I’M A CELEB fans are convinced that an iconic show challenge is on the brink of return after spotting a clue.
Many think that we haven’t seen the last of the junkyard – a secret camp where new arrivals The Reverand Richard Coles and Maura Higgins first went to when they arrived.
The Reverand and the Love Island star were the first to face the challenge last week.
Then they got everyone feeling sorry for them as they returned to camp, but there was a twist when, unbeknownst to the rest of the camp, their makeshift ‘prison‘ was full of luxuries.
As the stars entered the jungle, they feared the worst – but were assured by Ant And Dec that it wouldn’t be as bad as they thought.
They had a luxurious double bed, a hidden sofa, a gas cooker, hidden fridge door stocked with fruit smoothies and a platter and even a bathtub.
The new campers had to convince the original contestants to give up their beds to win three food portions.
Then GK and Coleen brought dishes to the junkyard to clean, and they went about pretending they had the rough end of the stick, making the campers feel sorry for them.
In another challenge, they had to dump offal on poor Melvin. The duo summoned the best of their acting abilities to convince him that they, too, were being soaked—when, in fact, they gorged on fruit at the junk food buffet.
And then they recruited The Sun’s very own Jungle Jane Moore compete in a challenge together for treats.
And now Alan, Danny and Dean have taken on the Rank Bank in a Bushtucker Trial where all three campmates compete against each other in a series of challenges to win money for their team.
Many fans have been intrigued to see a ‘playfully wicked’ streak develop in The Reverend, as he convinced the camp to feel sorry for him.
Maura said: “I’m a good liar,” to which holy man Richard said, “I will learn fast.”
Viewers are now convinced that, with the challenge over, we haven’t seen the last of the tomfoolery.
One fan took to a forum to ask, “Just wondering, with a team split coming up and the cash card scenario, will the Junkyard come into play?”
“Either, winning team gets luxury in the Junkyard, or, for a twist, the worst team gets sent there, but this time, it really is the “poor” camp with all luxuries removed and only rice and beans on the menu…”
In reply to this another fan said: “With teams of four it would be very cramped in there don’t you think? Only two would be able to sleep in the comfy bed or sit on the couch. I know it’s like that in the main camp but you are talking about a team ‘winning’ the luxury camp so why would two of four get the comfort?”
The original person who posted this clarified: “I suggested two scenarios. Either it remains luxury for a winning team or it could revert to being a poor camp for losing camp mates, with luxuries removed, which would create more space.”
Another fan replied, “That sounds great. I hope it happens. It would show the campmates how they really are as people, not trying to hide themselves as they do at present. It’s the best idea I have heard in ages.”
