FORMER Derbyshire MP Edwina Currie proved she was the "mighty Edwina Currie" when she beat Carl Fogarty in a tribe challenge in the latest episode of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here.
The 68-year-old ended up in a battle of the sexes on Saturday's show, as she took part in the Two Tribes Challenge against the Superbiker racer.
Before the challenge, Fogarty had said: "It's down to me know to try and take down the mighty Edwina Currie. Not an easy task at all because she's unfazable and some might say unbeatable. But I'm strong as well."
The challenge was called Round The Twist and both Edwina and Foggy had to stand on a revolving pole with a button in the middle of it. Whichever celebrity let go of their button first would be the loser.
As the poles revolved, Fogarty said: "I feel dizzy already."
Meanwhile, Edwina sang Isn't She Lovely by Stevie Wonder to distract herself, while bugs were poured over her head. When jungle slime was released on her, Edwina barely reacted as she focused on singing Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon and Garfunkel.
But it was Fogarty who lost after his siren went off. He was shocked as he said he did not realise he had taken his finger off the button.
Edwina jokingly said: "My lord mayor, lord, ladies and gentlemen, I have to say I didn't think I was going to win this contest."
Fogarty said he was "beaten by the Currie master".
