It is not enough to have "Nettle cream", nettles cause something akin to a chemical burn. Channel 4 / Endemol are inflicting chemical burns on contestants.
A recent court case in France held that contestants on a reality tv show are employees. If we could translate that to here, then making someone handle a bio-hazard without adequate protection could be a breech of health and safety legislation.
The bricks on bare feet could have caused injury, and as for the cactus, a puncture of the skin could cause infection.
Again Health and safety issues.
The egg thing is a delicacy so I am not commenting about that
How long is Channel 4 / Endemol going to flout health and safety, put contestants in harms way for entertainment purposes.
How far are they going to go?
Russian Roulette?

H&S legislation, blah blah blah. If you ask me it's gone too far anyway
