Horrified Helen Skelton issues Dan Walker stern warning after grim toilet confession on new travel show
HELEN Skelton was left disgusted after Dan Walker made a vile toilet confession in their new travel show.
Viewers on Channel 5 witnessed the long-term friends embark on their trip to explore Britain’s first long-distance path, the Pennine Way.
But during the episode, Dan Walker left the former Blue Peter presenter mortified when he chose to give her an odd gift.
While driving through the Peak District’s Winnats Pass, the presenter Breakfast decided to hand Helen a little metal piece tied with a crimson bow.
She was baffled, and asked: “What is that?”
“That, Helen Skelton, is a poo trowel,” Dan responded. Now that I’ve had some experience with this, okay?”
Dan told Helen that it was clean after double-checking that he hadn’t used the same trowel he’d brought.
Seeing the confused look on his pal’s face, Dan proceeded to explain when and why he had to use the trowel.
He penned: “When I climbed Kilimanjaro for Comic Relief, we had to use these occasionally to make sure that what you leave on the mountain doesn’t cause issues.”
Helen looked horrified and quipped: “I’m telling you now, if you do a poo anywhere that’s not in a toilet, I will be cross.”
It comes after fans were quick to scold Helen for making a small blunder on the recent episode.
In the first episode, the presenters started their journey at Bamford’s Edge in Derbyshire’s Peak District, before heading onto Yorkshire via the Snake Pass — with a quick stop in a campsite complete with a hot tub and barbecue on the way.
Along their journey, the pair tried out a lot of new things, including canoeing through a tunnel. But Helen made a bit of a blunder as she was describing this part of their adventure to viewers.
