Your support makes all the difference.Tensions mounted in Sunday’s episode of I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! when Jane Moore and Barry McGuigan argued over camp chores.
McGuigan and Danny Jones were voted by the public to become the new camp leaders, but quickly ruffled feathers by selecting Moore and Tulisa to wash up, and Coleen Rooney and Maura Higgins to act out duties of camp maintenance.
Despite Jones’s initial worry that women were being asked to do less physical tasks and that it could be taken negatively, McGuigan brushed it off. This proved a bad error, however, as Moore accused McGuigan of “misogyny” and later “ageism” when he used her age as a justification for his and Jones’s decisions.
Moore later said she was only joking, but both Tulisa and comedian GK Barry were left unsure...
Elsewhere in the episode, Rooney and Dean McCullough faced a gruesome Bushtucker Trial, winning nine stars for the camp.
Rooney also revealed what happened when she and husband Wayne met Donald Trump.
Follow along with our live coverage of tonight’s episode, below.
I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! continues every night at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
Coleen also spoke about meeting Donald Trump at the White House in 2018, and being so thrown off by comments he made about football players’ girlfriends that she told her mother he was a “dirty bastard”.
So if you missed tonight’s episode, there was a big shake-up in the camp with Danny and Barry voted new camp leaders.
This ruffled feathers, however, when Jane was asked to wash up for the camp over the coming days, despite her apparently requesting at an earlier date that she did not want to wash up.
Somewhat inevitably, it’s Dean who will take part in Jack and the Screamstalk.
“It’s not necessarily critter related,” Tulisa tells him.
Finally, we’re about to find out who will take part in Jack and the Screamstalk per votes from the public.
So while Jane says she was winding Barry up, she doesn’t seem to be all that happy about doing the washing up.
“Seems much like the 1950s!” she complains.
Tulisa and GK both believe tensions are due to rise within days...
So Danny and Barry are looking quite depleted after the arguments over assigned chores.
Barry says he didn’t mean to upset Jane, but Jane is saying now that she was only “winding him up” when she complained about being asked to do the washing up.
Anyway, dinner has arrived! The nine stars won by Coleen and Dean has translated to... um... possum?
To keep you up to date: Barry and Danny’s dispensing of camp chores went quite badly quite quickly. Jane accused Barry of “misogyny” and “ageism” after she and Tulisa were assigned washing up duties.
To recap...
Washing up goes to Jane and Tulisa
Water duty to Melvin and Dean
Camp maintenance to Coleen and Maura
Cooking to Oti and Richard
Wood collection to GK and Alan
“Slight rumble in the jungle,” Tulisa says, as Jane protests being given “the one job I don’t want”.
