Ant reads: “Tonight, three of you will face a Bushtucker Trial called ‘The Coffin of Cacophony.’ You will be locked in underground crates with 10,000 jungle cockroaches, a hungry water monitor, and a sound system playing ‘I’m a Celebrity…’ on a broken loop. The other celebrities must eat a blended ‘Full English Breakfast’ smoothie – with fermented spider garnish.”
Mark Wright. His reaction: “YES! BRING IT!” (then quietly vomits behind a bush). End of VP3 – Day 3 Next time: Dougie finds a snake in his sleeping bag. He names it Brian.
