I'm A Celeb fans vow to get Dean McCullough axed from show after 'true colours' emerge

2 hours ago 5

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! viewers have pledged to vote BBC Radio 1 DJ Dean McCullough out of the jungle first, accusing him of 'showing his true colours'.

This follows a series of clashes with fellow campmates and the Irish radio host being the most frequently chosen celebrity for the Bushtucker Trials.

Fans took to social media after Saturday's ITV show, where Dean seemed to be at the centre of any controversy. In the latest highlights from the Australian jungle camp, Dean was seen trying to evict McFly star Danny Jones from his bed, the Mirror reports.

He also refused to vacate his own sleeping quarters for late arrival Reverend Richard Coles. There was a tense exchange between Dean and Coronation Street actor Alan Halsall, who plays Tyrone Dobbs in the ITV soap, after Dean failed to wake up for a camp task.

Despite Alan's attempts to wake him to assist Loose Women's Jane Moore with a task - a camp rule - Dean remained fast asleep. Dean lashed out at Alan, saying: "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."

Viewers were left fuming at Dean's tirade and are calling for his swift elimination from the camp. Displeased fans took to social media to express their opinions.

One miffed spectator posted: "Dean is just something else! ! Give up the bed for the rev. Showing his true colours here". Meanwhile, another made clear her voting strategy: "Me voting to save everyone except Dean when we can start voting people out of this show".

Echoing the sentiment, someone else shared: "The ONLY time anyone should be voting for dean is when we're voting for people to leave". In a rush to see him ousted, one asked: "When can we start voting for Dean to leave asking for a friend".

Tensions didn't simmer down inside the camp as Dean and Alan locked horns, trading words back and forth. Dean asserted: "No, no, you listen to me."

To which Alan replied: "I've listened to you. Jane was halfway down here, that's why I went..." Not backing down, Dean pressed on: "I know. I get that but you need to give me a minute, mate."

Attempting to defuse the situation, Alan said: "I didn't say it how you think I meant it, but if you've taken it that way, I apologise. [...] I don't think you're gonna listen but that's fine. I didn't wanna wake you up [...] I wasn't having a go at you."
