In tonight's show, Nick took issue with how Noel, 69, was tackling his chores of collecting water from the creek and boiling it before storing and drinking.

Watching Noel boil the water for the camp mates bottles, Nick told him to be careful taking the lid off the big pot, saying: “You get crap on the underside and it makes the water taste s**t.”

Noel showed him that he has his own technique which flips the lid over with his foot ensuring no jungle debris ends up in the pot.

But Nick then told him to decant the pot of water while it was still boiling, however Noel said he prefers to let it cool down first.

Noel said: “Nick’s doing a great job reminding us of the regulations, delegating extremely well, making the right decisions, all the hallmarks of a great leader."

Checking the rules with Nick, Noel asked if they had to keep three people around the fire at all times, “So I can’t go and get some more water?”

“No, I’m equally as unexcited about the rules as you are Noel,” Nick replied as he was lounging back in the sunshine.
A while later Nick was taking a dip in the pool talking to Harry Redknapp when he saw Noel wander past clearly having abandoned the fire.

He asked: “Has someone gone up, are there three people up there?"

Sheepishly, Noel replied: “Yes, we’ve got three up there”

But Nick was having none of it, asking: “Who is up there then, Malique and Emily? That’s not three.”

 Nick also questioned Noel about whether he's only left two people in camp as he walked past the pool

“I’m not giving you a hard time because I want to give you a hard time.”
Noel hesitated for a moment then said: “So now there’s a decision, do I finish getting the water and get a bollocking or do I go straight back to camp.”

Nick insisted it wasn't a bollocking as Noel headed back to camp muttering: “God forbid I get an endorsement on my celebrity licence.”

Nick then turned to Harry and says: “He doesn’t like the rules at all does he?”
In the Bush Telegraph Harry revealed: “Nick’s a stickler for the rules and we have to do as we are told.”
