Morag was violently ill after drinking contaminated water (Picture: Channel 4)
Treasure Island with Bear Grylls almost lost contestant Morag after she drank contaminated water in the final episode.
The island’s water supply was contaminated by seawater after the tide came in unexpectedly.
While part of the group went to hunt down an alternative supply, Morag complained she was incredibly thirsty and had to drink some of the water, despite Manu warning her that it was unsafe.
She claimed that the water didn’t taste ‘that bad’, but she was in for a shock later in the day when she fell violently ill.
The 58-year-old began vomiting constantly and confessed she had ‘s**t myself’, and had to be comforted by fellow contestant Cat.
The others had to call the safety team to find out what to do, and they told them she had to ride it out overnight.
Morag, clearly distressed, demanded to be taken off the island.

Her ordeal continued throughout the night (Picture: Channel 4)
Explaining the situation to camera, Cat said: ‘There’s bile coming out of her, there’s all this green crap, our nearest hospital ain’t near.’
Thankfully the next day she was over the worst of it and was able to rejoin the group.
Mo told the others: ‘You do not want to experience what I’ve just been through. Explosive both ends. Jesus wept.’
When another contestant asked her if she’s ever had a hangover before, she replied: ‘Not where it’s like projectile vomit and s**t at the same time.’
She said away from the group: ‘I borrowed two or three different people’s pants. I’ve s**t on them. Oh my god you don’t wanna know.’
The episode also saw the group finally manage to trap and kill a goat for a meal, and manage to find the final box of cash which was split between all of them.
Bear got in touch and said they had done ‘incredibly well’ and would be leaving the island in 24 hours.
Marco, Jack and Ivor generously gave Cat an extra £1000, while Jack also gave Irene and Mo a share of his money too.
The Island with Bear Grylls airs Sundays at 9pm on Channel 4.

Nick found himself in hot water on the show (Picture: ITV)
Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? viewers found themselves screaming at the TV on Sunday night after a teacher competing on the show didn’t know what a tog rating was.
Nick Parkhouse, a new father from Croydon left viewers despairing after not knowing the answer to the question: ‘A tog rating is given to which of these household items?’
Surely anyone who has ever changed a bed should know this, right?
Asked to choose between a refrigerator, saucepan, suitcase and duvet, Nick found himself stumped and using his Ask the Audience lifeline on only his fourth question for £1000. Not ideal…
With 94% of the studio audience correctly voting for the duvet, Nick realised that he probably should’ve known the answer, admitting to Jeremy Clarkson: ‘Doesn’t make me look very good, does it?’
And it seems the viewers at home actually agreed with Nick, echoing one comment that asked: ‘He’s a Teacher so how on earth does he not know the answer this simple question?’
Don't know what was more worrying. The fact he didn't know it was duvet, or the fact 3% of the audience thought it was refrigerator#WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire
‘Don’t know what was more worrying,’ another added, ‘The fact he didn’t know it was duvet, or the fact 3% of the audience thought it was refrigerator.’
Also a fair point.
Adding insult to injury (and really not helping himself), the dad-of-one dug himself into an even bigger hole after justifying his lack of knowledge by saying that his wife Charlotte, who was supporting him in the audience ‘does all the housework.’ Yikes.
Fans were pretty enraged by the teacher’s poor choice of words, with one writing: ‘Forgot we were in the Victorian era’ while another said ‘we’re not in 1950 anymore mate, pull ya f***in weight!’
He has a 3 month old at home?? And his wife does all the housework?? Poor thing must be shattered. Bet he hogs the duvet too, all 20togs of it #whowantstobeamillionaire
Later using his Phone a Friend to lifeline to ask his mum what a monkey-nut was (something the viewers also were annoyed by), Nick miraculously made it to the £16,000 mark and is set to return next week to continue his game.
We all have our knowledge blind spots: even teachers!
Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? airs Sundays at 8pm on ITV.

Paddy and Georgina get emotional (Picture: Channel 4)
Newcomer to The Circle, Paddy, just opened up to Georgina about his cerebral palsy and fans can’t handle how emotional the conversation got.
It all came about after contestants began playing a game called Paddy’s Picks, where they are given a theme and can select a photo from their private albums to match it, before Paddy decides which player’s picture was best.
In one of the categories, called No Filter, Georgina – who has Crohn’s – ends up sharing a photo of herself in a hospital bed.
Paddy remarks: ‘It takes courage to put a picture like that up.’
Later in the episode, he decides to start a private chat with Georgina to tell her that very sentiment.
He tells Georgina: ‘I think we could have a lot in common in terms of obstacles we’ve had to overcome. That picture you posted last night of you in the hospital was brave.’
Paddy is then unsure whether or not to open up about his own disability, but decides to in the end.

He continues: ‘I know how hard it is to talk about your condition when people ask. I know this because I have cerebral palsy in my legs. I haven’t told people yet but felt I could trust you with this.’
Georgina is taken aback by the revelation, as Paddy hasn’t previously chosen to share any photos clearly showing his cerebral palsy to the group.
They both start crying.
She messages back: ‘May I ask why you feel you want to hide it from the group? It can remain our secret, but I don’t want you to feel like it’s something that you have to keep quiet.’
Paddy responds: ‘It’s not that I’m ashamed or scared. It’s that I wanted to feel what it would be like for once to just be me and not be “that disabled guy”‘.
Fans immediately took to social media to share how emotional watching the scene made them.
One tweeted: ‘I cried when he told Georgina about his disability. When are humans gonna stop labelling each other and just see everyone as equal humans?’
While another wrote: ‘Absolutely loved that chat between Georgina and Paddy, and the reason why this show is so different from Big Brother. When you are not face to face, it can lead to the best conversations because you are genuinely being yourselves.’
Then another tweeted: ‘Genuinely powerful discussion of the Patient Experience of Georgina’s Crohns & Paddy’s Cerebral Palsy.’
The Circle continues Monday at 10pm on Channel 4.

Will Jack and Beth have better luck this time round? (Picture: Channel 4)
The Circle have dealt one hell of a devilish twist with Jack and Beth becoming the first double dumping of the series – only for them to go back in as a new player.
Jack, who has been playing as himself, and Beth, who traded in her model looks for ‘more approachable, girl next door persona’ (whatever that means), came in at the same time, only to be eliminated two days later after failing to make an impression on the rest of the players.
But now in a twist, they’re getting a new lease of life – as a 62-year-old dog lover named Joyce.
After the public voted for them to remain in the game under a new persona, instead of a new couple who were going to come in as someone else.
The couple were given the opportunity after automatic elimination from the game for being the lowest ranked of all the players.
Meeting each other face-to-face, Jack got a bit of a shock when he finally met ‘Beth’ – and she was a completely different person to the one in her photos.
How will the game react to Joyce? (Picture: Channel 4)
…Which is made even more awkward seeing as they were flirting the day before (but then again Jack flirts with everything).
Now they’ve moved into Richard Madeley’s old flat, setting up home together for the foreseeable as the first ever pair to appear as one contestant on the show.
Can they manage to evade detection and stay in the game a little longer this time?
Even worse, are they going to be able to survive living in such close quarters without killing each other in the process?
The Circle continues tomorrow at 10pm on Channel 4.

Jason Behr is coming back to Roswell (Pictures: Getty/REX)
Roswell, New Mexico just announced original 1999 cast member Jason Behr will feature in the 2019 rebooted series.
To break it down: Roswell originally aired between 1999 and 2002. Last year, The CW rebooted the series and premiered season one of Roswell, New Mexico in January this year.
Now, Jason Behr – who played alien in disguise Max Evans in the original series – will be joining season two, but his new role is currently ‘top secret’, according to Entertainment Tonight.
When the original show aired, the character of Max Evans was a high school student. But in Roswell, New Mexico, the character has joined the Chaves County Sheriff’s Department.
Executive producer Carina Adley MacKenzie said: ‘We’re very excited that Jason will be joining us for a multi-episode arc.’
She added: ‘It’s only fitting that he’s playing a (currently top secret) character with deep ties to Roswell, New Mexico’s history.
‘Working with him has already been such a special experience for all of us – particularly when [Roswell co-star] Shiri Appleby was on set to direct him.
Original cast of Roswell (Photo: Getty Images)
‘I was such a huge fan of Roswell as a kid, so having their stamp of approval – not to mention their expertise and advice – has really meant the world to me, the cast and the crew,’ she added.
In April, the series was renewed for a second season.
Jason was nominated for two Saturn awards for his role in Roswell. In 2004 he had a starring role alongside Sarah Michelle Gellar – who he had previously worked with for one episode of Buffy The Vampire Slayer – in the horror film The Grudge.
It was on that set that he met his wife, KaDee Strickland, the star of Secret And Lies, and the pair now have a baby boy.
The premise of the show is based on the conspiracy theory of an alien spaceship landing in Roswell in 1947.

Their Kill Bill routine failed to impress, leaving Kevin and Anneka bottom of the leaderboard with 11 points and in the dance off.
Judges voted to save David James and Nadiya Bychkova instead, but that didn’t stop Stacey celebrating Kevin in a sweet post she shared to her Instagram story, following the result.
She insisted it is just as important to show your support when contestants get knocked out, as it is when they’re doing well on the show.
Stacey said Anneka was ‘lucky’ to have been partnered with Kevin (Picture: Instagram)
Stacey told fans: ‘Kev and Anneka got knocked out this weekend and I just want to say I am so proud of both of them, but particularly Kevin because I just think he is the most incredible teacher.’
A little biased (obviously), Stacey added that Anneka was ‘lucky’ to have been partnered with her boyfriend Kevin.
‘It’s very easy to be proud of someone when you are winning and flying high and its all going brilliantly, but it’s also very important to tell them they are wicked when they are second to get knocked out. So yes, well done,’ she said.

Stacey had been partnered with pro dancer Kevin on Strictly in 2018 and they went on to win the show, taking home the coveted Glitterball trophy.
Following the breakdown of her relationship with ex Sam Tucknott, it was revealed Stacey and Kevin are dating.
The duo are usually pretty private when it comes to their romance – with the odd relationship update appearing on social media from time to time – but Stacey has said she and Kevin are very happy.
She told The Guardian: ‘Kev and I agreed not to go into too much detail about our private lives because you can’t really indulge that and then ask for privacy.
‘That’s why we turned down interviews that offered us tens of thousands of pounds. What I am happy to say is Kev’s amazing. I’m happy, life happens. I’ve got an amazing career and I’m very lucky.’

Holly Marie Combs and Alyssa Milano have once again shared a heartfelt hug on our screens as sisters, but with the backdrop of a hospital in Grey’s Anatomy rather than at the Halliwell manor of Charmed.
Holly and Alyssa guest star in an upcoming episode of the medical drama as sisters who arrived at Pac North to check on their other sibling, who is apparently not played by Shannen Doherty nor Rose McGowan – rude.
‘We’re sisters’, the pair say to each other in a sneak peek of the episode released by ABC in which they attempt to figure out the circumstances that led to their sister Heather Peterson’s injury at a construction site.
Holly who played Piper and Alyssa who played Phoebe in the hit nineties supernatural series are reuniting as part of ABC’s Cast From the Past, a special week of episodes that reunites the casts of beloved TV shows.
Sisters forever (Picture: ABC)
The episode, which airs on Thursday, also sees the two sisters reunited with former Charmed executive producers Krista Vernoff and Andy Reaser.
Other reunions that will happen on Grey’s include the cast of Cheers on The Goldbergs, the cast of The Drew Carey Show on American Housewife and the cast of Girlfriends on black-ish.
Gimme!

The first trailer as well as some photos from Star Trek: Discovery Season Three were released during the Star Trek Universe panel at New York Comic Con and wow it looks good.
According to a new synopsis for the season, ‘After making the jump in the second season finale, season three of Star Trek: Discovery finds the U.S.S. Discovery crew dropping out of the wormhole and into an unknown future far from the home they once knew.
‘Now living in a time filled with uncertainty, the U.S.S. Discovery crew, along with the help of some new friends, must together fight to regain a hopeful future.’
Star Trek: Discovery stars Sonequa Martin-Green (Cmdr. Michael Burnham), Michelle Yeoh (Philippa Georgiou), Doug Jones (Cmdr. Saru), Anthony Rapp (Lt. Cmdr. Paul Stamets), Mary Wiseman (Ensign Sylvia Tilly), and Wilson Cruz (Dr. Hugh Culber).
Judging by what we’ve seen so far it looks like Trekkers are in good hands.

But at the end of it all another couple was shown the ballroom door – so whose dancing days are over?
Here’s who was eliminated on Sunday night’s show…
Who left Strictly Come Dancing last night?
Sunday night’s elimination show saw Anneka Rice and Kevin Clifton become the second couple to exit the 2019 series.
The Strictly Come Dancing challenge is over for Anneka (Picture: BBC)
The pair lost out after finding themselves in the dance-off with David James and Nadiya Bychkova – who were in the bottom two for the second week in a row.
And once again the judges chose to save David and Nadiya, with all four opting to keep them in the competition after they had reprised their Batman-themed American Smooth and Anneka and Kevin had once again performed their Kill Bill-inspired Charleston.
‘To be honest, I’d have saved David and Nadiya,’ the TV veteran said afterwards.
‘I’ve just loved this whole thing; I’ve not one negative about the whole experience. We’ve worked really hard, I’m covered in bruises. I love this man; it’s been a joy to have that honour, that privilege of learning to dance.
It’s a whole new world to me Tess. I love all that gang up there! Now I’ve got 11 and a half (dance) moves! My son is getting married next year, I’m determined to be able to shuffle onto the dance floor and not do my usual thing of handing out the canapes.’
Anneka and Kevin scored just 11 points for their Kill Bill routine (Picture: BBC)
It’s the earliest departure from the series ever for Kevin Clifton, who since joining the show in 2013 has only missed out on the final once, when he partnered Susan Calman in 2017.
The Grimsby-born dancer has previously danced all the way to the end with the likes of Frankie Bridge and Louise Redknapp – but finally got his hands on the Glitterball last year when he partnered series champion Stacey Dooley.
Who else has left Strictly Come Dancing 2019 so far?
Strictly Come Dancing continues on BBC One next Saturday night at 6.40pm.

Beth and Jack react to having to catfish as ‘Joyce’ (Picture: Channel 4)
The Circle shook things up by automatically blocking the two lowest ranking contestants, Jack and Beth.
But what the other contestants don’t know is: They’re now teaming up and playing together to catfish as 62-year-old Joyce.
So what do you need to know from the latest episode? Here’s the lowdown on what happened.
Paddy Picks in power move
The episode started off with pizza and a party, while the contestants danced alone to Britney Spears.
Cut to the music ending and Tim adorably asking: ‘Was that Beyonce or something?’
Tim and Paddy dance to Britney Spears (Picture: Channel 4)
The party then heated up with a friendly game to get to know newbie Paddy.
It worked like this: Each contestant had to enter a photo of their own (that no one else in the game had seen before) into different categories like ‘Sexy’, ‘Funny’ and ‘No Filter’.
After each player submitted their photo to The Circle group chat, Paddy had the power to grant one of them as the winner of that category.
The lovable Irish lad chose Ella riding two dolphins as the winner in the ‘Funny’ category, while Jack won the ‘Sexy’ category with a photo of himself shirtless in a towel.
But it was the ‘No Filter’ category that pulled at everyone’s heart strings and really moved Paddy.
(Picture: Channel 4)
Georgina, who has Crohn’s disease – uploaded a photo of herself with a breathing tube. As soon as Paddy saw it, he remarked to himself: ‘It takes courage to put a picture like that up.’
There was no doubt in Paddy’s mind that Georgina was the winner.
Their prize? The winning contestants got to keep their winning photos in their profile.
Dating disaster stories
In true Ella style, she wanted to cut through the boring small talk between the contestants and spice things up by asking Beth and Brooke if they had any dating horror stories.
Brooke goes first and regales the group chat with a story about a guy who lied about his age, job and living situation
She then jokes: ‘You could say I was slightly catfished but it wouldn’t be the first time #JaysMum’
Beth goes next and underwhelms the group with another catfish story.
Ella (Picture: Channel 4)
Then Ella takes the cake with the ultimate dating horror story.
‘I once used a guy’s thumb print whilst he slept to get into his phone and book a taxi because my phone had died,’ Ella revealed. ‘I then didn’t speak to him again #HumpAndDump’
Omg Ella.
Paddy and Georgina make the nation cry
Next came the sweetest conversation between Paddy and Georgina about living with their disabilities.
Paddy took the opportunity to tell Georgina he thought her posting the photo in the hospital bed was ‘brave’.
He then decided to open up to her about his own disability – a fact he had deliberately held back from telling the other contestants.
Paddy tells Georgina: ‘I think we could have a lot in common in terms of obstacles we’ve had to overcome. That picture you posted last night of you in the hospital was brave.’
He continues: ‘I know how hard it is to talk about your condition when people ask. I know this because I have cerebral palsy in my legs. I haven’t told people yet but felt I could trust you with this.’

Georgina is taken aback by the revelation and they both start crying.
She messages back: ‘May I ask why you feel you want to hide it from the group? It can remain our secret, but I don’t want you to feel like it’s something that you have to keep quiet.’
Paddy responds: ‘It’s not that I’m ashamed or scared. It’s that I wanted to feel what it would be like for once to just be me and not be “that disabled guy”‘.
Beth and Jack team up to become Joyce
At the end of the episode, it’s revealed Beth and Jack scored the lowest ratings in the latest ranking of the contestants so in a twist, they’re both immediately blocked from The Circle.
The pair pack their bags and head to the Inner Circle to meet each other for the first time.
Jack discovers that Beth has been using someone else’s photos but remarks he fancies her.
The Circle then reveal the public voted to keep both Beth and Jack in the game.
(Picture: Channel 4)
The pair then make their way to their new shared apartment and get to know their surroundings (no, they’re not sharing a bed).
Then it’s time to find out who they’re going to be going back into the game as, as they nervously wait to see who pops up.
Cut to 62-year-old Joyce popping up on screen, holding her adorable puppy.
The two react in horror as they start to piece together exactly how they’re going to pull it all off.
Good luck, guys.
The Circle continues Monday at 10pm on Channel 4.

Vic loves Phoebe as much as we do (Picture: Getty Images)
Victoria Beckham is a girl after our own heart as she’s declared her ‘obsession’ with Phoebe Waller-Bridge and she couldn’t be more relatable right now.
The former Spice Girls singer shared the nation’s love for Fleabag and, we’re guessing, is just as devastated as us that the BBC One series is over for good.
While we questioned our own obsession with Phoebe and Fleabag, Victoria’s made us all feel a little bit better about it by sharing her own love for the lead star.
Speaking to This Morning, Victoria said: ‘The other day actually, I met Phoebe Waller-Bridge who I was quite obsessed with.’
Erm, thanks for making us jealous Vic. Wonder what Vic thinks of the Hot Priest…
The fashion designer continued: ‘I love Fleabag, obsessed with her. So, the fact that I got to meet her was really, really exciting.’
No doubt the feeling was mutual.
Vic has no problem getting older (Picture: WireImage)
Victoria, 45, also opened up about her determination to grow old gracefully, as they say, and embrace her age.
The former popstar admits that she’s saying no to cosmetic surgery right now, simply because she’s ‘fine with growing older’.
Although she seems to have forgotten that she had a boob job back in the noughties.
She explained: ‘I’m fine with growing older. I’m not trying to look any younger at all. I just wanna look good for my age.
‘I wanna look like the best version of myself. I wanna look after what I have. I don’t really want to change anything. And I’m okay with that. I like how getting older feels.’
Vic added: ‘I’m okay with how it looks, because it is what it is. Everybody is going to get older. [But] I don’t love how it [getting older] sounds.’
Let’s face it, Vic hasn’t really aged much since her Spice Girls heyday of the ‘90s, has she?

Most may know Piers Morgan isn’t a fan of the vegan diet, and he made that very clear when he met vegan strongman Patrik Baboumian today.
Or, rather, a strongman who is a vegan, perhaps.
As 40-year-old Patrik – who won the title of Germany’s Strongest Man in 2011 – prepared to pick up four people on Good Morning Britain on Monday morning, including presenters Laura Tobin and Richard Arnold, Piers wanted to get into the merits of a vegan diet.
But he was also keen to point out what he thought were the shortcomings, which follows on from his previous thoughts on the diet, including that time he raged over Gordon Ramsay’s decision to go vegan.
To Piers this morning, he wanted to know whether or not Patrik became strong through eating meat, seeing as he wasn’t vegan for the first two-and-a-half decades of his life
‘You can’t really say that. The thing is, your body needs protein, right, so if you stop eating protein you’re going to crumble,’ Patrik proceeded to explain to Piers.
‘So if there was anything in meat my body needs, it’s been more than a decade since I ate meat for the last time. Nothing in my body…’
Patrik defended his diet (Picture: ITV/Good Morning Britain)
And then he went and lifted four people (Picture: ITV/Good Morning Britain)
‘Your residual strength…’ Piers interrupted.
Patrik replied: ‘No, not really,’ but the GMB presenter hit back: ‘For two-thirds of your life you’ve been eating meat.’
As he went on, Piers challenged the bodybuilder, and TV personality James Wilks, who was also on the show, whether or not there were any strongmen/women who had always been vegan, before he said ‘no one was a vegan 20 years ago’.
He had a lot of questions (Picture: ITV/Good Morning Britain)
Susanna Reid, though, his ever balanced co-host, noted with a laugh: ‘People have been vegan longer than Greggs have been making sausage rolls…’
Before Patrik mustered up his strength, Piers wanted to continue to challenge his choice of diet, as he suggested a lot of vegans are ‘aggressive’ in their opinions of the diet and those who alternatively eat meat.
‘Joking apart, I’ve got no problem with people eating whatever diet they want to eat,’ he began. ‘My only problem is vegans can be aggressive [in telling people].’
As Patrik lifted up four adults, he exclaimed to Piers: ‘Are you convinced now?!
We think he was convinced…for now.
Good Morning Britain airs weekdays 6am on ITV.

The Whisperers are in uprising but a new member of their pack could tear them apart in more ways than one in the teaser for next week’s Walking Dead.
We Are The End Of The World looks set to focus on the lives of the Whisperers once again, with the team beginning to divide amid the pressure of survival.
Focusing on Alpha (Samantha Morton) and Beta’s (Ryan Hurst) backstory, the pair are seen in an intense discussion as the brutish Beta runs a knife over Alpha’s bald head.
As Beta dominates over Alpha, he tells her: ‘We are far from the enemy, their fear will subside. It’s time that the pack returns.’
Giving her back her Whisperer mask (which, for the uninitiated, is made of human skin and hair so they look like a Walker…grim) it seems that the ruthless leader may have a new thorn in her side.
‘The others have spoken of the life they saw,’ Beta continues. ‘She unsettles the pack.’
Alpha then assures: ‘There is clarity amid the chaos. Do you doubt me?’
‘Never,’ Beta shoots back.
Can Gamma be the undoing of the Whisperers? (Picture: AMC)
Amid their intense conversation, we see the initiation of a new member of the Whisperers – the introduction of Gamma (Thora Birch) to the team.
But it appears that she could prove to be a chink in the armour of the unshakeable Alpha, whose previous scare tactics and demand for things her way resulted in 10 survivors dying with their heads beheaded and placed on pikes to send a message to the camp at Alexandria.
Speaking ahead of the new season, Samantha said: ‘In Season 10, I’m most excited for the fans to see Alpha’s humanity, and understanding a little bit more about what are the Whisperers, why they behave the way they behave.
‘We’ve already seen this within the entire show, I think, but how the apocalypse affects some people one way and other people another way, and how primal instincts can take over individuals.’
‘Seeing more of that from a female perspective, as well, I think, is quite important,’ she continued. ‘With Alpha being this female villain, it’s interesting to explore.’
The Walking Dead airs Sundays on AMC in the US and Mondays on Fox in the UK.

James wants Craig fired from the Strictly Come Dancing (Picture: BBC/Rex)
James Jordan may have left Strictly Come Dancing in 2013, but his spats with judge Craig Revel-Horwood aren’t going anywhere.
The pro, who appears on eight seasons of the show, has now called for the resident ‘Mr Nasty’ of the judging panel to get the sack – insisting that ‘noone would miss him’ if he left.
‘The show doesn’t need Craig. He should go,’ he told Daily Star. ‘If Craig was gone they wouldn’t notice any difference at all.
‘The viewers wouldn’t miss him either. No-one would miss him.’
Craig and James’s continual rowing resulted in Craig getting a bodyguard last year – however when confirming that he added that James was using their feud as a ‘way to get publicity.’
After leaving Strictly James continues to watch the show, and now gives his own marks to each new celebrity taking on the challenge via Twitter (and, as always, isn’t afraid to go against the judges).
Despite David James falling into the bottom two for the second time in a row with Nadiya Bychkova, their Charleston routine to Kill Bill’s WooHoo by The 5, 6, 7, 8s landed them the lowest score on the leader board.
Oti Mabuse and Kelvin Fletcher scored the first 10s of the season, earning 38 for their Mary Poppins Returns routine to track Trip a Little Light Fantastic.
Craig could do nothing but apologise as everyone cracked up laughing, including Anton – so we think he got away with it.
Strictly Come Dancing returns Saturday at 6.40pm on BBC One.

The Apprentice candidate Lottie Lion has hit back at claims she’s racist’ after comments from the cast’s WhatsApp group leaked online.
The 19-year-old is among one of the favourites to land Lord Alan Sugar’s £250,000 investment after an impressive start in episode one last week, but she’s immediately been thrown into a thunderstorm after telling Lubna Farhan – whose parents hail from Pakistan – to ‘Shut up Gandhi’.
Mahtama Gandhi led the fight for India’s independence from Great Britain in 1947.
According to The Sun, Lottie claimed she’d never spoken to a black person before, which Lubna debunked by sending a picture of the candidate with a friend alongside the dig: ‘I thought she’d never met a “black person”.’
‘Seriously f*** off Lubna before I f****** knock you out at our press training,’ Lottie wrote back.
‘Lubna I f****** swear if you disrespect me again I will f*** you up, you embarrassing failure of a businesswoman.’
Then she added: ‘Shut up Ghandi (sic) that doesn’t even make sense.’
Since the clash became public, Lottie has now released a statement via PA to stress: ‘It is not true that I would ever be racist.
‘My use of the word Gandhi was misinterpreted, it was as candidates in the group chat had been quoting Gandhi previously.

‘The comments were taken out of context, and I ask the public not to make judgment without knowing the full context.
‘At the moment, I would like my focus to be on the show, and I’m not interested in negative media attention.’
Metro.co.uk has reached out to a spokesperson for The Apprentice for further comment.
Last week Lottie revealed she was targeted by a group of teens, who have been sending her death threats before the first episode of The Apprentice had even aired. Police confirmed they have launched an official investigation.
The Apprentice continues Wednesday at 9pm on BBC One.

After taking the winners’ title in the close competition, Twist and Pulse’s Ashley Glazebrook said: ‘Things like this don’t happen to me and my best friend Glen… this means the world to us.’
But who beat Twist and Pulse back in 2010 when they first appeared on Britain’s Got Talent?
After their very first audition, Ant and Dec said of the talented mates: ‘With their bright outfits and body popping moves, they reminded us of ourselves back in our PJ & Duncan days with one small difference, they could actually dance, and we couldn’t.’
The best friends, whose first act together before appearing on the show was called Cheeky Boiz, where they created online ‘streetomedy’ (street/comedy) videos, ended up finishing in second place behind Spelbound.
The winners of BGT in 2010, Spelbound, are a gymnastic troupe from the UK. They went on to perform at the Olympics after winning £100,000 on the show.
Like their former BGT 2010 finalists, following their rise to fame on the show Twist and Pulse also performed at the Olympics, going on to present and perform at every date of the 70-day Olympic Torch Relay Tour in 2012.
The dancing duo also appeared on TV shows including Magic Numbers, Celebrity Juice, CBBC’s The Slammer, ITV’s Tenable and BBC One’s Let’s Dance for Comic Relief with Lee Nelson.
In 2013, they were watched by over 400 million people, performing the world’s biggest street dance show on CCTV News.
Twist & Pulse are appearing on This Morning today, which airs at 10.30am on ITV.

Beverley Turner on marriage to James Cracknell: ‘It wasn’t a life I wanted to live anymore’ (Picture: BBC/ITV)
Beverley Turner, the ex-wife of Olympic Gold medalist James Cracknell appeared on Lorraine this morning and opened up about her painful divorce from the Strictly Come Dancing star.
When asked by Lorraine Kelly about her relationship with Cracknell now, the former television presenter said that she was ‘glad’ her ex had found a new partner who hadn’t known him prior to a horror bike crash in America 10 years ago, which left the sportsman with brain damage.
‘We don’t know how the brain works,’ Turner said, who also trained as a psychotherapist. ‘But James injured his frontal lobe, which controls your personality. The great thing is he’s met somebody who didn’t know him before the crash.’

Turner explained that post-crash she was ‘constantly looking for the first version [of Cracknell] and finding the differences.’
‘If you know him, you think he’s different.’ she shared. ‘And a bit scruffy. And he can’t dance!’
The Taste anchorwoman also couldn’t resist a cheeky dig or two at her former partner whilst sat on Lorraine’s sofa.

Lorraine airs weekdays from 8.30am on ITV.

Love Island’s Kem Cetinay has opened up about his struggle with anxiety, revealing that he considered suicide when he was younger.
The star, who won the 2017 series of the show, chatted with his mum about his mental health.
Explaining that, coming from a traditional Turkish family, mental health was a taboo topic, Kem said: ‘I pretty much got taken out of school completely, I wasn’t healthy or safe enough to be in school.’
He added that coming out of school with one GCSE was when he ‘hit rock bottom’.

‘I used to think about suicide,’ he said, adding that his mum found a notebook in which he wrote down all his feelings.
‘I had no education, no friends, I felt like a burden,’ Kem said.
Chatting about when he was set to appear on Love Island, his mum Figen confessed: ‘I was devastated. My question was “Why would you do this after everything you’ve been through?”‘
‘I’m better with dealing with it,’ he said. ‘I was always holding back so when the [Love Island] opportunity came up, I wanted my mum and dad to see the real Kem.’

Explaining the benefits of opening up about mental health, he pointed out: ‘Just talking, it opens your mind up.
‘It does a lot more damage in your head than out in the open.’
‘People don’t know I didn’t finish school, that I was a different person to how I am now … I basically had therapy seven days a week for, like, three years.’
He added: ‘It was only because I had the best help that I got through it. Talk to people, be honest about it – it’s so much better. A lot of guys have insecurities.’
‘The whole thing was just a complete blur,’ they admitted.
‘The Alesha golden buzzer moment, that was one of the crazy moments.’
‘I just remember talking to Dec and then the gold confetti.’
While the pre-recorded format of the show has caused backlash, the pair joked about the secret-keeping aspect.
‘At first it was quite easy because our friends and family were all there,’ they said.
Howeve, ‘There were 6000 people at Wembley, like, “Guys, please can you keep a secret!”‘

‘I am absolutely speechless, I can’t thank you guys enough,’ an emotional Glen Murphy (Pulse) told the crowd at the time of the win. ‘I’m holding back everything right now!’
While Ashley continued to Ant McPartlin: ‘Yeah, literally feel amazing. I’ve said it before, things like this don’t happen to me and my best friend Glen, so we’d just like to say thank you so much!
‘This means the world to us, honestly!’
Ant then handed the pair the coveted Champions trophy, before the judges joined them all on stage.
Nevertheless, the duo were thrilled with their win, recently announcing their 2020 headline tour.
