I’m A Celeb in new ‘fix’ row as viewers claim trial was ‘set up’ for show favourite
I’M A Celebrity has been engulfed in a new ‘fix’ row after viewers claimed tonight’s trial was ‘set up’.
The campmate in question, Sam Thompson, aka ‘Agent Murph’, took part in ‘No Time To Cry: Cry Harder’.
As Ant and Dec previously noted in the episode, Nella Rose backed out of the trial but bosses of the show wanted to get the best use for it.
31-year-old Sam came back to camp with all six available stars as he breezed through all the different rooms.
He avoided lazers, felt electric shocks, was immersed in Green Ants, swam with crocodiles and slithered through snakes.
The former Made in Chelsea star was so happy to do the trial, at the end he even rolled out of the enclave in an enthusiastic stunt.
After he counted all his stars with the presenting duo, the reality TV personality even declared how he had “the best time” doing the I’m A Celebrity challenge.
Fans then took to X – formerly known as Twitter in their droves as they claimed bosses used the trial again especially for Sam.
One viewer fumed: “Sorry but this is obviously a fix. Sam is too perfect for this trial, they obviously kept it for him! #ImACeleb.”
A second noted: “Sam is literally loving this! This is his best life trial! #ImACeleb.”
“Sam looks so happy to be a secret agent, perfect trial for him,” stated a third fan.
As a fourth raged: “Are they seriously using Nella’s Trial but for Sam? Except he looks like he is gonna love it! I smell something and it’s not fish guts…”
And a fifth added: “I was to busy scrolling through the tweets but is Sam doing Nellas trial that she backed out of? #ImACeleb.”
Even before he did the trial, another viewer guessed: “Bet Sam gets further than nella did on this trial!!! #ImACeleb.”
