ARGUMENTATIVE housemate Alexandra has been removed from the house after allegedly threatening fellow contestants with punishment from “gangster friends”.

The single mum had already been warned about her intimidating behaviour, but apparently stepped over the line during a conversation with Ipswich-born housemate Darnell.

According to Channel 4, she told him that “personal offence is never forgotten” and that her “gangster friends” had some “instructions to carry out”.

She also referred to getting out of the house and seeing fellow contestants' friends and family.

Her comments were overheard by nemesis Rex, dancer Dennis and kindergarten nurse Rebecca who, after a discussion, said they found them threatening.

Rex then told Big Brother of their concerns in the diary room.

Alex, one of the show's most unpopular housemates ever, was then removed from the house yesterday.

As a result this week's eviction, which was between Mario and Alexandra, has been cancelled.
