I'm A Celeb: Dean McCullough quits bush tucker trial

I’m A Celebrity’s Ant and Dec made a cheeky swipe at Dean McCullough following a rule break as fans were left in stitches.The radio host has become one of the most talked-about contestants this year after dramatically quitting trials early.

And last night, the star was caught breaking show rules as he was seen slipping a teabag into a pot of boiling water, leaving hosts Ant and Dec unimpressed.

During Friday’s (November 22) episode of the ITV hit reality show, Danny and Dean headed down to the Bushtucker Trial area to face ‘The High Street of Horrors’.

Horrified to learn they'd be joining them there, Maura and Richard also headed down to the Trial area for the day’s Bushtucker Trial, not knowing what lay in store.

First to arrive were Maura and Richard and they were greeted by Ant and Dec and asked how they were enjoying the Jungle Junkyard.

Ant and Dec explained to the duo that as they successfully got a bed delivered to them from main camp yesterday, they won three portions of food for the junk food buffet.

They were also told that the Trial was their next opportunity to continue the charade, as they had to convince Danny and Dean that they had already taken part in ‘The Deadly Department Store’ to try and win 2 stars for their dinner, but failed.

Maura and Richard both got stuck into the pretence, as they covered one another in feathers and molasses and put on their best acting performance. As Dean and Danny entered Ant joked: "Dean welcome once again. Two out of the last three you shouted 'I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here. I'm not angry anymore just disappointed."

Ant then told Dean and Danny what they were due to face in their part of the Trial. There were three shops, each containing a number of stars to win for camp. All they had to do was find them within the time allocated for their shopping spree.

Dean and Danny stopped at the ‘Grim Grocers’ first, where there were three stars on offer and they had three minutes to find them. When the klaxon sounded, an eager Danny was in such a hurry to get into the shop, he tripped over. Plus, Dean had to come face-to-face with his arch nemesis - fish guts. Winning two stars for camp, they proceeded to the ‘Electrifying Electrical store’ where they picked up a further two stars out of three, within the three minute time slot.

The star they missed was revealed by Ant and Dec to be hiding in the kettle, as they teased Dean: “We thought you’d have gone straight for the kettle, we know you love a cup of tea!”

Viewers were quick to pick up on the dig after Deans rule break as they went straight to social media to share their reaction.

One viewer took to X, formerly known as Twitter and said: “THE TEA SHADEEE I CANT #ImACeleb.” Another commented: “Ant and dec are absolutely trolling dean now with stars in the kettle #ImACeleb

A third joked: ““How do you they know about the tea?” DEAN YOU ARE LITERALLY ON A REALITY SHOW WITH CAMERAS FILMING 24/7 #ImACeleb.”

One said: “We know how much you like a cup of tea dean? #ImACeleb.” Meanwhile another added: “THEY PUT THE STAR IN THE KETTLE AHAHAHAHA DANNY IS LOVING THE TEA JOKES #ImACeleb.”

I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! returns tomorrow at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX
