The Third day in the Australian jungle and we find a starving, constipated but ever cheerful, singing, winging and bickering crowd of bedraggled contestants.

Scott set off cheerfully and determinedly to tackle his trial of the Jungle Boogie, to return with only ONE of the ten stars, after dancing (suspended above the ground) his way through a tune, with earth worms and crickets dropping on top of him from the silver disco ball above his head, into his full skirted (tight at ankles) disco suit, with disco lighted flashing on the floor at his feet. (To be honest, I thought he deserved more stars for his effort and length of time endured), the more vigorously he danced, the more they dropped. He seemed to be holding up very well but after the first tune was over, he just as determinedly declared that it was over for him as he had been bitten all over his body. He had attempted it for Mum!

The already strung out campers tried to hide their disappointment but their hunger showed by much frayed nerves. Jan and Phina set off to collect the food chest but returned with only two of the three keys needed to release the chest, after spending hours until dark, searching through a giant haystack, with the ever moaning and nasty Jan, finding no keys at all. In spite of this, on their return to camp, in darkness, Jan was quick to put the blame on Phina who she called dominating and bossy and her only fault being allowing herself to be bullied.

Poor Phina and all within earshot, had endured, the whole day of Jan’s rude remarks and moans of hunger, feeling sick, bites all over, headaches, skin like an alligator’s, hideous meal (she would rather eat elephant dun) and filthy nails. Jan was rewarded by being one of the two chosen for the next trial, Tree Top Terror.

She and Scott (second trial for both), in yellow boiler suits, will be teetering on a high wire ‘to hell’ to avoid the deadly drop below. We will have to switch our TVs on at the earlier time of 8pm tonight on UTV or TV3, to see how they get on. For the sake of the starving celebrities, we hope they will be returning with many stars and thus earning meals for their desperate co campers.
