Brains rule the camp as day 34 dawns in the Australian Outback, and competitors attempt to keep their closest allies safe.

Cracks and alliances start to appear in both the Brains and Brawn camps. The hidden immunity idol comes into play at tribal council.

The castaways meet for the first time in Cloncurry in north-west Queensland where they take on each other in the first reward challenge.

The moment everyone has been waiting for, the tribe merge, arrives. People struggle to figure out who to trust and it appears to be anyone's game, with a couple of idols in play.

When a reward challenge doubles as an immunity challenge, all bets are off, especially when the prize includes champagne and bar snacks. With both tribes heading for tribal council, fireworks ensue.

Two teams of five race to a pontoon where they must memorise a sequence of symbols, with a trip to an outback pub on the line.
