Earlier in September, Arg threw himself into training for his charity challenge, where he was attempting to swim the English Channel for Stand Up To Cancer.
However, it has been claimed that he didn’t manage to complete his mission, which was being filmed for Channel 4’s Sink Or Swim.
The gang headed to Dover to start their mission on Sunday (September 8).
However, it seems fate wasn’t on Arg’s side as The Sun reports that the swim had to be aborted, with the stars being hauled out of the water due to bad weather with just five miles to go.
The stars each took it in turns to swim hour-long shifts between Dover and Calais for the show, according to the publication.
