Surprisingly, and despite Brian’s constant complaints, the row was not about food.

Janet was making dinner and Brain broke wind close to her work area. Janet, who has clashed with Brian over his flatulence before, was not impressed and told the East 17 singer off.

It was the last straw for Brian who has been threatening to leave all day.

He stormed out, complaining that he was fed up with people treating him like a kid in front of millions of people.

Brian had previously said that he may walk after he felt he has raised enough money for his chosen charity.

“I don’t know how much longer I can do this,” he announced earlier. “I’m being serious. I need a f**king sandwich.”

More news on Brian’s exit soon.

"Brian will be a leader"

Vic and Brian treated the camp to an impromptu duet, lightening the mood after the drama of Sophie and Nat's dingdong.

The pair gave a spirited rendition of Shirley Bassey's Gold Finger.

Only time will tell if a new chart double act is born…

Brian Harvey has not minced his words about the food since his arrival at the I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Outta Here! camp.

But he was left spitting with disgust after the latest Bushtucker Trial, which resulted in only two meals for the group.

The former East 17 star was tasked with conquering the "House of Pies," a glass chamber containing pies.

His hands were then tied behind his back and his body sprayed with a substance that appealed to the one-and-a-half million flies in the box with him.

Inside the chamber were ten pies, including shepherds pie, apple pie and a cherry pie.

But other pies, Brian was told by Ant and Dec, contained "nasties".

Unknown to the shaven-headed star they included mealworms, cockroaches and green ants.

His task was to fish out a wooden star from each pie with his mouth and place it on a magnetic star attached to the side of the chamber.

Out of the two pies Brian picked, one contained "nasties," which were green ants.

But he quickly started to retch and heave and shouted: "No. Get me out of here!"

He collected two meals for the camp but volunteered to go without food that night due to his poor performance.


"Poor Brian"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In a supreme sacrifice, Brian offered to go without food after winning just two meals in a Bushtucker Trial involving nasty pies and over a million flies.

Famished Brian hasn't minced his words about the camp food since his arrival. But there was no doubt that he would have rather eaten his words than what was served up for him for the latest trial.

As he reached the jungle clearing Ant and Dec welcomed Brian to the House of Pies, a glass chamber containing a variety of pies, a rats and a few flies.

Brian put on a pair of goggles as the rules were explained. His hands were tied behind his back and his body was sprayed with a fly-attracting substance.

Inside the chamber were ten pies, including shepherd's pie, apple pie and cherry pie. Other pies, Brian was told, contained “nasties” – in other words, mealworms, cockroaches and green ants.

His task was to fish out a star from each pie with his mouth and place it on a magnetic star attached to the side of the chamber. He was given five minutes.

But he would also be joined in the tank by one and a half million flies.

Brian launched straight into the task, sticking his head into a custard pie and successfully grabbing the star with his teeth.

But the flies started to get inside his mouth and as attempted to spit them out the pie with the second star fell to the floor.

He managed to get the star out of the second pie and onto the floor of the chamber and then picked it up with his teeth.

Out of the two pies Brian picked only one containing the nasties, which were green ants. But he started to wretch, shouting: “No. Get me out of here.”

Once out Medic Bob gave him some water to rinse his mouth out.

Brian said: “It all hit home when them flies came out. They covered the pies. With the flies you just couldn't really get to them.”

Asked how he would feel going back with only two meals, he said: “I don't care what they say to be honest with you. I gave it my best but I had to get out mate. It was too much.”

But he volunteered to go without food that night and let the other campers eat.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Paul cooked up a meal fit for a king with the food supplies won by Janet in the Snake Strike trial.

Even whinging Brian couldn't complain after dining on the lobster extravaganza.

Will the hungry star return to his whining ways when the celebrities are forced to survive on basic rations after Brian's less than impressive performance in the innocuous sounding House of Pies Bushtucker Trial?

Maybe Brian should have swallowed his pride - and a few more nasty things besides – in the trial.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sharp-tongued Janet was left nursing numerous nips from a tank full of snakes after the third Bushtucker Trial – but bagged an incredible nine meals for the camp.

Janet was delighted to be out of the confines of the camp, telling Ant and Dec: “Thank you for getting me out, even if it's for something really horrible, because I can see the sky.”

Asked why she was voted to do the trial, she said “I was chosen because I'm a mouthy cow.”

She had ten minutes to do was find and manoeuvre ten numbered stars hidden in the tank full of snakes through the reptiles to deposit them on the other side of the box.

Janet was in no doubt that she must go ahead with the task – if only to stave off the hunger of her unlikely new found friend.

“I think Brian might lynch me if I don't go back with food – I've got to do it for Brian,” she said.

Janet successfully plucked star number one from the clutches of a small snake and had no problems with the second and third.

Stars four, five, six and seven were quickly taken care of but things took a turn for the worse as she went to grab the next star, hidden under a lid in a log.

As she went into pick it up the snake struck and bit her on the hand twice.

She decided to give up and move on to the next star, which again was secreted in a log.

Once more she was on the receiving end of a bite. This time Janet was not to be outdone and snatched up the penultimate star.

Star ten resulted in yet another needle-sharp nip but she shrugged it off and brought the last meal token home.

After asking Medic Bob for arnica for her punctured hand, she told Ant and Dec: “I know people say snakes are not venomous but when they bite you, it's not very nice.”

She returned to camp to tell a relieved bunch of celebs that they would be eating well that night.

Brian gave her the warmest welcome. As they hugged Janet told him: “I said I did it for Brian because he says the food is s*it.”

Brian’s tears

A tearful Brian entered the Bush Telegraph to share his feelings about his Nan 's death.

Admitting he was coping with jungle life, but finding it hard to deal with his loss, he said: “There's only one thing that's getting on top of me. It's one thing.”

When asked what it was Brian replied: “The obvious I suppose.”

Wiping away the tears he added: “I don't care what anybody thinks. I don't care… It's overpowering.”

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Paul has spoken to Brian about who he thinks will be the next King of England and what the Queen is really like behind closed doors.

When the former East 17 star asked about the future of the monarchy, Paul replied: “I think the future is William…a young king with a young family.”

He then joked that “King William and Queen Beyonce” had a nice ring to it.

Brian added: “Queen Britney…Queen Aguilera.”

“That's a bit of a mouthful,” was the former royal butler's jovial response.

When asked by the former East 17er whether the monarch is quite normal in the flesh, Paul responded: “Yes of course she is, behind closed doors. She's lovely.”

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The contestants were delighted to be rewarded with chocolate mix, milk and marshmallows for having completed the Celebrity Chest after a long trek by Sheila and Brian – well, all except Janet.

The camp's resident motormouth was less than enamoured with the gift, from pop group The Sugababes, saying: “We've got marshmallows. Oh terrific. It's crap. I don't want those stupid Sugarbabes if that's all they can come up with.”

Janet said it wasn't worth the effort and Brian agreed.

"It's a game for cretins," she said of the Celeb Chest hunt. "I signed up to come to the jungle, not to play brain-rotting games."

Later, in the Bush Telegraph, Joe talked about the incident.

He said: “That's the first time I've felt slightly uncomfortable since I got here. It was like The Lord of the Flies. Over a glass of chocolate.”

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The campers have been diligent in their checking of each other's nooks and crannies for the paralysis tick, which Medic Bob has warned them of.

Fran asked Joe to check his behind because, as he said: “You can check your own nuts but you can't see behind. You can use the mirror but you can't see s**t.”

Fran had been concerned but Joe reassured him after looking that there are: “no marks just nice little dimples.”

Brian then joined the two and they filled him in, telling him that tick checking needs to be done everyday.

Joe said: “You meet people one day and all of a sudden you are …”

“Looking in their a**e hole,” interrupted Brian

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brian upset Janet when he broke wind in the camp, provoking a heated discussion about how he was portraying himself.

On hearing the offending action she said: “For f***'s sake.”


Brian responded: “Don't you fart?”

Janet: “Not like that.”

Brian: “Why are you so disgusted by it anyway?

Janet: “I'm not so disgusted it's just is that how you want to portray yourself?”

But Brian retorted: “What's it got to do with you how I portray myself?”

Janet: “Is that how you want people at home to see you?”

Brian: “What's it got to do with you how I portray myself? You portray yourself how you want and I'll portray myself how I want.”

Later in the Bush Telegraph he said: “First it was smoking now it is farting. For f***'s sake man.”

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Completion of the treehouse raised questions amongst the celebs about the reasons for the task.

The addition of an extra large bed only added to the speculation.

Janet said: “Can I just point out that's not the bed for another person. That's for the poor sod in the hammock.”

Brian was not convinced: “You don't think there's somebody coming in?”

But Janet was adamant: “No definitely not. It's a palace. It's the penthouse.”

Despite this, rumours were rife about who it could be and around the fire the topic was discussed once again.

Former royal butler, Paul threw a couple of names into the mix by saying: “It's a couple… Torville and Dean.”

Nancy added: "They could bring in their ice skates as their luxury item.”

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Over tea, Natalie, Sophie and Brian discussed Janet's moods and both the girls were frank about the fact that she initially took some getting used to.

Brian agreed with the girls and despite the number of arguments he's had with Janet revealed a soft spot for her by saying: “I was a bit funny with her in the beginning but now I really like her.”

Elsewhere in the camp, Janet Street Porter has already rubbed her fellow contestants up the wrong way, with the Independent on Sunday's editor-at-large clashing with former Royal butler Paul Burrell and ex-East 17 frontman Brian Harvey.

She accused Burrell of being brainwashed during his time as butler to Princess Diana and sniped at Harvey for smoking.

Earlier, Janet clashed with one-time pop star Brian Harvey, 30, when he arrived late at the camp and lit a cigarette.

She grumbled: "Not another smoker, I don't believe it. I'm going to get bloody cancer." Brian later asked the Bush Telegraph: "Is Janet moody? She looks miserable.

"I don't really want to say those things... but first impressions and all that. I don't know if we're going to get on."
