Robert kilroy Silk
Robert headed back to camp and immediately told his camp mates what happened during his trial. He said: ‘I was on the sixth one, the last one and I’d taken everyone off and dropped them with the star and the key on the deck.
"I’d got the key and I opened it the lock went open and I just couldn’t get out of the chain...I went up still with the chain attached. What I should have done is properly opened the lock and let the chain drop. I went up pulled the lever and then they [Ant & Dec] said "no, no the lock" and the lock had re-locked."
He continues: "So I went back down and the water by this stage is God knows where, but I went down the ladder...I went [back] down and got the key and its got to be the right key because I could see all the other stars under water when I was down there with all the keys and the locks on.
"There’s one there with the key so it’s got to be that one, it wouldn’t go and wouldn’t move and Joe is still doing it. And then he did it while I’m standing there like a prat saying "I’ve won’ thinking I had and it’s just the fact that the key won’t work...I’m sorry."
A victorious Joe returns to camp reports back on the events of the day. "I thought I’d lost....as I was getting out he started arguing saying ‘my last lock wasn’t working, this key doesn’t work.’ He continues, ‘The key (in his hand) weren’t working and I was thinking ‘oh he’s done it, he’s done it they’ve given him a dodgy lock’....there was another key at the bottom, they put the other key in and that was the key that done it.
"You know he’s a politician he nearly talked himself into victory. Can’t get beat by Silksey!"
