The former 'EastEnders' actor admits in Friday night's (05.05.23) episode that the rice and beans diet hasn't been good for his wind, so much so one bottom burp eruption even woke him from his slumber.

Loudly farting on tonight's 'I'm A Celebrity... South Africa', Joe says: "They make me very windy. I’m doing a lot of farting.

"I woke myself up with my own fart."

Joe's campmate Fatima Whitbread then jokingly walks over and farts near him, and makes a quip about her parp being particularly powerful because of her Olympics background.

Soap star Joe then says: "It came out with some velocity ... it was definitely a more powerful fart than I’ve ever done myself."

Former javelin thrower Fatima jokes her name could be "Fart-ima".

Joe adds: "Because I love her so much, I quite appreciated it."

But it will be no laughing matter for Joe later in the episode as he and his fellow former 'EastEnders' co-star Dean Gaffney, who are Pride leaders, are tasked with making a huge decision.

Joe and Dean need to each pick a pair from their Pride to go head-to-head in a trial - but the losing pair will leave the show.

Ant explains: "You’re each going to pick two members of your Pride to go head-to-head in a trial. You can’t pick yourselves.

"The winners will get a final picnic at the waterfall. It comes with celebratory bubbles.

"That’s the good news. The bad news, unlike the first two Trials, this time the losing pair will leave camp forever."

Joe wails: "Oh, no!"

'I'm A Celebrity... South Africa' airs weeknights at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX, and on Virgin Media One and Virgin Media Player in Ireland.
