He even said he would face disciplinary action for his rant, as he should remain impartial on the housemates.
Rylan tweeted: "I’m gonna get in trouble for this , I’m all for no interfering no outside contact etc .... BUT SHOW THE HOUSEMATES THE FOOTAGE. There I’ve said it. Praying they will."
It comes as fans were left fuming this evening after Roxanne made a series of claims against Ryan in tonight's episode.
The Emmerdale actress – who sensationally quit the show earlier today – claimed that Ryan “punched her repeatedly” and hit her “four or five times in the ribs”.

Viewers took to social media and branded her a liar as they watched in utter disbelief, after seeing footage of the play fight.
The controversial 'punch' has gripped the internet and may have seriously dented Roxanne's reputation, with some saying she could struggle to get work after the drama.
One person wrote: “I know they edit the show to pick and choose what to show on tv. But from what I saw it wasn’t editited and Roxanne is a liar and fake tears #cbb.”
Another added: “Roxanne is a compulsive liar... it’s actually ridiculous #CBB.”
Celebrity Big Brother's Ryan Thomas given an official warning over his play fight with Roxanne Pallett
While someone else tweeted: “Oh my god I've never been so angry at a tv programme in my life!!!!!!!! Roxanne is a sneaky evil LIAR she should be ashamed of herself #CBB.”
The public’s outcry begun after Thursday night's episode when the 'punch' was shown, however it has picked pace with each episode, and the aftermath unfolded.
Viewers also started to pick holes in Roxanne's story, particularly which side of her body Ryan had supposedly hit.
In the original footage, the ex-Corrie star was seen to pretend jab the left side of her body.
But fans quickly picked up that the actress later on held the right side of her rib cage – leading to speculation she was making it up.
The 35-year-old then demanded the producers remove Ryan, 34, from the house, but Big Brother told her after reviewing the footage, he would instead be given a formal warning over the incident.
