The waterworks were well and truly turned on for day three in the jungle.

Down poured the rain from a heavy Australian sky, shrouding the hungry campers in gloom and doom.

The Bush Tucker Trial was a similarly wet affair with Killjoy and Baby Bear Joe padlocked under water. How we breathed a collective sigh of disappointment as Killjoy freed himself. Turns out the man also has a phobia of high bridges. I wonder if it is the sort of phobia that makes one want to jump… Here’s hoping.

And finally, as the girls reflected on their fun-filled relationships with footballers fast and fit, poor old Esther went all teary with fond memories of her husband. Nicola and Carly did their best to stem the flow.

As a small shallow river formed across Killjoy's bed, and Away Camp looked in danger of being deluged by flood, the camps combined and two merged seamlessly into one. Nothing fundamental changed – Brian remains the singularly dullest man on the planet, Dani and Killjoy incredulously sore losers.

In a jungle where real men are in short supply, Nicola might prove to be our salvation. Tough, straight-talking and robust, she is currently looking like the only king of the jungle.
