We've rounded up the craziest reality TV catfights over the years, including the Georgia Steel and Ellie Brown Love Island spat

Sometimes, the BEST telly moments just can't be scripted.

Reality TV - we love it! And we are totally guilty of enjoying the dramas that inevitably come with it.

Over the years we've seen a lot of drama in TOWIE, Made in Chelsea, Love Island and of course Celebrity Big Brother. Despite being a fan of the showmances and the banter we can't lie, the most entertaining bit of reality TV is definitely the rows and fights.

So, from cat fights to sharp-tongued verbal arguments, we rounded up some of the most memorable TV fights ever to grace our televisions.

Georgia Steel and Ellie Brown

Probably the most dramatic night in the Love Island 2018 villa, hell broke loose when Georgia Steel returned from a date with Jack Fowler. Jack told his then-girlfriend Laura Anderson (who was also Georgia's BFF) that Georgia had pulled him in for a kiss but Georgia 100% denied this to Laura. She continued to lie about the kiss all night (well, for the whole series actually) but Ellie Brown was having none of it. She shouted at Georgia and called her out for always banging on about how 'loyal' she is. The final blow that silenced everyone was when Ellie called Georgia an 'ugly c**t'. YIKES. Even Ellie's boyfriend Charlie Brake said she went too far. The pair never fully recovered their friendship and Georgia said Ellie needed to go and 'wash her mouth out'. It's worth mentioning that Georgia has since 'fessed up to the kiss and apologised to Laura.

Who could EVER forget Fight Night? The original Big Brother bust-up happened in season 5. Pretty much the whole house was divided and involved - with Victor Ebuwa and Emma Greenwood throwing trays at each other. It was IN-SANE.

It was actually quite sad to see this bromance hit rocky waters. The girl who got between them (it's always over a girl, right?!) was Lucy Watson. We were glad to see that they quickly reconciled.

And when Samira finally DID find love with Frankie Foster, the public cruelly voted him out just days later. Samira broke down, crying, "I just don't understand."NEITHER DO WE, SAMIRA.She later left the villa for her man but it then came to light that he apparently cheated...Tear tally: 9 (mostly because she also had to put up with Alex in the first week)

Opening up to her boyfriend she broke down in tears and revealed her insecurities about her former jobs. She explained, "If you had a son that was good at everything like you are - smart and intelligent - would you want them to come back with a girl that's done glamour modelling and stripping. "You'd want them to get with a girl who is smart; like a doctor or sensible Sally who works in an office... You know that I'm embarrassed about my past and I know if my brother brought back a girl that has done the jobs I've done - it's not ideal."Luckily, Wes was there to comfort his lady and reassured her.Tear tally: 8 (because after opening up about her insecurities we all became Team Megan)
