Uri and Tony are having a very heated row this morning their time live on ITV2.... very heated! It's about the task. Tony says that Uri is effectively out of order if he eats the grubs. Uri is saying that it is a matter of food for the group.... but he hasn't seen the tucker yet! Clearly Tony has a hard time accepting a veggie would compromise his principles for anything... Uri disagrees. Tony also thinks that the prog has been rigged to set up this type of scenario...

The others are trying to defuse the situation. If Uri eats the bugs and wins the dinners, will Tony NOT eat his dinner on principle of how it was achieved? Anyways, expect this footage will show tomorrow night.

Hmmmm tricky one. Has Uri stated why he is a veggie? I am too but not for any moral or ethical reasons really, I just don't like meat or fish.

Uri's point that Tony was quite happy to stand by whilst the others killed ants with boiling water, certainly seemed to stump Tony

It's most vexing! I always miss the extras because they clash with "Homicide: Life on the Street" on Hallmark.

I suspect Tony is preaching the true belief here - any experts about?

Good luck to Tony - any conflict he has with Uri can only make him more popular.

Yes it was nice to see him being more vocal tonight.

Uri has a very annoying habit of thinking he knows how everyone is feeling - and being completely wrong.

When he tried to dismiss Nigel's remark that Rhona had upset Tony I was glad that he had the courage to admit he had been hurt by her comments - didn't Uri look surprised.

I wouldn't like to make the decision Uri has to.

Thought it amusing when Tony told Uri I must be a better vegetarian than you. (ITV2 last night)

Of course it all depends on why you are a vegetarian

Not Really! Tony said that he hadn't actually poured water on the ants, he said it at least twice from what I can remember, but he did admit to standing by while others did the pouring.
What else could he say after saying he didn't do the pouring?

Uri one of the most vocal 'celebs' in favor of killing the ant's off, he was clutching at straws trying to make Tony look bad, when he was 10 times worse himself.

OK... the moment of truth has arrived! Will Uri, or won't he??!

well... he did but I think he made a hell of a lot of bloomin fuss about it. All that visualisation and stuff was just so Uri. He just hasn't gone up in my estimation one jot doing that task, unlike Nigel.

BTW, did anyone else notice Uri trying his best to gross people out when telling them about eating the insects?

Talking about pus oozing out and all sorts.

He's one sick dude

Uri did fantastically eating all those insects. Methinks his books/tours will do well.

Yes a good move i htink - as people will ask - how did you ever do that and he'll talk about the power over the mind and it is just his body fofr now etc

Uri really didn't seem that bothered by the whole thing. Weird, for a committed veggie, I thought.

absolutely! Uri will be forever telling the story at his dinner parties, boring his guests to death with his amazing feats of mind over matter. Bollocks Uri!

Bollocks, Uri!!!

(my new war cry!)
