Dani Behr
The celebrities had a pow wow round the bush fire this morning about how the chores are allocated resulting in Dani’s nose being put slightly out of joint over her cooking.
Esther started the discussion by saying that there was a feeling among quite a lot of people that they should change the way they ran things. "Instead of having a designated person whose job it is to do something, we should all pitch in. Dani has been a fantastic cook but there are lots of people it seems who would like to be creative too."
"They can do it," said Dani. "I’m happy to sit and watch, they can do what they want I don’t care."
Carly made the point that it wasn’t just about cooking but about getting wood and other chores but she was rebutted by Robert who said: "They’ve got to be able to cook because we’ve got to eat it. When everyone has responsibility for doing the chore no one has responsibility so no-one can be held to account like Tim should be now for there being no wood here."
Jumping to his feet, Joe said: "We don’t have to be in categories, we’re too scared to step out and say "I’ll do that" because I didn’t want to step on anyone’s toes. I’m not shouting, I’m just talking loudly," he said laughing at himself.
Who would be cook for that night then raised a question at dinner when Dani asked if she’d been sacked as cook. David and Timmy volunteered to do it and then had second thoughts when three large crabs arrived. "Once we’d committed to it, we thought what do we do?"
Talking in the Bush Telegraph, David said: "Dani’s gone to bed in hump, well said she has a headache. But gone to bed without eating, which is bit sad. In fact if you’ve got a headache, best to eat. She's not silly, think she's got the hump. We had a successful meal and it was complicated but it was a collaborative effort by most of team, we were singing, we enjoyed it, the food tasted great and it worked. At the end I could have done a thirty minute show, all relaxed, singing. It was like we’d had wine but we didn’t we were drunk on love to cook our own meals."
"So, battle of the beds, battle of the meals, next it’s battle of the buses. So, we've broken the back of that. It’s been really hard work breaking what's been set before Timmy and I got here...she came back with three stars, think if she'd come back with 12 would have been different Nicola so we’ve got them on the back foot now, but boy it’s been a hell of a job getting there. Who knows what happens tomorrow, and who knows who goes on Wednesday?"
David however warned, "It’s not a completely happy ship, as we know one mutiny is going on. We’ll just have to see how long it lasts. Tomorrow's another day, we’ll see who ends up with hump tomorrow but we’ve proved we do not need one chef, and my suggestion of when food comes down that certain cuisine, that person should do it."
"Tonight was a success and they were singing and dancing at the camp. It’s organized anarchy, it's not chaos, it’s sorting out the egos, egos have been a problem. Some people felt they needed to assert themselves so much it suffocated the others and of course they could only do that for a certain amount of time before they got tumbled. "
Meanwhile in the Bush Telegraph Dani said she had a headache and was going to bed without dinner. "I’ve been banned from the kitchen because everyone else wants to have a go so there you go. I’d rather Nicola have my portion for what she went through today. I feel really weak, am seeing stars and got a really bad headache. I’d rather just have a proper sleep. David, Timmy and Brian want to do dinner so let them figure out three mud crabs for 12 people."
