New camp mate Katie Hopkins caused quite a stir with both camps talking about her.

In Croc Creek Anna said: This is so up her street.”

Cerys added: “I can’t wait to meet this lady.”

And Anna added: “She’s not awful. She’s a very driven woman.”

Marc intervened: “There’s nothing wrong with being driven but you work over people. And you need it in that world.”

Later Anna said in the Bush Telegraph: “I’m not like that. I’m a designer. I design pushchairs and I’m going to look after animals, and this lady has thousands of people probably in a company and that’s different to me, but that doesn’t mean we won’t get on.”

But Katie’s impending presence has affected all of Croc Creek and they are worried what effect the merging of the teams will have. John said: “She’s going to say, ‘I’m the leader of the pack. I’ve had four and now I’ve got nine’. That’s what she’ll try to do.”

And Marc joked that she might insist on running the camp strictly and introduce a roll call.

Meanwhile, Katie’s arrival in Snake Rock seemed to ruffle some feathers. Lynne and Katie chatted, with Lynne saying she thought Katie’s father might have been in the navy as she seemed to have a military nature. Katie told her she’d been through Sandhurst and Lynne told her: “You’re not at Sandhurst now.”

Katie replied: “I know that, but I still talk the way I talk and I am the way I am.”

Lynne then picked Katie up about what she described as her masculine language. She said: “Mate is such a mannish expression. I don’t want to be a man. I have my own language too, more feminine endearments. I’d probably call you sweetheart or Katie. One of the problems women have in this world is that language is so masculine. My stuff is using metaphors.”

The conversation moved to behaviour in business. Katie said: “I think you and I would make each other uncomfortable in our business lives. That is the reality.”

Lynne replied: “I know you’d wear a corporate suit to a meeting. For me, why are we trying to look like men?”

Later she added: “I totally disagree with her. We’ve to be ourselves and be the best we can.”

Katie replied: “I like feeling strong and I like feeling muscular. I like wearing a suit. It makes me feel like I’m ready to take on the blokes. They’re tough ballsy bastards, a lot of them.”

Later Katie said about Lynne: “Oh my good God. So if there was left and right of a spectrum, Lynne is left and I am right. I really think that anyone who talks about femininity but doesn’t really respect themselves in terms of keeping themselves fit and healthy… it’s a juxtaposition of what she’s saying. I’d rather be me.”
