Ashley Roberts endured a testing day on Tuesday as she tackled the UK’s ‘most extreme’ assault course which saw her grimacing as she fell into a pool of water.
The Pussycat Doll, 42, is undertaking five insane challenges in five days alongside Heart’s Amanda Holden, 52, in a bid to raise funds for Global’s Make Some Noise Charity.
And after Amanda kicked things off on Monday by climbing Blackpool Tower, Ashley stepped up to the challenge.
Ashley got stuck in the mud as she raced against time in the 7-28k assault course, whilst having to find £15,000 worth of donations hidden away.
Coined ‘The Nuts Challenge’, Ashley had 50 minutes whilst live on Heart Breakfast, where she was required to crawl on her hands and knees and climb up muddy banks and cargo netting through obstacles.

Ashley wore skin-tight red leggings and a matching jacket for her go at the gruelling course.
Underneath, she wore a white three-quarter zip jumper and white shoes and socks – which were quickly ruined as she plunged into a pool of muddy water.
Despite being covered in dirt, Ashley appeared in good spirits after completing all of the obstacles.
She held up bags of money as she posed in front of a red buzzer at the finish line.
After completing the challenge Ashley said: ‘It was all horrible in a sense.
‘I had a little rinse, but I still think I have mud in my hair that has not quite come out yet.
‘But yeah, it’s just been wet and muddy and cold as you’re going through it all. But you know, it’s worth it! It’s for good cause.’
A day earlier, Amanda made history by bravely climbing 518 feet to reach the top of the Blackpool Tower while hosting Heart FM.

The first challenge on Monday morning saw Amanda scale the top of the tower and claim the title as the first person to have ever done so.
Despite walking up the tourist attraction, Amanda seemed to be in great spirits as she posed with both arms in the air for a photo.
The daredevil managed to reach all the way to the top and touch the flagpole in an impressive 57 minutes and 59 seconds.
After completing the heart-racing challenge, the TV personality said on the radio: ‘Jamie, I think I should tell you now, they dared me, they said ‘If you go up one more iron sort of curly bit more, we will have gone higher than anyone basically’.
‘Wing commander Adam Collins from the Red Arrows is the only person to have got as far as me, and now I’ve gone higher than him.
‘So I’ve officially gone higher than anyone’s ever been!
‘It honestly, I was absolutely terrified, my knees and legs went to jelly. You sort of learn to trust the equipment.

‘I’ve never fainted in my life and when I got to the top, I suddenly thought ‘I’m going to here!’
‘Just donations, that’s all we need, this is for Global’s Make Some Noise, it’s honestly the most terrifying thing I’ve ever done in my life, and I’ve done it for all those small charities.
‘If you can afford it this morning, please give what you can.’
Amanda, Ashley and Jamie Theakston are celebrating ten years of changing lives by supporting small projects across the UK, including in mental health, food poverty, domestic abuse, homelessness, and loneliness.
