I’m A Celeb: Ant and Dec have ‘blamed’ viewers for the show being boring

Earlier in the week, viewers of ITV's I’m A Celeb claimed that they are ‘bored’ of the show already as Matt Hancock is being picked for every Bushtucker Trial. Ever since Matt joined the camp, the public has been voting for the former Health secretary for every trial.

Direct questions to the host

Matt Hancock has so far been chosen for Tentacles of Terror, La Cucaracha Café eating trial with Boy George, the Who Wants to Look Silly on Air challenge alongside Owen Warner, House of Horrors and then another trial after that. In the last trial, he had to get up close and personal with even more snakes.

After the end of Sunday night’s episode, Ant and Dec went on Instagram and did a live session with fans, reported Chronicle Live. During the Q&A, one of the viewers pointed out that the show’s getting boring so a new rule should be implemented. Under this new rule, a contestant shouldn’t be allowed to do two consecutive trials. One unhappy viewer said:

Should be a rule that you can’t be voted for a trial if you did the previous one. Stop all this voting for the same person, this is going to get boring.

It’s your fault

The hosts emphasized that it’s only after viewers’ voting that a campmate is picked to do trials. Giving a blunt response to the accusation, Ant said:

If you want other people to do the trial then you've got to vote for them. If you want to see other people in the show, you've got to vote for those other people.

He also added:

Because as we know, the trials take up a third of the show, it's a big part of the show.
