Tension is already brewing in the I’m A Celebrity camp, and eagle-eyed viewers have taken notice. On Thursday night, Dean McCullough, a Radio One presenter, embarked on his third trial of the series, seeking redemption after his previous attempts yielded disappointing results.
In his first trial, he cried out “I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! ” and failed to secure any stars in his second challenge alongside social media personality GK Barry.
Dean’s goal for Thursday’s trial was to secure a satisfying meal for the camp, but things didn’t quite go as planned. He participated in the Lethal Lab trial, where he had to use his mouth to release stars while his head was enclosed in boxes filled with creepy crawlies.
Ultimately, Dean managed to collect four stars before deciding to quit the trial when confronted with a box filled with fish guts.
Upon returning to camp, Dean seemed elated with his four-star achievement and was met with praise from his fellow campmates. However, viewers observed that McFly’s Danny Jones appeared unimpressed, failing to crack a smile or offer any words of encouragement, reports .

Fans of the show sympathized with Danny’s apparent frustration, with one commenting: “Danny is absolutely not impressed.”
Another viewer noted: “Oop Danny does not look pleased.”
A third observer stated: “I think Danny is p***ed off which is completely understandable.”
A fourth fan wrote: “Danny McFly looks like he wants to kill him. Not buying his 4-star bulls**t at all.”

Another fan echoed the sentiment, saying: “Danny didn’t look too impressed at failing at fishguts.”
I’m A Celebrity viewers have rallied around I’m A Celebrity contestant Dean Gaffney, urging others to stop voting for him to participate in the gruelling Bushtucker Trials. Following his dramatic exit from Tuesday night’s Sinister Sarcophagus challenge, just minutes into it, viewers have taken to social media to plead with fellow fans to give Dean a break.
One fan implored: “I’m begging you all please leave dean and grace alone let someone else do the trials they have been through ENOUGH.”
Another echoed this sentiment, saying: “Can we agree as a collective to leave dean out of trials.”
A third fan chimed in: “Guys PLEASE stop voting dean in i feel so bad for him, don’t make my fav leave before he even gets the chance to win.”
A fourth viewer simply stated: “Idk who keeps voting for dean but it’s getting boring lads, leave him alone.”
The show’s hosts, Ant and Dec, also expressed their disappointment that viewers were denied the opportunity to see the full trial due to Dean’s early exit. Speaking on I’m A Celebrity Unpacked, Dec shared: “We are genuinely disappointed because you are prepared to do the whole trial and you want to see the whole thing. There’s a lot of time gone into the trials so when it’s called early your like, ‘oh’.”
I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! airs at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX
