00:01The Great Escapers, brought to you by Jet 2 Holidays.
00:05Ahoy there, ladies!
00:08Stars from Britain's best-loved shows are jetting off for a holiday showdown.
00:14Is anyone else nervous? Yeah.
00:16Legends of Corrie, I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here,
00:18Loose Women and The Chase are competing against their fellow castmates.
00:24Hey, no road rage, please.
00:26To prove they can deliver the best holiday adventure.
00:30You like that break a bit, do you watch? I'm not even pressing the break.
00:33Each famous face...
00:34Can we get back to coronation, please?
00:36O-M-G.
00:37DJ Destroyer!
00:38...will plan their dream day in the sun.
00:41We are Loose Women. Together we can do anything.
00:43And at the end of the week...
00:45They'll vote to decide who will be crowned the greatest escaper.
00:50Are we all thinking, I want to win? Yeah.
00:53Only one of us can be the greatest escaper.
00:56Who is it gonna be?
01:00Along the southern coast of Portugal lies the Algarve.
01:09Famous for its golden beaches, picturesque villages and endless sunshine.
01:14The perfect battleground for this week's celebrities.
01:17Three ex-campmates from I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here.
01:21They survive the jungle together.
01:23But can they survive an actual holiday?
01:25The first of those three celebs is queen of the ballroom, Oti Mabusi.
01:30I love travelling. The freedom, the drinks, the naps.
01:35I need a cocktail and the sun. I think my day will win.
01:39I just want to always be the best and do my best every single time.
01:45Hot on her heels is ex-campmate number two.
01:50Radio One breakfast DJ, Dean McCulloch.
01:53I take my holidays very seriously.
01:55I'm definitely the one to plan everything because I love it.
01:58I even love getting up really early in the morning and going to the airport.
02:02Everyone rolls their eyes, but I like it.
02:04Where's your favourite piece you've been on holiday?
02:06Turkey.
02:07Oh my God, I love Turkey.
02:08I am from Antalya.
02:09Oh, I went to Antalya to get my teeth done.
02:10No.
02:11These are Antalya's finest.
02:12I may not be good at the Bush Tucker trial, but what I'm really good at is putting together an award-winning five-star holiday.
02:22Just don't stress everyone, I've got this.
02:27And last to arrive is the legend of the boxing ring, the one and only Barry McGuigan.
02:33I'm hoping to win.
02:34I want to put on a really fabulous day that they really enjoy.
02:38And I'm also looking forward to revealing my competitive edge as well.
02:4413.9 kilos.
02:45Yes.
02:46Is that good?
02:47Very underweight.
02:48Great.
02:50Bye, man.
02:51Hello, everybody.
02:52Hi.
02:53Good morning.
02:54Oh, we're going to get a holiday, man.
02:58A three-hour flight from the UK, the Algarve stretches across Portugal's southern Atlantic coastline.
03:05Look at this.
03:06Barre.
03:07Yes, indeed.
03:09Oh.
03:10Who's got the biggest food?
03:11I bet you're with Barre.
03:12Not me.
03:13With your size, everything is bigger than that.
03:17I have absolutely no idea what Oti and Dana planning.
03:20None, whatsoever.
03:21To be honest, I'm ready for anything.
03:23I love to throw myself in all the most weirdest situations ever.
03:30So whatever you want to throw my way, I'm totally up for it.
03:34I have a funny feeling that we're going to wake up in the morning that Barre's going to be stood at the end of my bed with some boxing gloves.
03:39Right, you. Up.
03:40And the fact that he has control of a whole day of this trip, I do worry that it will involve endurance.
03:47Three stars, three dream days, but only one winner.
03:52Cheers.
03:53Cheers.
03:54To get in here in one piece.
03:55Yes.
03:57Now the crack begins.
03:58I'm really looking forward to this whole experience with you guys.
04:02I hope so.
04:03It's going to be better.
04:04Because I'm with you two, I kind of think at any moment that either Ant and Dak are going to walk in and be like,
04:08Dean, it might be.
04:10Yeah.
04:11Yeah.
04:12We're going to have a good time.
04:13Well, there we are.
04:14I know all this seems quite nice and lovely, but this is a competition.
04:17Yes.
04:18We're only in business.
04:19And there can only be one winner.
04:20I'm looking at a world champion boxer here and a two times strictly champion.
04:23I'm just going to hold my hands up and say, I would love to win.
04:26And you two, you two could go home.
04:29Losers.
04:30That's a genuine possibility.
04:31I am prepared to accept that.
04:34No, you're not.
04:35Are you?
04:36Well, not really.
04:37That was a lie.
04:38Yeah.
04:39No.
04:44Oti's the first to show off her perfect day out.
04:46And she's getting help from customer helper Gio to turn her ambitious wish list into a reality.
04:53Everything has been planned.
04:55Adventure, fun, laughter and a good time.
04:58I think my day will win because I'm giving them variety.
05:02Good morning.
05:03Good morning.
05:04How are you this morning?
05:05Oh, I'm feeling amazing.
05:06Look at the sun, blue sky.
05:08Isn't it beautiful?
05:09I'm so excited about today.
05:10So my first idea is off-road baggies.
05:13Oh, okay.
05:14That's wild.
05:15Yeah.
05:16Unexpected.
05:17It's just that element of just pushing yourself.
05:18Yeah.
05:19And getting on something that you've never got on before.
05:21Yeah, yeah.
05:22And then just going as fast as possible.
05:23Yeah.
05:24Do you have an idea where we can get?
05:25Can you sort them out for me?
05:27Absolutely.
05:28100%.
05:29Do they go fast?
05:30That's what I need to know.
05:31Well, that depends on the driver.
05:33She's told us to bring a change of clothes.
05:36Yes.
05:37That worries me, Barry.
05:38That means we're either getting sweaty or dirty.
05:40And I don't want to do any of that.
05:41Or both.
05:42Or both.
05:43It would be really lovely for us to have lunch somewhere, which is really nice and authentic.
05:48So there's this beautiful little hidden gem where the locals would kind of go, that sort
05:52of thing.
05:53Off the beaten track, if you will.
05:54Yeah.
05:55And I think you're going to really enjoy it.
05:56Do you think she's going to get us dancing?
05:57Of course she is, yeah.
05:58She's got to be.
05:59The boys know that I love to dance.
06:01So I would love to get the boys moving.
06:04So we have this lovely little traditional folk group to kind of give you guys that little
06:10taster.
06:11You'll have a great time.
06:12You grew up in some musical theatre, so that's your thing.
06:15Yeah, listen.
06:16This is very much in my wheelhouse.
06:17Yes.
06:18I love busting a move.
06:19Yeah, yeah.
06:20I'm not sure if I want to do it on holiday.
06:23Do you know what I mean?
06:25I've been very competitive, but also good about today.
06:28I don't think they'll expect the first activity.
06:31I think those things that we're doing with the adventure, that will cater very much to
06:35Barry, but the dancing, that also cater very much to Dean.
06:39So I'm feeling like, if I can get just two ticks from the boys, I have to have this
06:44in the bag, right?
06:46Hello.
06:47Hey, hey, hey.
06:48Morning.
06:49Morning.
06:50Whilst Gio puts the finishing touches to Oti's day, the escapers are heading 12 miles
06:55north to the Moorish 12th century castle at Padern, the perfect place for her first
07:01surprise.
07:02A bit of sightseeing.
07:03This is one of the castles that is actually on the flag of Portugal.
07:08So I thought that we just come here and we just admire some of the history and the
07:13culture that comes with being in Portugal.
07:16Are you being serious?
07:17No, no, she is.
07:18She is.
07:19I think it was great.
07:20So we're going to stand here and look at this castle all day.
07:21Sure.
07:22William.
07:23I'm just joking.
07:24I'm just joking.
07:25I hate you.
07:26We're riding an off-road tower.
07:29Oh my God.
07:30Yes.
07:31Yes.
07:32Oh my God.
07:33Now you're joking.
07:34Well done.
07:35You saved it.
07:36You saved it.
07:37That was great.
07:38Because up until now this was getting boring.
07:41I love adventure and I love adrenaline.
07:47I love getting myself to the place where I'm like, this scares the life out of me.
07:51But I'm going to do it because it does.
07:53Come on.
07:54Barry, how's your driving?
07:56Get ready to eat dust, guys.
07:58Maybe I should have told you before now I've been disqualified seven times for speeding.
08:02Wow.
08:03No, you haven't.
08:04Yeah.
08:05Aww.
08:06Oi.
08:07Whoa-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho!
08:11Loser.
08:30Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha..
08:31I love speed. I just love excitement. Love the risk and the danger.
08:52There was one point where I did fear for my life. I thought to myself, has Barry McGrigan
08:56ever passed his driving test because we were going on a single lane and Barry tried to
09:00overtake a full day.
09:01From Portugal at the same side of the road as us, wasn't it?
09:07I am. I don't know.
09:12Can't help us, Barry.
09:15She's leaving us for a duck, Barry.
09:22Oh no, not the fuck.
09:26This morning was so much fun. I mean, look at me. I'm grey and brown and dirty, but you've
09:42got the biggest smile on my face. I really think that this morning I give them a little
09:47bit of a taste of me. I loved it.
09:51I thought you were going to let me pass.
09:53Barry, this is not the Formula One.
09:56That was 10 out of 10. I would give that a solid 10 out of 10.
10:00Yeah.
10:01It's fantastic.
10:02And I think that the fact that this is only her first activity out of three, God knows
10:06what the rest of the day has. I mean, we were exhausted. We're ready for an afternoon
10:10nap.
10:12Fresh from her victory, OT's taking the boys for lunch in the sleepy village of Alta, famous
10:18for its natural springs.
10:20I tell you what, we will not be able to beat that.
10:23Excitement and enthusiasm and fun. It was fun. I was great.
10:27But you get very competitive as well. Where do you think you get it from?
10:31When I was a kid, I was always into sport. Then I got into boxing. Bingo.
10:36I knew right away, this is going to be something I could be really good at. You know, wanting
10:41to be successful and wanting to be the best at something, like I suppose you did in your
10:46dancing.
10:47Yeah, dancing.
10:48You have the sort of drive that would have made you the very best.
10:51Yeah, yeah.
10:52It feels good when you work hard and you achieve something. I believe that part of me comes
10:57from my parents, really, because my dad, of course, we grew up in South Africa and it
11:02was really tough. And being a lawyer, seeing him wake up every morning, really work hard,
11:07and also defend people, but then come back home and then continue working. And that became
11:12the culture of the family. My dad was like, if I'm working hard, you guys have to work hard
11:17as well, because I'm not always going to be around.
11:19Yeah.
11:20And my mom was always about the sports. I started doing national competitions when I was
11:24seven, eight years old. So I was really young. And every single sport that we did, my mom
11:30was like, if you're going to use your time, you've got to be the best. And you've got to work.
11:35Isn't that interesting?
11:36And you really have to push. When you're a dancer, like your body is your job. And it's
11:42really difficult because we have to retire so young.
11:46Yeah.
11:47Yeah.
11:48Oh, it's how you doing?
11:49Oh, my God.
11:50Do you?
11:51This one is salad of Octopus.
11:52Great.
11:53And this one is fresh cold salad. This one is from Algarve.
11:56Enjoy your meal.
12:00I'm going to dig in.
12:01I've never had an octopus salad.
12:02This is good.
12:03Barry, do you remember how we were in the jungle? You would finish all my meals.
12:08Come on!
12:08Yeah!
12:11Amen.
12:15Kind of.
12:16Unpack then swim or jump right in?

12:46the best holiday adventure and be crowned the champion great escaper today oti mabusi is in
12:53charge and she's planned an activity for dean mcculloch and barry mcguigan she hopes will give
12:58her the edge in the competition my activities describe exactly who i am very adventurous but
13:04then the dance the dancers is quite important i think they'll ease into it and they'll definitely
13:09enjoy it and they'll be like yeah this is this is more of what we thought you'd do on holiday
13:15oh here we go
13:17this is a folk group who actually do traditional dancing that is like known from the area okay and we
13:36are gonna get involved yes barry yes we're gonna do something come on come on i really truly believe
13:46that when you go out and see other people's styles of dance that's them sharing their history with you
13:54dating back to the 19th century coradino is a lively couples dance born legend has it when a spanish man
14:01tried to win the heart of a local woman with his nifty footwork i've never ever in my life done this
14:07style of okay i don't i don't care you can pick it up like that yes i've already picked it up but
14:12done congratulations are you ready to learn oh yes i'm completely out of my comfort zone and you know
14:29that it is it is not me i think he thought we were just coming to observe the dance but when the dance
14:36teacher turned around and said no it's your turn i could feel barry quivering you're gonna put this
14:43arm yeah like this okay here yeah okay now we're gonna go middle steps like this now you're gonna run
14:51go faster yeah let's go faster faster faster oh my god oh my god oh my god that's good we went so fast
15:04okay let's do it again you are exactly my demographic
15:12i'm feeling very excited i love trying something new when i come on holiday and i would never get the
15:17chance to do this otherwise but it is very very fast and their kids are like five and they're doing it
15:21really well is anyone else nervous yeah yes can we start yes let's go
15:28one two three one two three one two three
15:32better pitch up one two three one two three
15:39up the knee
15:40what a way to end the day i don't know how she's managed this barry and i don't
16:06send a chance for the rest of the week
16:11there you go thank you very much thank you so much what would you give us out of 10. eight
16:17i can't handle an eight even for me now you're a 10. thank you you're a full 10. that's my girl
16:24wow i love the dancing and they were all just beautiful people the whole lot of them but it
16:30was great fun and they were very patient teachers so yeah an eventful day and i genuinely really
16:37enjoyed it the dancing was amazing when you see the little kids and they love it so much and then you
16:42see how they're guided by the older generation and you can see how community is supposed to work took me
16:48back home to south africa i love the fact that they still do this and it feels really like a community
16:55and the reason why i started dancing in south africa we had that apartheid era there were no places where
17:02little black kids could dance and so my mom formed her own dance school we were safe we had ambition
17:10in that room we were focused and we were doing something useful for our future and that tonight
17:16reminded me of why you know i love dance and i stayed in it it's just that community yeah well i
17:23found out more about ot today stuff we didn't find out in the jungle so she grew up in a very
17:28difficult time great mom very competitive great teacher patient getting to hear her talk about her
17:35family and what led her to where she is today was really really special she has determination and
17:44ambition but she has such a big heart i really hope my day was successful i definitely think barry and
17:50dean enjoyed it and then at the end big smiles all around barry yeah good luck tomorrow thank you
17:57you've got a tough act to follow okay to bed we go let's rock and roll
18:11today it's barry's chance to shine and he's confident that his day has all the winning
18:16ingredients i think i've got a a wonderful day planned i don't think it i know it for me i want
18:22to give ot and dean some escapism the thing i like doing most of all is relaxing and enjoying just
18:29quiet time and it'll be interesting to see uh what they're like when they chill out there's a slight
18:35air of trepidation because i don't know what's happening and there's something telling me that barry
18:41doesn't know what's happening either he's a bit unorganized i would say but all day yesterday he thought
18:48we were in spain we had to remind barry last night at the portuguese smoke dance that we were in
18:55portugal it's not looking good i got a bit of sick from ot about burning the rice and beans when i was
19:07in the jungle okay so i would love to cook them something nice somewhere beautiful i'd like to be
19:14out on the sea we can work a lot with that so what about a luxury boat you can go on you can cook them
19:21a meal there's a little market near where the boat's going to be you can shop around barry each morning
19:26tries to coax me to go to the gym with him he thinks it's a lovely time but it's just not my idea of a
19:32very nice day are you i'd love to do something physically demanding yeah i like all that sort of
19:39stuff so what do you recommend cool i think kayaking with tick the box what do you perfect and if you're
19:46having fun you don't feel like you're working out exactly yeah i think we've got something very
19:50special planned it's both exciting and beautiful and very much looking forward to seeing what what
19:57odian dean think about it barry's first activity is just east of the popular resort town of alba
20:04it's meant to be a chilled out treat but like everything barry does it involves a bit of a
20:09workout look at this we're here at this spectacular looking beach and i'm going to bring them kayaking
20:17and we're going to go around the cove and it's going to be tough but it's going to be beautiful
20:22where are we going we are going to poodle along the coast and look at the spectacular views the
20:27thing about professional boxing is it's a game of dropping weights and watching what you have to
20:32eat and after years and years of that i've always kept myself in shape and i i love kayaking it's a
20:38really good workout so i hope they enjoy it i know i will i hope they will too we don't try and race or
20:44anything it's just it's just a bit of fun why don't i believe that he didn't get to overtake it yesterday
20:49so this might be ding ding run two no it's not ding ding run two we just want you to be safe and
20:54enjoy it that'll be fine as long as we overtake you that'll be absolutely fine if you overtake me you've

25:06say i want to win thank you very much barry i appreciate it you're welcome yeah it was great
25:15thanks good fun thanks it was really inspiring to see you literally still going giving it yeah all the
25:21guests you had and i can't believe you still have it that's amazing when you're a fighter it's with
25:26you to the day you die the day when i stopped boxing it was a hard thing to come to terms with
25:31but was it like a loss yeah fierce loss the effort that i put in and the pain that i suffered to get
25:37into shape yeah was like incredible for you when you had those low moments those tough moments yeah
25:43what were they and how did you get over them losing my title in vegas just over a year after i'd
25:48won the title and i fought 15 rounds so yeah i fought 15 rounds yeah and i was knocked down in
25:55in the 15th round from sheer exhaustion it wasn't i wasn't hard i was simply unable to hold my hands
26:01up wow and uh get out of the way so i said right that's that that's that part of my life is finished
26:06now so i was only champion for a year and i never regained the title which was disappointing but you
26:12have to change and refocus that's the way i've lived my life i've always been competitive i've always
26:19wanted to to do well at whatever i done barry really opened up about how hard he pushed himself
26:26physically and mentally throughout his career to get to the success that he has it was also really
26:31nice to hear barry talking about grieving the loss of his career and something i hadn't really thought
26:37of before so the fact that he shared that with us and was honest instead that it was really difficult
26:42was brave of him yeah and letting go the kayaks were challenging whereas now we have a very relaxed
26:54evening we're going to be taking them out on a lovely boat they're going to have delicious food with a
27:00spectacular panoramic view of the coastline i'm here today to buy some fish and i'm going to do the
27:06cooking the saving didn't you make us eat burnt rice and burnt beans i did that many times oh boy
27:15at home i'm lazy so my wife cooks for me so it's the first time i've got a question for you yeah
27:20have you ever cooked fish before yes i have it's going to be fabulous yeah some good fish
27:25red fish here can i hold it those are some eyes oh wow it slipped out of my hand i'm sorry oh give
27:38him a clean yeah okay give him a wash i'm so sorry nobody good nobody good what what is this
27:45gal negro it's like a chicken this is gallo is like a rooster gallo negro would be the one yeah okay
27:50absolutely can you fill it this first yeah well that would be great i think they'll be apprehensive
27:55about my cooking no doubt about it but um and i would be a bit nervous about it because i know
28:00that they were given out about the burnt beans and rice so i want to do a better job today i'm scared
28:06because he said sandra does everything for me his wife so now i'm like oh she's not here
28:14maybe in the jungle he just thought i'm not going to tell everyone that i'm a really good cook
28:17otherwise they're going to make me the camp chef yeah it's all going to come out today wow we don't
28:22want to eat the fish eye because that's quite triggering for us yeah you want me to take them
28:25out no no no leave them leave them in i had to eat them i had like 14 yes i remember now oh you're
28:35oh the penny's dropped has it barry's hoping his last surprise will distract ot and dean from his
28:43terrible cooking skills by serving them dinner on a luxury catamaran oh look at this no way you cannot
28:52say i haven't treated you are we going on this boat yes sir no we are going out to sea now let's get
28:59out of here yeah let's go all i imagine myself is just being like oh you're like a bond girl
29:14i love it this is so beautiful i didn't expect this from barry no go on
29:21oh that was so underwhelming i mean he's slaving away in the kitchen right now yes so we are hopeful
29:31that this isn't going to turn out like a bush trigger trial oh yeah so when was the last time
29:36you cooked a meal well not not long back a couple of weeks and what was it baked potatoes
29:47and beans and grated cheese oh for the love of god did you put it in the microwave of course i did
29:57barry's meal of boiled potatoes and fried fish is finally ready to be served
30:02a big step up from burnt rice and beans right guys here we are this is giving me flashbacks do you
30:11know what i mean yes yes
30:14sandra your wife would be very proud of this dish well thank you dean and in fact i think when she
30:19watches this she's going to make you do more cooking exactly that's the problem so how did you and
30:24sandra meet well we couldn't not meet because we lived across the road from one another so we grew up
30:30with each other basically and how long have you been married this is our 44th year wow long time
30:37i i gave sandy a ring when i was five years old when you were five five years old i gave her a wedding
30:42ring she kept it oh my word so there you are i'm still madly in love with her and i hope she's still
30:47madly in love with me it's amazing very has done well the beginning of the day was hell i hated it
30:55but this the food everything else i absolutely loved barry this has been such a great meal such a
31:02great day actually thank you i didn't expect barry to want to do stuff like this on holiday and to
31:09share a sunset with us and it seems almost sentimental what a perfect way to end an amazing
31:15day from barry the food was great the crack was great the chats were great it was brilliant this has
31:21been one hell of a day to finish off out in our catamaran i think it's going to be it's going to
31:27be a tough task to measure up to dean is the last to plan his day and if he wants to win he's got a
31:40hard act to follow after all the quad bikes and kayaks my dream holiday soaks up culture fun and i love
31:48going out having a good time but i think this morning it might be quite nice to kick back and
31:52relax a wee bit what is the spa culture like in the algarve so i've got the perfect spa in mind for you
31:59very natural keep you in touch with your jungle side as well as a trio i don't think barry's ever
32:04been to a spa in the jungle he was constantly brushing his hair and then his mom gifted him skin
32:09care for his skin so he's quite a luxurious person that might have something to do with it maybe we'll go
32:16shopping maybe we'll go shopping my worst nightmare so i love when i go away to be in amongst the trees
32:24or on the beach so have you heard of razor clam fishing no tell me about it okay i used to do this
32:30actually back when i was a little boy it's actually really therapeutic as well is it yeah do you think
32:35what he does on holiday that is something that you would typically do on holiday no so he's got his work
32:41cut out and his work cut out i think i'm gonna have to lump it we've not been able to let our
32:46hair down together much since we left the jungle yeah so i think to end the trip on a high i need to
32:53take barry and odie down the strip love it odie's strength is dancing barry's strength is boxing my
33:00strength is taking holidays from work so i think i've got this
33:05where does it look like we are ot it looks like we are in literally the middle of nowhere
33:13they're actually heading towards the spanish border and the castro marim nature reserve
33:19where dean's planning to win over ot and barry with a relaxing spa day we're here at a salt spa and there
33:25is wellness in the air because we've had quite a busy few days and it's time to just kick back relax and
33:33float in the salty water look at this wow today we're going to be pampered we're going to be
33:40preened that's great barry you're about to get a glow up and you're going to come out of here
33:44like a shiny two-pence piece i don't need to be any more shiny look at my head we need to cover
33:50ourselves in the salt really exfoliate your body and then we just float in the water yeah this is the
33:56part where i wish i had have gone to the gym barry they used to have rock hard abdominals now
34:03unfortunately i've got to do they over the top of them look wonderful oh
34:10oh babes oh yeah
34:32i'm going on holiday with you forever
34:36don't think we've forgotten about you at home because you could also be in with a chance to win
34:40a seven night holiday to the algarve courtesy of jet two holidays we're also throwing in three
34:46thousand pounds spending money too enter now for free go to the website before 3pm on friday
34:52you must be 18 or over good luck
35:01hiking or mountain biking
35:04the great escapers brought to you by jet two holidays
35:11beach fun day or ice cream sunday
35:17the great escapers brought to you by jet two holidays
35:26after two hectic days in the algarve dean's hoping to find the winning formula by giving his old jungle
35:32mates oti and barry a very different day out he's brought them to a salt spa for his favorite
35:37activity relaxing
35:39can i let you both into a secret go on so i've kept my jungle outfit
35:46in a bag in my bedroom and i've still not washed it
35:51yes i can't bring myself to put it in the machine every time i'm missing yours i just go and sniff the
35:58clothes and that pungent smell of cockroaches and fish guts reminds me of you too you're welcome
36:06just the two of us only us two
36:08and now we bake
36:16do you remember those feelings that you felt when you left the jungle
36:22yeah i got out and i was on such a high and i really wish that that's where it ended
36:32because i'd been sent quite a few death threats i didn't know you had uh death threats i've never
36:38ever had that it was something like 35 35 yeah there was 35 i think it's classified now as
36:46aggravated malicious contact is the official term for it my agent said like there are threats to come
36:53to your work in the morning i was like for what for like saying i'm a celebrity get me out of here
37:00because i didn't want to be trapped in a box like what have i said what have i done and they said
37:04i don't think it's what you've done i think it's who you are yeah and then i realized oh yeah homophobia
37:12is still right and there's no getting away from that then i start going over the things in my head
37:18that i could have done differently but now you're dimming your own lights for other people to satisfy
37:24them and you know you can never make anyone happy i had the time of my life i don't regret a single
37:30thing even the screaming yeah i was a bit shocked to hear that dean had um death threats whoever
37:38threatened them sounds ridiculous to actually go out and threaten someone is just unacceptable
37:44i have to remember that as long as my mum is proud of me and my boyfriend is proud of me
37:49that's all that matters because i won't be able to keep everyone happy because if i was everyone's
37:54cup of tea i'd be a mug yeah and with this clay on us i think that could be happening pretty soon
38:07dean's love of mindfulness and nature is also the inspiration for his next activity
38:13when i'm on holiday i like to do things that you wouldn't normally get to do
38:16i had a little look and a chat with geo and he's recommended this spot which is very famous for
38:22clam fishing it's gonna be very relaxing okay how many times can you say you went on holiday and you
38:27fished for clams barry no never done it before i've never been fishing and i've never been fishing for
38:34clam i like my holiday friends to be outside their comfort zone oh hi there this is our friend hey
38:44my name is christina how are you welcome so today i'm going to show you how to catch razor clams okay
38:52a much sought-after delicacy in the algarve razor clams are mollusks that love burrowing into sandy
38:58seabeds try and look for holes shape of a number eight okay and then we use a technique with salt oh i
39:05see so the razor clam inside doesn't like it yes it comes to the surface you grab it let's play a game
39:12okay who can collect the most razor clams in 10 minutes all right good right three two one go
39:20i'm gonna get over here oh here we got it barry's got one everyone get up get up get up get up get

39:45i can't say that odie's having a ball and now my back hurts i need physio i don't think she's quite
39:51appreciated the fact that this is a mindful activity of relaxation are you in there all right please don't
40:00start punching the sand okay grab it grab it grab it yeah here we go yep got it yeah that one
40:12though it will be quite awkward if i set this challenge and i come back when often

40:55draw no has to be a winner come on oh here we go yeah yeah now i did it i did it i did it oh yeah
41:06yeah there you go brilliant you're the winner i think this has been a roaring success i mean
41:14we're all feeling positively relaxed i mean i'm having a ball i loved it didn't get enough bites got two
41:20i couldn't think of anything worse and for a girl with big boobs bending over is not an ideal thing
41:27to do on my vacation you know i actually think that i was a fisherman in a past life is that right
41:33have i ever told you this what you laughing at what why are you laughing i just don't see it for you
41:41what it's the final night of the trip and i've got one more trick up my sleeve we have had
41:50the most relaxing day and now it's time to hit the infamous alba fear strip
41:56for our last activity i thought i would take you back to a place that i came to exactly 10 years ago
42:13because i came to the alba fear strip but i can't remember leaving oh god and look i'm five years sober
42:19this year and i thought that i would show you guys how you can still have fun in a night out
42:26in sobriety exactly barry what made you stop drinking alcoholism is in my family and there
42:35was one monday i was going to work on the way out i was stepping over bottles that were due to go down
42:40to the bin and there was a two liter bottle of vodka four bottles of wine and all these tins of gin
42:46and tonics never in my life did i ever think i would drink that much and i knew i had a problem
42:52and i said to my best mate i think i'm just going to stop drinking for a month and just see what
42:57happens and the one month turned into six months turned into a year having the courage to do that
43:04yeah takes an awful lot of effort so congratulations thank you i know you get it i know you get it
43:08me and i thought tonight is the night for us to let our hair down get our dancing shoes on oh and party
43:16cheers baby this is something new the cast for slack part two and this time we're gonna get
43:26we've met in the jungle but we never had a night out like a night to remember and that was something
43:32that always made me really sad and like now with you i don't know what i expected
43:40i spend my life in clubs djing and that is my new hearty medicine bring all your friends i'm djing
43:47in there in a bit it's exactly how i like to spend my nights out in holiday so the only thing i can
43:52remember about my night here was the buck and bronco 2015 dean wouldn't actually believe this
44:14making friends with oti and barry and coming back here to show them the chaos that i used to be
44:20it really has felt special it was great to see dean doing this thing he's really good at what he does
44:29and you could see how he gets the audience all worked up
44:35seeing dean in his natural habitat was i think just unforgettable he loves djing he loves clubbing and
44:44he's done this all so good shall we have a nightcap we have to have a nightcap what are we thinking
44:50whiskey and chamomile tea
44:56ot barry and dean have each shared their perfect day out and now they must decide who will be crowned
45:03the champion great escaper each one of your days have been fantastic i hope you've enjoyed mine yeah
45:10yeah so i think we've got to come to the stage now where we've got to make our mind up on who's
45:14one out to your day was pretty amazing when you surprised us with these incredible buggies
45:22it was phenomenal it's almost like you picked it especially for me barry i did not know what to expect
45:28with your day but i loved learning about you barry i love it when you talk about how much you love your
45:32wife and we went on the catamaran and then you cooked and we didn't die of food poisoning
45:41and then dean the spa was fantastic the way you opened up about the jungle we hadn't realized what
45:49you were going through as a friend dino the night was incredible i've you know i've seen you in a whole
45:56new light this is the real dean mcculler i have to think what things i wish i would bring my family to do
46:02and so i'm gonna go with berry oh thank you thank you thank you very much oti of all the things those
46:10fast buggies that was the thing i really loved so dina i'm really sorry i'm gonna go for oti's day
46:17go on well done the power is in my hand wow it's going to be so hard to call this but my absolute
46:25highlight of this whole entire trip has to be the three of us on the front of that catamaran
46:30watching the sunset so barry yes you are my winner thank you very really really well done you
46:40dean and barry definitely have surprised me i mean there were bits about dean that i didn't know that
46:46meant just getting to know who barry was and how he lights up when he talks about his wife we have
46:51experienced a once in a lifetime opportunity together living in the jungle so the fact that we've came here
46:57we've almost debriefed i'm actually a bit sad to be leaving this has been the best holiday that i
47:02have ever been on group hack to the greatest game oh yeah i'm absolutely thrilled to win this
47:10and of course the bottom line is i've learned so much more about dean and ot and they'll be my
47:15friends for the rest of my life when you win you have to buy the drinks at the bar but that's fine
47:45cool dipping or margarita sipping
47:57the great escapers brought to you by jet 2 holidays
