Nick, 48, said: “We got to a point where Simon said, ‘Let’s go and get a Chinese,’ and on that journey back I slipped and hit my head on a log and lay unconscious.

“But Simon thought I was f*** about, so he just went off."

He recounted the incident in Highgate, North London, to sci-fi magazine SFX.

Simon, 52, added: “He’s never forgiven me.”
