy.' Hill, whose real name is Matthew Hall, said his first stand-up gig was at a Mexican restaurant in South Norwood, south London. 'My first gag got a laugh, and it completely threw me because I had been rehearsing it without laughs,' he told Laverne. But he recovered and continued his routine, and even got another booking from it. Hill, who won the Perrier Award for best newcomer at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 1992, said being a comedian means 'I can get away with just about any silly behaviour'. Hill, who created and presented Harry Hill's TV Burp on ITV from 2001 to 2012, said he takes time to prepare ahead of his comedy routines. 'I have to have an hour to myself,' he said. 'It's not a character, it is me. It is a persona, if you like. 'I have to pace up and down and work myself up, because if I don't do that it's not as funny.' Describing how he felt about being a doctor, he told Laverne about an incident soon after he qualified, when he had to break the news to a man that his wife had unexpectedly died during an operation. 'I was completely out of my depth,' he said. 'I told him and he started crying, and I started crying. I thought this is – this isn't good. What it makes you do is bottle up your emotions.' But he added: 'I wasn't a bad doctor.' Among the songs he chose as his desert island discs were Hey Bulldog by the Beatles, Life During Wartime by Talking Heads, and Gay Bar by Electric Six. Hill said a 'thick book you could use to kill small mammals' would be useful, and chose Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes. He said his luxury item would be a bucket and spade, because 'where's the fun of a sandy beach without the ability to make sandcastles?'
