Fans of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! are already predicting who will be the first to leave the jungle following an explosive altercation in the camp.
In tonight’s episode, there was a significant clash between Alan Halsall and Dean McCullough regarding chores. When Alan saw Jane collecting firewood alone, which was a task meant to be done together with Dean, he decided to rouse Dean from his sleep.
A groggy Dean reluctantly got up but expressed irritation at being disturbed, prompting a terse exchange between the pair.
Dean confronted Alan with, “You can go back now,” only to have the Coronation Street actor explain he was trying to be as amicable as possible. In frustration, Dean responded, “Listen to me. If you’re gonna wake me up, you need to give me a minute, alright? It takes a couple of minutes for my contact lenses to get back working again, alright, so you don’t need to turn around to me and say ‘do you not fancy it? ‘ ok? And then turn around and walk away.”
Attempting to clarify his actions, Alan began, “I’ve listened to you, Jane was halfway down here, that’s why I went…” before Dean cut in saying: “Ok, I get that, but you need to give me a minute, mate.”
The confrontation concluded on a sour note, leaving viewers exasperated with Dean’s remarks and eager for him to be the first contestant voted off.
One viewer expressed their disapproval, tweeting: “I’m sorry, but who does Dean think he is? ! he’s actually so rude. #ImACeleb,” while another praised Alan Halsall, adding: “100% respect for @alanhalsall tonight on #imaceleb. What a fantastic example he’s setting for his daughter, didn’t rise to Dean being in his face, apologised even though he wasn’t in the wrong and walked away. Dean needs to get a grip, he knew what he was signing up for!”
Following the announcement that Dean would be facing the next trial with Coleen Rooney, calls for his removal from the show surged among fans.
A fan insisted: “The ONLY time anyone should be voting for Dean is when we’re voting for people to leave. #imaceleb,” and another queried: “When can we start voting for Dean to leave asking for a friend #ImACeleb.”
Another comment read: “Can Dean leave already #ImACeleb,” and one viewer questioned: “When can we vote out because dean needs to leave #imaceleb.” Meanwhile, a fifth person vented: “Urgh! #dean has to be the 1st to go. Such a diva. Oh and -Leave Tyrone alone! #ImACeleb.”
