I'm A Celeb first elimination likely to see two surprising stars battle it out
I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! has seen drama erupt in the camp between the famous faces, with Loose Women star Jane Moore taking aim at former boxer Barry McGuigan
The first elimination from I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! is a battle at the bottom for two unlucky stars.
The ITV reality show returned with a bang earlier this month, as famous faces including Coleen Rooney, Danny Jones, Tulisa Contostavlos, GK Barry and Alan Halsall headed Down Under for a stint in the jungle. Two new additions to the camp, Reverend Richard Coles and Love Island star Maura Higgins, arrived last week, and have quickly adjusted to life in the main camp, despite initially lying to their fellow celebs about their living conditions.
Viewers have been impressed by this year’s show so far, with co-host Ant McPartlin even declaring Tuesday night’s episode "the best show of the series so far".

The celebs were forced to take part in the gruesome Fright Bus trial to win a piece of luggage to take back to camp, and one famous face has been given a huge boost at the bookies thanks to their hilarious performance in the trials so far.
Maura, 34, was teamed up with Loose Women co-host Jane Moore for a Bushtucker Trial, and left fans in hysterics after she lost her temper with the 62-year-old journalist as she battled snakes and spiders. Now, the Irish stunner may be on her way to being crowned Queen of the Jungle as she saw her odds slashed to 5/1 to win the ITV show.
McFly’s Danny Jones is still favourite to win at 4/6, and could join the ranks of his bandmate Dougie Poynter, who won I’m A Celeb in 2011. Maura is in second place at 5/1, while iconic WAG Coleen and Reverend Richard are in joint third at 7/1. However, Melvin Odoom and Jane Moore are in joint last place at 200/1 to be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle, with Barry McGuigan and Dean McCullough close behind at 66/1, according to Ladbrokes.
Alex Apati from the betting brand said the big change could upset who will be crowned winner next month. "Danny Jones has led the betting from day one, but it's all change behind him, with Maura now hot on the McFly star's heels in the race for the jungle crown," he explained.
GK Barry is currently at 16/1 to win I’m A Celeb, while Tulisa Contostavlos is at 28/1, Coronation Street legend Alan Halsall at 40/1, and former Strictly Come Dancing professional dancer Oti Mabuse also at 40/1. The public vote usually opens 14 days after the first show, meaning the eviction could happen on Sunday December 1.
