Nella admitted: 'You’re here to face your fears, it’s not really a free holiday, so, you just expect the unexpected all the time.'
Sam insisted: 'We’re a great team. Sam and Nella… it’s catching!'
The pair took part in a question and answer trial which involved seven water tanks, one containing questions and six displaying sea creatures, with the creatures all being possible answers.
Nella read out the questions and Sam was tasked with finding the answers.
Once Sam was at his chosen tank which he thought contained the answer, he had to release a yellow star using only his mouth.
After the star was released they were informed by Ant and Dec if their answer was correct.
Sam ad Nella managed to win 10 out of a possible 12 stars for camp.
Ant and Dec gave them a round applause as they exited the water.
