He said: “I’ve known Amir for the last 10 years thing is with Amir, he’s a bit of a joker and sometimes he’ll do a joke and he won’t take the consequences until after it and feel really bad.

“You’re probably going to see a big change in him in the next few days, he’s probably going to feel so guilty that he’s going to turn the camp upside down to make it right.

“The few times he’s played jokes on me, like we’ll be travelling and he’ll hide my passport and I’ll be like, ‘Where’s my passport?’ and a few hours later he’ll say, ‘Here it is’ and I’ll be like, ‘Bruv that’s not funny.’

“Then all the plane, the eight, nine hour journey he’ll apologising to me about, saying ‘I feel so bad, I’m sorry I stressed you out.’

“There have even been times when I’ve been trying to phone Emirates to change my flight because I can’t find my passport or my wallet.”

Despite being aware that his pal loves a joke, Nabil is still baffled as to why he did it.

He continued: “Maybe he thought the camp’s a bit dead and he wants to spice it up, maybe he’s a big fan of strawberries.

“It doesn’t make sense to me, it’s completely out of character.”

After hiding the plate behind a tree, Iain said: “This is the worst thing we’ve ever done.”
