The cricketer and Gogglebox star are the first to have been removed from the show after losing their respective events in the evening's programme.

Joey Essex beat Phil by just 0.05 seconds in the skeleton event and the cricketer then failed to match or beat Mike Tindall's distance jumped in a final ski jump.

Discovering he had been knocked out of the show, Phil revealed he had found the entire experience extremely frightening.

He said to host Davina McCall: "I've had a great time... not really it's been terrifying!"

In the second round, Dom went up against Jackass star Steve-O in the skeleton and lost out leading to a live ski jump against ex-JLS member JB Gill.

After performing the stunt, Dom said: "He's got it in the bag, hasn't he!", before it was revealed he'd only jumped nine metres whilst JB landed at 14.5 metres.

The second episode is to air tonight on Channel 4, seeing female contestants including Heather Mills, Stacey So0lomon and Ashley Roberts compete.
