Biggins bugged by creepy crawlies

He was welcomed by model Janice Dickinson and promptly thrown into a Jungle Jeopardy challenge featuring snakes, large spiders and a slime shower.

Dickinson refused to go near the first of five trials requiring her to put her hand into boxes filled with rats and then scorpions.

But Biggins fared better on the next challenge, catching two stars after being showered first by stinking slime and then with large bugs.

Dickinson collected a star by pushing her head into a box full of large spiders - bursting into a brief flood of tears with the shock - but failed to repeat her success with a box of snakes.

They were then told they could win a bonanza of five stars in an enclosed "critter dome".

While Dickinson immediately leapt out shrieking, Biggins stayed inside, managing to collect four stars as assorted bugs and what appeared to be sawdust was blown at him.

Earlier, Katie Hopkins was buried alive in her Bushtucker Trial with 20,000 cockroaches for company.

Hopkins again displayed the steely determination that got her through The Apprentice, sticking out the challenge for a full 10 minutes to earn her camp mates the maximum food allowance.

The trial was called Grave Danger and Hopkins was buried underground in a diamond-shaped coffin.

When presenters Ant and Dec warned her beforehand that she wouldn't be alone, Hopkins speculated on who might be joining her, saying hopefully: "A big man?"

The lid was closed and Hopkins was plunged into complete darkness.

"If you could have picked my worst nightmare and really wanted to punish me, this would probably be it," she said, but added: "I think it's time to take it like a man."

Twenty thousand cockroaches were then poured into the coffin.

"Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God. Whatever the f****** hell that is, I'm not liking it," she said.

She closed her eyes and tried to convince herself it was some sort of beauty treatment: "It's just a treatment. Oh my good God, please, if these come up my bits I'm going to be really angry. They smell as well. Oh my God, they're all over my a ," she complained.

"They're biting. It really hurts and they're up my bits as well."

Hopkins described the feeling as "like childbirth but worse" and yelled at the cockroaches: "Ow, you little b******, get off."

There was another shock in store as the coffin was lifted out of the ground to dangle 200 feet above a ravine.

The wooden case fell away to reveal a coffin made of Perspex.

It was then tipped up on its end but Hopkins remained unfazed.

"Well, at least I'm standing on some of the little s***s," she said.

When the 10 minutes was up she summed up her ordeal: "Not special. Not my favourite moment."

Back in camp, Rodney Marsh ranted in the Bush Telegraph: "The dynamic has changed dramatically, basically because of Janice.

"Janice is a spoilt prat and it's going to be a problem. She's poncy, she's posey, she's over the top. It's all selfish - me, me, me, me, me.

"So far our camp has been terrific and I think this is going to be a problem and I think there's going to be a problem between me and Janice."

Dickinson also poured scorn on Lynne Franks' claim to be the inspiration for the Jennifer Saunders' character in Absolutely Fabulous.

"She 'claims' she's the woman in Ab Fab," said Dickinson. "F***, no. I claim I'm Julia Roberts too."
