I’m A Celeb viewers praise ‘duo we never knew we needed’ as two celebs form unlikely pair

Fans of I’m A Celebrity have fallen in love with an unlikely duo who have formed a strong friendship in the jungle.

I’m A Celebrity returned to our screens on Sunday as Ant and Dec ushered in ten new celebrities for an experience they’ll never forget in the Australian jungle.

Fans have been loving the new campmates and after Tuesday’s episode, they’re also loving a new bromance that has formed between McFly’s Danny Jones and star Alan Halsall.

The pair teamed up to try and win their fellow campmates luxury items and were required to answer questions about the celebrities. The duo were able to successfully retrieve eight out of ten of the luxury items, but viewers were more excited about the new pairing.

One person took to to express: “The duo we never knew we needed,” alongside a crying with tears of laughter emoji. Another fan of the show penned: “Iconic duo we love it,” while somebody else gushed: “Love these two!”

Yet another wrote: “Adore this duo,” while a fifth commented: “Love them both! Top two.” Elsewhere in Tuesday’s episode, Dean McCullough took on the latest trial but it didn’t end so well for the Radio 1 presenter. He was tasked with standing in an Egyptian Mummy which slowly filled up with sand and he raced to answer questions.

However, after only correctly answering two questions, Dean decided to call out “I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here.”

This meant Dean had to return to camp and tell his fellow campmates he’d only won two stars in the trial.

Viewers at home thought he’d made a mistake by quitting the challenge and assumed his exit from it would mean he would be facing future challenges.

One person said: “Even though I do feel sorry for Dean with the trial I am going to vote him purely to make him fight his fears.”

Another added: “I think dean will shed tears when he gets told he’ll be doing the trial bless him.”

Someone else commented: “the whole of the UK voting dean for the next trial after saying ‘i’m a celebrity get me out of here’.”

The fans predictions came true as both Dean and GK Barry were told by Ant and Dec that they’d be facing the next Bushtucker challenge.

I’m A Celebrity continues tonight at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX followed by I’m A Celebrity: Unpacked after the main show on ITV2.
