The jungle drama is heating up on I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! with ten celebs facing the challenges of the Australian wilderness.
ITV’s hit show has had viewers hooked from the get-go, flaunting a star-studded cast including the fabulous WAG Coleen Rooney, N-Dubz’s Tulisa, and TikTok’s very own GK Barry.
But as two new contestants enter the fray, their welcoming party to the jungle was far less than they bargained for.
In a twist in tonight’s episode, Love Island star Maura Higgins and the charming Reverend Richard Coles found themselves in the dilapidated Jungle Junkyard. However, a delightful secret lurked amidst the supposed despair.
Greeted by complaints about their grim new home, hosts Ant and Dec couldn’t help but chirp in through the intercom with an intriguing: “All is not what it seems.”
The pair examined their new home to discover a hidden haven complete with a plush double bed, a concealed comfy sofa, a bubble-filled bathtub replete with bath salts and piping hot water, a fully functional gas cooker, and a fridge door that revealed an array of fruit smoothies and a luscious fruit platter.
Ant and Dec then set the stage for their covert challenge: Maura and Richard have to convincingly play paupers to their campmates while enjoying their secret luxuries. If they succeeded, they would feast like kings at the Jungle Junkyard buffet.
With the gauntlet thrown down, Maura boasted: “I’m a great liar”, and reverend Richard quipped: “I’m gonna learn fast.”
Kicking off in classic I’m A Celeb style, the newcomers were thrown into the deep end with an immediate challenge. They had to hoodwink the original campmates into giving up one of their comfy beds in return for three food portions.
GK and Coleen became the first to fall for the ruse as they were sent off to deliver grimy dishes to the junkyard, where Maura and Richard awaited to play the part of cleaners.
The late entrants put on a dramatic show and convinced GK and Coleen that their stay in the junkyard was nothing short of miserable.
Their convincingly pitiful act was a success; the main camp felt for their plight, with the celebs describing the yard as “like a jail”, prompting Dean to gallantly offer his bed to the newbies.
This scheming pair have certainly made an impactful entrance, but can they snag the coveted title?
Maura’s chances look promising, despite her being one of the later ones to parachute in. Grosvenor Sport has given her odds of 7/4, suggesting she’s already a frontrunner for the win.
Grosvenor’s spokesperson Simon Kew said: “In 2019, Higgins made a splashy late entry on Love Island and looks to shake things up again as a last-minute bombshell addition to the jungle!”
I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! returns tomorrow night at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX
