Married at First Sight has been hit with a flurry of Ofcom complaints as fans fumed over an alleged bullying row.

Channel 4 viewers raised 341 complaints related to alleged bullying behaviour broadcast on November 13. Fans were unhappy with brides Holly and Polly, claiming they displayed unacceptable behaviour towards Hannah and Adam during the first reunion episode.

They also found issues with the experts failing to address this behaviour, and the use of offensive language during these interactions.

A further 187 complaints were made after the second part of the reunion aired on November 14, which saw all the couples sit down with the experts, Paul Brunson, Mel Schilling and Charlene Douglas, for the final time.

The complaints related to alleged bullying behaviour from Holly and Polly towards Hannah, and the experts failing to address this behaviour.

During the episode, the experts asked Hannah about the events of Ladies Night which featured a dramatic showdown between her and Holly Ditchfield.

The gym owner responded: "I walked into the room on Ladies Night and got called a s**g and 'look what the cat dragged in' and I just wouldn't treat another woman like that."

Holly hit back: "Can't cope with someone playing the victim when they're not owning their own actions, it's giving weak. I've only ever reacted to your behaviour, I don't do things out of spite like a mean girl, I'm not a mean girl, I'm just very honest.

"Because she's disrespected me so much and pecked and pecked and pecked she deserves everything she gets."

She declared: "Talk about my children and I'm coming for war," later adding: "I thought, you know what, you're f***ing having it".

It comes after an episode broadcast on November 7 prompted a staggering 237 Ofcom complaints, once again on what was perceived as bullying from Holly towards Hannah.

That particular episode threw the spotlight on the brides as they enjoyed a girls' night out, spiced up by visits from those who had already bowed out of the experiment.

The drama ignited when Hannah, who had previously left the show after failing to make it work with groom Stephen, was greeted by Holly's quip: "Look what the cat's dragged in."

Holly later confronted Hannah over allegations of flirtation with other men since her departure, however, she insisted she hadn't flirted with anyone on the show.

The dramatic exchange quickly escalated, forcing Hannah to walk away as she accused Holly of talking and shouting at her.
