SAS Who Dares Wins plunged in new ‘cheat’ scandal after Amber Turner drama – with two recruits slammed by Matt Hancock
DISGRACED politician Matt Hancock got huffy when two fellow recruits stepped out of line on SAS: Who Dares Wins.
Love Islanders Montana Brown and Teddy Soares skipped a series of exercises during a task when they thought cameras weren’t watching.
And Matt blasted their lack of integrity — despite losing his job as Health Secretary after breaking Covid lockdown rules and cheating on his wife.
He said: “How can you be so stupid?
“I mean, of course you’ve got to do the whole thing, right?
“The Directing Staff put such an emphasis on integrity that you’ve just got to do it.
“There’s no hiding place, and there’s literally no hiding place in this case. It is about integrity!”
Matt’s rant comes after scenes that play out in Sunday’s episode of the Channel 4 challenge show.
The recruits are made to do six exercises around the camp.
While the DS spur them on most of the time, at one point the celebs are directed to go out of sight and complete a series of burpees.
But unbeknownst to them, hidden cameras are filming.
They catch out Montana and Teddy, who are both punished by having to stand neck-deep in a lake for hours.
Chief instructor Billy Billingham said: “I was gutted they did it, especially Teddy.
“He was caught blatantly and he still tried to hide it and that was upsetting to see.
“And Montana, same thing. When you’re caught, you’re caught.
“Just take it. She owned it better than Teddy.”
Smug fellow recruit James ‘Arg’ Argent, who has lost 13 stone, said: “It was quite funny because you’d expect someone like me to be the one to get caught cheating.
“Teddy was one of the people taking it seriously, and one of the goody goodies, like Montana.”
It comes after newest DS member Chris Oliver was accused of sending flirty messages to one of the contestants — Towie’s Amber Turner — behind his wife’s back.
This bunch really are daring.
BB’s AJ TO FLIP HOUSES
BIG Brother host AJ Odudu is looking beyond the TV spy house to build her own bricks-and-mortar business for the future.
The savvy star has set up a firm for the “buying and selling of real estate” to support a string of property developments alongside her media work, documents filed at Companies House show.
The sensible move feels a world away from the ITV reboot, which has seen housemates descend into disarray just four days into their stay.
Make-up artist Farida and NHS manager Kerry continue to clash over this week’s task and the group’s first ever shopping list caused tensions to rise ahead of tomorrow night’s first live eviction.
It comes after Jordan horrified viewers when he added mayonnaise to his Pot Noodle.
All in a day’s work eh, AJ?

STEPH’S LATE FOR LUNCH
STEPH McGOVERN was 30 minutes late for her own show – but her boozy night out at the Attitude Awards in London the evening before wasn’t to blame.
Her train back to Leeds Dock, where Steph’s Packed Lunch is filmed, was delayed so Simon Rimmer hosted her Channel 4 show until she arrived at 12.30pm.
Steph explained: “The train came to a shuddering halt, I threw a coffee all over myself, no injuries but I smell and I’m damp.
“An hour and a half later we still hadn’t moved, so we got booted off at Grantham and then ended up in a taxi.
“It’s taken us about seven days to get here.”
Steph’s Packed Lunch airs weekdays from midday.

ADVENTURER Dwayne Fields says the grub rustled up by his Endurance: Race To The Poles co-star Ben Fogle is scarier than their treks.
He joked: “We had to eat pemmican, dried tallow, meat and berries.
“After Ben burned that, I was scared of his cooking!”
The Channel 5 show concludes on Monday.
SHIRL SET TO MAKE A KILLING
THERE have been murders everywhere on TV from Midsomer to the Orient Express – and soon there could be a Murder On The Dance Floor on our screens, thanks to Shirley Ballas.
It’s the title of the Strictly head judge’s sexually-charged fantasy novel, published this week, and she says TV bosses want to turn it into a TV drama.
The book tells the story of dancer Lily Richmond’s investigation into a death on the competition floor – which Shirley teased is based loosely on her own experiences.
She told Chris Evans on Virgin Radio: “There were so many stories I wanted to write, 50 odd years of experience they didn’t want me to put in my autobiography.
“So I talked to my mum, and she said, ‘How about you write them in fiction and then the readers have to guess, did I really do that or witness that, or is it fiction?’
“We’ve already had interest for a TV series.”
