Vanessa, who seemed to have an on-screen breakdown when she appeared in the first celebrity edition of the reality television programme, is the judge as the current housemates are accused of not living up to expectations.

She tells them: “I am Judge Feltz and I will be presiding over this trial.

“Welcome to the final judgment.”

Former contestants John McCririck, Saira Khan, Austin Armacost and Luisa Zissman are called as witnesses to give their accounts.

Each housemate enters the dock and Judge Feltz reminds them of what they had told the public to expect from them before they appeared on the Channel 5 show.

A witness is then called to the stand to further question the housemate.
