  • Thanks for following this extraordinary event. If you've not sponsored the team yet, please do, they've earnt every single penny
    1 year 2 days ago
  • All that stands between the team and their first shower for 8 days is a 2 hour drive. But as its sitting down thats just fine.
    1 year 2 days ago
  • The long knee jarring walk down has finished and so very nearly am I.
    1 year 2 days ago
  • Without these amazing people we'd all be still stuck on the first climb, or quite possibly in our tents.
    1 year 2 days ago
  • Time to say goodbye to the tents - not many tears there, but plenty when it comes to saying goodbye to the local guides.
    1 year 2 days ago
  • The team toasted their incredible achievment with a bottle of bubbly tonight. No room for a blowout tho, there's a 5 hour trek first thing!
    1 year 2 days ago
  • Chris Moyles is proudly walking around camp with a piece of rock from the mountain clasped in his hand. Bless him.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • The reason for the night climb is a practical one - the slate and scree under foot freezes making it a whole lot less slippery.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • The bitter wind last night may have failed to stop anyone reaching the peak, but it did manage to wreck four of the teams tents.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • Which meant after a brutal 9 hour trek to the summit the team had to put their boots on again and walk for 2 and a half hours to a new camp.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • Everyone down from the mountain, fingers and toes accounted for. Sore, brusied, battered and broken. But they did it.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • So all 9 made it - astounding. That was a brutal night, but once the pain dies down the team will be elated at what they've achieved.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • And Alesha made nine. Exhausted she made it to the summit after going through the pain barrier.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • Cheryl for one has already said she's never done anything so mentally and physically demanding and I doubt anyone in the team will disagree.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • A temperature of minus 15 and air so thin your lungs positivley burn with disappointment everytime u take a breath means u cant stop long.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • The summit of Mt Kilimanjaro isnt somewhere u can hang about at for too long - despite it being one of the world's most beautiful places.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • It was a stunning effort to raise a stunning amount of money by some stunningly determined people. Let's hope Alesha can make it too.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • Quite a way back Alesha is in severe pain, but is refusing to stop.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • Chris 'the mountain man' Moyles gets there to, how good is that.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • Kimberley, Ronan and Gary make it too - all three in agony
    1 year 3 days ago
  • At the summit, God knows how, Ben, Fearne, Denise and Cheryl make it just as the sun comes up. Amazing.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • At front of pack with Ben, rest of team strewn across the mountain. Itr hell on earth.

    1 year 3 days ago
  • The star canopy is stunning and under it the team are making a slow headtorch lit vigil to the top.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • Right then, this is it. Guess what, its freezing. The team have just been given the total and are buzzing.
    1 year 3 days ago
  • As if to remind us that we are perched on the side of a mountain, a fierce wind comes in and rattles the tents big time. No sleeping here.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • If you're wondering if u should sponsor them or not, please do. The higher the total, the bigger boost they will have to reach the top.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • Full of rice and spuds the team are trying to get some sleep in ahead of the big off in four hours time.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • As they leave tonight the team will be given one final total update to help them tackle the final leg of what has been an epic challange.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • Sore thighs, necks and feet abound - the team are trying to relax, which isnt easy. The moon is starting to show itself - itll be our guide.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • On the downside itll be dark and very cold of course. Everyone is being told to wear every item of clothing they have.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • The team are in fine fettle - they will rest, eat and kip now ahead of a midnight attempt on the peak.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • Ben, Kimberly and the man Moyles make it too - that's the lot - everyone is going for the Summit! Fantastic effort.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • Alesha, rock hard Denise and Mr Gary Barlow, bad back and all have made it.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • The other six are on their way up, fingers crossed they all make it. You'll obviously be the first to know. I'm nervous.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • Cherly, Fearne and Ronan have made it to High Camp and are elated. It was a beast of a trek but the sun shone and they did it.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • My God this a lung burster. We are at 4700 meters. Id work that out in feet if I didnt feel like death.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • Fearne Cotton is very special. Having been so ill just days ago she now leads the team up the ridge - and right behind her is Cheryl Cole.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • An emotional Radio 1 call in over the team now face a high ridge. Every step is a step nearer the peak, but its also stride into thinner air

    1 year 4 days ago
  • Wish them luck.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • Denise has recoverd from smacking here head on a rock yesterday and Fearne, although still not well is marching on.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • Food and 3 hours "sleep" will see a midnight departure for the top - a six hour walk that at sea level would take half an hour.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • At that altitude they will be moving a painfully slow trudge through ice fields. Mental and physical strength will be much needed.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • Right, this is it, the team are about to set off for the assault on the peak. A 7 hour uphill (of course) hike will take them to high camp.
    1 year 4 days ago
  • The team scrambled into camp with everything soaked - on the bright side its the nearest any of them has had to a hair wash in a week.
    1 year 5 days ago
  • After lunch at the top the weather God's who had smiled down on the team so far had the afternoon off and it lashed it down.
    1 year 5 days ago
  • The wall was scaled in great style by everyone, including virtigo sufferer Chris Moyles and Fearne and Cheryl who are getting over sickness.
    1 year 5 days ago
  • Chris: this makes Walliams' paddle and Shearer riding from Derby to Nottingham or whatever he did look like a doddle.
    1 year 5 days ago
  • Half way up Barranco Wall stopping for a rest and the new 900k plus total comes in - what a reception that gets!
    1 year 5 days ago
  • Bring on the wall! A 250ft rock climb coming up!
    1 year 5 days ago
  • Chris: for the past three days it feels like ive been walking through an episode of Star Trek.
    1 year 5 days ago
  • Cheryl, who was ill in the night and had to have an anti sickness jab, is taking slowly.
    1 year 5 days ago
  • 10 mins into todays climb and Kim sees her boot disappear into a mud hole. Just seven hours fifty mins to go.
    1 year 5 days ago
  • For Fearne to have made it to camp yesterday evening was a truly amazing effort - sheer determination not to be beaten.
    1 year 5 days ago
  • Freezing, freezing freezing cold night. Freezing. Everyone up and thawing out now and loading up for another huge trek.
    1 year 5 days ago
  • Fearne, who suffered badly yesterday, has woken up feeling a bit better. Today will be a telling one for everyone.
