I'm A Celebrity's Coleen Rooney faced a medical emergency after a Bushtucker Trial turned nasty. On Wednesday's episode, fans watched as Coleen, alongside Danny Jones, GK Barry and Reverend Richard Coles, tackled the Arcade of Agony.
The celebs had to nab balls from claw machines, each ball netting them tickets for the ticket collection box. To operate the machines, they needed coins hidden in fish guts, with only 10 minutes to grab as many tickets as possible.
The top two ticket earners would advance towards the coveted Cyclone challenge. True to form, the trial showered them with bugs, including mealworms, crickets, and cockroaches.

Coleen, who was quick to snag a coin, soon discovered a critter had burrowed into her ear. After the trial, she exclaimed: "I've got one in my ear!" A medic rushed to assist, attempting to extract the bug with a syringe, but it wriggled free on its own.
Ant couldn't hide his shock, exclaiming: "Oh my god! It just jumped out!" In a twist, Coleen's ordeal won viewers' hearts, propelling her past Danny as the new favourite to win the jungle crown, reports the Mirror.
Loose Women's Jane Moore, radio personality Dean McCullough, singer Tulisa Contostavlos, and Melvin Odoom were the latest celebs to be booted out of the Aussie jungle. With the finale just around the corner, fans are rooting for their favourites to clinch the coveted King or Queen of the Jungle title.
Danny was once the hot favourite to win the show, but he has been dethroned for the first time since the series began. Wagatha Christie icon Coleen has now emerged as the new favourite to win, with Grosvenor Sport revealing her odds at 5/4, while Danny Jones is at 7/4.
Richard Coles is close behind with 4/1, followed by Maura Higgins at 16/1. The other stars' odds stand at GK Barry at 25/1, Alan Halsall at 33/1, Oti Mabuse at 66/1, and both Barry McGuigan and Melvin Odoom at 150/1.
A spokesperson for Grosvenor Sport stated: "Coleen Rooney has emerged as the new favourite to win I'm a Celebrity overnight, knocking Danny Jones off his perch for the first time this series."
