Barrymore's snoring problem exposed

Michael Barrymore had a restless first night after becoming overly paranoid about his snoring.

The TV presenter was one of the first to hit the hay and, before too long, the ferocity of his nocturnal noises became apparent.

"That is bad, innit?" Chantelle asked a laughing Dennis. "That is snoring at its best!"

The concerns from some of the group finally woke Michael around 4am. Apologising, he made a swift exit from the bedroom.

"What I'll do at home sometimes is wait until everyone is asleep [before sleeping myself]," he told Jodie and Pete.

Such was Michael's paranoia that he then spent almost two hours by himself - smoking a cigarette, playing with a cactus and examining the insides of the kitchen cupboard - before returning to the bedroom.

Only 45 minutes later he rose again, however, deciding to abandon any further attempts at sleeping for the night.
