Charley and Brian have been told to pack their belongings because they are leaving the Big Brother house, albeit just to go on holiday.
This was the prize the two housemates won after claiming victory in a knobbly knees contest with the other contestants.
But while the pair were understandably quite happy at being told they were going on holiday, their delight soured quickly once they realised their break actually amounted to spending several days in a dilapidated caravan parked in the Big Bro garden.
To make matters worse for image-obsessed Charley, she and her caravan companion were given a new suitcase full of traditional British holiday clothes, complete with socks, sandals and knotted handkerchiefs.
After a very uncomfortable first night in cramped conditions, the holiday couple received a visitor from Gerry the next day, who remarked: "Charley without her clothes is like Charley with no nails. You know, she's nice and sweet without her clothes.
"Charley without her clothes is half Charley. She's not dangerous now. It was the same with Shabnam without her makeup - she was half Shabs."
If self-labelled party-girl Charley was angry now however, her mood turned incandescent when Big Brother revealed that she and Brian had failed the task due to her leaving the designated holiday compound.
"I did not break the rule! When did I stand there? I didn't, I just stood there for a few seconds! I can't believe you're saying this to me, it is not fair," was her typical diary room reaction.
