Barry McGuigan didn't hold back with his opinion on I'm A Celebrity campmate Dean McCullough as he did another trial.

BBC Radio One presenter Dean has done the majority of trials on the series so far, having constantly been put up for them by the public vote. He has had varying degrees of success - having only got a maximum of two stars last week. Dean even called out "I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here" as he quit the trial.

However, everything changed for the radio star on Monday night as he successfully secured a meal for camp. Dean managed to get 10 out of 12 stars in his Jack and the Scream Stalk trial. Show hosts Ant and Dec were stunned at his result. "10 stars, a new personal best – you even got a round of applause from me today," said Ant. "You do make us proud, you did try!"

When he returned to camp, Dean's co-stars were equally impressed as they congratulated him. Former boxing champion Barry joined in with the celebrations, however he gave a savage comment about Dean while in the Bush Telegraph. Speaking to the camera, Barry quipped: "He screams, he shouts and he’s overdramatic."

Ant and Dec have begged the audience to stop voting for Dean and let someone else have a go at winning stars. The duo discussed the show on I'm A Celebrity Unpacked and told the audience they needed to have a 'serious talk' about them constantly voting for Dean.

"Right, let’s all have a serious talk, and I’ll look directly in the camera here," Ant said as he angled himself to look straight at the viewers at home. "Oh God!" Dec jokingly shouted, realising that his TV partner was about to put his foot down. "I think it’s good to see other faces down there," Ant said, clarifying, "This is not a personal thing, and it’s not about Dean."

Ant got louder and more passionate as he continued: "It’s about us just seeing different people down there! And I think we want to see different people on the show being featured. Some people unfortunately aren’t getting - you know what, I’d like to see Barry do a trial, let’s see Melvin down there, Oti! But we find this every year when someone gets voted multiple times. You just get to a point where you go, ‘Who’s still voting for Dean?’ I don’t get it."

Viewers also echoed the hosts as they called for someone else to do the trials. "Time to watch Dean do another challenge. How boring the British public is," one user fumed on social media. Another added: "Looking forward to seeing if Dean p****s me off tonight," while one user posted: "The Dean show is starting now" along with an eye roll emoji.
