Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins saw another three stars quit the gruelling show on Sunday, meaning a whopping nine recruits have now withdrawn from the latest series.
The programme returned to our screens earlier this month with famous faces from the UK taking on celebrities from Australia in a number of gruesome challenges.
The latest episode saw Neighbours icon Ryan Moloney, former player England cricketer Graeme Swann and Gladiator star Toby Olubi all leave.
Ryan, 46, who played Jarrod ‘Toadie’ Rebecchi in the Aussie soap, was forced to quit after breaking down in tears amid his battle with ADHD and confessing to his fellow recruits he was ‘mentally spiralling’.
He said: ‘I can’t remember if I’ve taken my medication twice or not. I can’t remember what happened to my knife and fork’ and said his thoughts were ‘uncontrollable’ as he was comforted by fellow recruit Dani Dyer.
Later in an interview he told the camera: ‘Before I got diagnosed with ADHD there was a lot of confusion as to my life and how I managed things and all the things that went through my head’.

‘My brain does not switch off. I could be absolutely dog tired and I do not go to sleep’.
Producers were forced to call the show’s psychiatrist, who said if the soap star continued in his current state he would be ‘ruined’.
Commando trainer Jason ‘Foxy’ Fox then asked Ryan how he was coping, to which he replied: ‘I’d love to be available for all of the challenge, I’d love to be here, but yeah, I am going to withdraw’.
Foxy said: ‘I think it’s the right move, because ultimately, this is just a course you’ve got the rest of your life to embrace. But please hold your head high, you’ve been awesome’.
Next Graeme, 46, said his farewell after injuring his arm during a challenge but said following his sporting career ‘accepted the risks’ of getting hurt.
His parting words to the training team were: ‘It’s been amazing, it’s been emotional, f*** me, you can break people can’t you’.
Finally Gladiator star Toby, 38, better known as Phantom left following a task that saw the contestants challenged with rescuing a hostage.

Last week saw the stars ‘rapidly’ climb up 27 flights of stairs with their heavy bags on in their latest challenge following MAFS Australia star Jessika Powerand actress Natalie Bassingthwaighte’s exits.

Jack managed to do two before telling Rudy: ‘VW staff.’
Talking to the camera before the series, he said: ‘I would consider myself not a quitter, I think I can be…
‘If I take that arm band off, I’ll be really disappointed in myself.’
When they returned to camp, actor Axle Whitehead, 45, went to see the on-site doctor about some shooting pain in his arm.
‘We’ve got neck pain, numbness and tingling in this arm, and recuded power in this arm,’ the doctor told him as Axle burst into tears.

‘You know what I am going to say, we can’t keep you in, we are going to have to medically withdraw you, we’re going to have to get it looked at.’
The next person to go was YouTuber Cole Anderson-James, 28.
He called a member of the DS to come out to him and was greeted with Jason Fox, 49.Cole said: ‘I’m ready to go home.’
Jason fumed: ‘F*** off, what are you talking about? Because your mate is gone?’
Cole replied: ‘I just don’t think I’m mentally strong enough.’
‘Mate you’ve given up,’ Jason told him. ‘You’ve taken the easy route, which you will continue to do when you walk through that door. Mark my words. Give me your arm band.
‘F***ing waste of f***ing space. F*** off!’
