Daniels walks out of reality show

Magician Paul Daniels has quit TV reality show The Farm after arguing about Iraq with US rapper Vanilla Ice.

When asked to calm down, Daniels replied: "I'm not going to calm down, you're the one that's shouting and I'm as mad as hell."

The three-week Five series follows nine celebrities, including actress Margi Clarke, as they live on a working farm.
