No Obstacle?
Day 65, 18:29
Saturday 31 July
The housemates have completed a grisly obstacle course - only to discover that their endeavours were for nothing.
Fixing their camouflage helmets and safety goggles firmly in place, the gang attempted to steady their nerves.
Facing a course that involved navigating a balance beam through a bed of nettles, a trough of manure, eight tyres and a tunnel of fish was bad enough. But the course had to be traversed after the housemates had been spun on a roundabout - and they had a total of five minutes to complete it.
"Ah s***!" said Jason surveying the obstacles. Even Stuart's usual enthusiasm was dampened and Nadia was clearly appalled.
"That's disgusting... do you think that fish is fresh?" asked Nadia, nose wrinkling at the smell.
"We could just not do it," ventured Daniel as he and Jason considered the consequences of failing to complete the task.
Climbing aboard the roundabout the housemates focussed as Stuart got the roundabout up to speed. The claxon sounded and Daniel dismounted to attempt the course.
After spinning in the opposite direction to steady himself, he mounted the beam and took several attempts to complete the walk, repeatedly falling into the nettles.
"It's hard, man!" said Daniel. "Well done, dude!" shouted Shell in support and on he went, diving under the net and into the trough of manure.
Wafting the entrance to the fish tunnel, he shimmied through the fishy mess to shouts of, "You love it, man!... The fishmonger is in town!" from Stuart.
"The smell! The smell!" wailed Nadia as Daniel got back on the roundabout.

| Nadia finds it tough going |

Looking distinctly green about the gills Nadia shrieked and yelped her way around the course, retching and coughing as she emerged from the fish tunnel.
"That was a good effort, Nadia," praised Stuart as Nadia retched on the ever-spinning roundabout.
Stuart bravely hit the course, crashing through the manure trough and nimbly dancing through the tyres.
"Come on, Wilson!" shouted Jason.
The housemates cheered delightedly as they all completed the course. Nadia instantly fled to the shower.
But there was worse to come as the housemates discovered that their efforts were in vain.
Come back soon to find out how they fared with their real task - downing a stomach-churning 10 shots of cod liver oil, salt water and fish gut milkshake between them...
Yuck.
