ITV’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! viewers saw Loose Women star Jane Moore brand radio host Dean McCullough a ‘stalker’ following a tense trial on the reality show

I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star Jane Moore branded her fellow contestant Dean McCullough a “stalker” in an unexpected outburst.

The 62-year-old Loose Women star and the 32-year-old radio host endured a testy trail called the Fright Bus before returning to the camp with bags full of treats. First, the celebrities had to endure a horrifying challenge where they were sealed inside a bus and tasked with unlocking rewards while spiders, mealworms, cockroaches and more rained down upon them.

The celebrities looked on edge as they screamed through the challenge while being covered in insects and creepy crawlies. Upon leaving the bus, each star was rewarded with some luggage – which included a range of items from an apple and disposable camera to a sequin dress and chocolates.

McFly star Danny Jones arguably won the best reward as he had a guitar in the case that he was handed. The instrument was from his home and had messages and drawings scribbled on it by his young son. The chart-topping star gently strummed his strings and started to sing as the celebrities gathered around the campfire.

He broke into the 2010 Top 5 McFly single Shine A Light – and the rest of the camp joined in. Dean, who is a fan of the band, loudly sang along – leading Jane to surmise that he was losing his mind over being able to sing a McFly song with one of the talented members of the band.

Entering the Bush Telegraph, the talk show star said: “Dean who I think is a McFly superfan, stroke stalker is in his element.” And, indeed, Dean himself didn’t believe his luck. Wearing a glittering dress that he discovered in his own luggage, the radio star gasped: “Oh my god. I’ve lost my mind. Worth the gold dress.”

Later, Dean was relieved to discover he wasn’t nominated to take part in the next trial. He had been put forth by the public for almost every challenge that had been on offer in the week before. Instead, Jane and Love Island star Maura Higgins were tasked with retrieving stars from an obstacle course that was submerged in water.

Viewers began to question if Dean’s repeated trials had exposed a ‘calculated’ side to him. One viewer wrote on X while watching Maura endure a trial: “Difference between dean and Maura is you can actually see she is scared and shaking…dean just wanted airtime #ImACeleb.” And others are now hoping the radio star will be the first to be voted off the show. One wrote: “Can we all agree when the time comes that we’re voting Dean out first. Cannot stand the man, all for attention. #imacelebrity2024 #ImACeleb.”
