The pair clash after Ruddock, 52, downed shots and pints with bra on his head.

Ex-Arsenal ace Merson, 52, later warns his pal his drinking is out of control.

The footie hardman, more than a stone heavier than on last year’s show, yells: “Don’t shout at me or I’ll get the hump with you.

"I’ll throw you out the f*****g door. This gives me the hump. F**k off.”

He then storms off, leaving Merson - who has battled gambling addiction - in tears.

Ruddock weeps as he tells viewers: “I’ve just had a barney with Merse. We love each other. We’ve known each other since we were 16.

“It’s all right if it’s people you don’t really know telling you ‘do this, do that’, but when it comes from someone you love, that’s why it hurts so much. It got to me.”

Merson credits the ITV show, which tracks a team of ex-England stars managed by Harry Redknapp, for saving his life.

After the ruck, he says: “No one wants to die. He’s a f*****g good bloke.”

Harry’s Heroes: Euro Having a Laugh starts next Monday at 9pm.
