Alex and George
Alex Best had recently separated from her husband George, once Britain's greatest and most charismatic soccer player.
Alex opened her heart and told the others of her nightmare life with her alcoholic husband. She explained how George made abusive phone calls to her at all hours and smashed up her car and house.
Jordan asked why and Alex explained: “Because I was two hours late home.”
She also described how she went to another woman’s house, went in, saw George's bag, went upstairs and opened the only door that was closed: “I went in. He was lying on the bed. There were 12 bottles of champagne and wine.”
While Alex was in the jungle George failed a roadside breath-test.
The bitches about Alex
Jordan said: “I bet she’s a cow at home. It’s always the quiet ones.”
Kerry added: “The quiet ones are the worst”.
A Tunnel of Trouble
Alex crawled into the first plastic container - amongst several eels swimming in some water. "Ugh!" she screamed as one made for her head. She manouvered two stars with her mouth to earn two meals.
The second tank contained fly pupae and mealworms. Production staff poured gunk over her head as she crawled inside. Two more stars!
The third tank was infested with cockroaches and spiders. Another two stars.
The fourth tank contained feathers. Alex found two stars but the second one was outside the time limit.
The final tank contained some nsty looking snakes. Alex preferred not to share their accommodation.
She had earned seven out of ten meals and emerged covered in feathers, gunk and cockroaches.
As she walked back to the camp, Dec shouted: "Don't flap your arms. You might take off!"
Lord Brocket helped her clean up in the pond. "Have you got a bra on underneath?" he enquired. "No. Well. Take it off anyway."
