For their first challenge, the celebrities had to jump from a height into the sea before swimming to a buoy in time to be picked up by a speedboat. The Challenge was brutal for all of them, and so when it came to doing the second mission in one day, Hannah didn't look in a good way. As the celebrities stood in line carrying their large backpacks, Hannah wavered, closing her eyes and sighing, having told her co-stars on the journey there that she "felt faint". Advertisement The famous faces were ordered to move off, but Hannah hung back and told the SAS instructors that she was calling it quits. Pulling off her numbered black arm band, she struggled as she said: "Sorry, I'm done." The special forces officer exclaimed: "You're kidding me?!" but Hannah weakly shook her head and said: "Sorry...I've reached a point." As she was sent away, she was then seen in a piece to camera before embarking on the mission saying: "I am pretty determined. I don't think I give up easily. Advertisement "But whether I'll get to the end or not? I mean...I don't think I'll go on the first day, I just wouldn't forgive myself." Sadly, that's exactly what happened, but she wasn't the only one, as Louie Spence also quit later in the show. Paul Cattermole's death changed everything… I don't know if I'll sing with S Club again, says Hannah Spearritt Hannah's exit was leaked ahead of the series starting this evening, with a source telling MailOnline Hannah "truly believed" a stint on the programme could "turn things around for her." They added: "But sadly she just couldn't hack it and walked on the first day. It was all rather embarrassing."
