The housemates have pocked ten grand after completing their two-part Saturday challenge.

The first part saw the housemates complete an obstacle course set up in the garden composed of some of the challenges from previous weeks.

Jason, Nadia, Daniel and Shell sat on the roundabout while Stuart spun it around.

Daniel then had to walk along a hanging beam over a bed of nettles, climb over a cow manure pool, and make his way through a fish gut-filled tunnel.

Jason was next up to complete the course, followed by Nadia (who was nauseous while spinning on the roundabout), Shell and Stuart.

Whence completed, all merry housemates climbed back onto the spinning roundabout and awaited their prize.

But the housemates stood in disbelief after they learnt their efforts were in vain.

The second part was the rest real test and more gruesome still with nominees downing a disgusting concoction of fishy shots in the Dairy Room.

With half an hour to complete the task, housemates had to down all 10 shots.

Nadia was first to the Big Brother Bar. She downed salt water and then cod liver oil but retched and vomited in the garden.

Daniel downed the salt-water shot and kept down the contents.

Shell tried to down the fish guts concoction but balked at the last.

Stuart stepped into the breach, downing three fish guts shots and a cod liver oil shot.

Jason finished off downing the final three shots of fish guts. Brave man.

The others watched in horror on the plasma screen in the living area.

The housemates were a little worse for wear but up in cash terms with the prize fund sitting pretty at ?63,500.
