Earlier this week Grace left viewers less than impressed during the first group trial as they claimed she ‘couldn’t give a f***’ about the challenge.
During the trial, which was dubbed the Locker Shocker, Grace appeared unenthusiastic as she moaned she couldn’t find the keys needed to open her locker.
The starving campmates were battling it out through a series of gruesome challenges in the newly unveiled ‘Scarena’ to win a lavish breakfast.
The first element saw the celebrities shut inside a locker and each campmate had to unlock five stars after finding the correct hidden keys.

Meanwhile Tony Bellew admitted the referee ‘saved his life’ during his infamous fight against Oleksandr Usyk on Sunday’s episode.
The former professional boxer, 40, entered camp this week alongside Frankie Dettori and was soon quizzed over his career by his fellow castmates.
The fighter bowed out from the ring with 30 out of 34 wins in 2018, after losing to Oleksandr Usyk – who is set to be Tyson Fury’s next opponent on December 23.
Oh no: Earlier this week Grace left viewers less than impressed during the first group trial as they claimed she ‘couldn’t give a f***’ about the challenge
In his final match at the Manchester Arena, Bellew looked to get back up after being knocked out – but referee Terry O’Connor stopped the fight.
On Sunday’s show, Bellew was quizzed by Jamie Lynn Spears, Sam Thompson and Fred Sirieix about his final fight, which saw the end to his ten-fight winning streak.
Sam asked: ‘What was it like fighting Usyk?’
Tony replied: ‘Too hard. Obviously he’s amazing. I’ve fought stronger people, I’ve fought quicker people, but I’ve never fought someone like him who has got everything. He works you out.

‘He downloads what you do. He’s downloading all the data in front of him. It takes him three rounds to do it. With me, it took him eight. And then he does it, he pulled the trigger.
‘But I was exhausted, like. I remember everything up until round 7. I don’t remember round 8.’
Fred asked: ‘Because you were so tired?’
Tony said: ‘Yeah.’
Sam asked: ‘Does he hit hard or not?’
Tony said: ‘No and I was up at six. He didn’t knock me clean out… I get up at six, thank god the referee didn’t let me because he’d have killed me.’
Tony then admitted the referee’s decision to stop the match when he did ‘saved his life’.
The Bomber added in the Bush Telegraph: ‘The referee literally saved my life. Next shot probably puts me away for good.
