I’m A Celebrity LIVE: Coleen Rooney at centre of drama amid immunity challenge fix row before medics rush to help her in BushTucker Trial – latest updates

Coronation Street Alan Halsall has told campmates about his first day on the long running ITV soap.

He says: ‘I remember just looking around and Mike Baldwin was over there, and Ken Barlow was over there and Jack and Vera and it was mind-blowing.

‘Everyone there welcomed me with open arms and it genuinely is like one big family.’

Sat around the campfire that night, Coleen tells campmates she’s had a happy childhood.

Speaking about her family, she says her mum was a nursery nurse and her dad was a brick layer.

‘We didn’t have much but we had everything we needed, it was a very happy childhood, I wouldn’t change it. I think that’s what has given me my morals and my way that I instil in my kids too, the way I was brought up.’

Alan says his childhood was similar. He says: ‘I had a really happy childhood but… without the support of my parents I wouldn’t be sat here doing this now.’

The klaxon sounds and the game begins.

Barry finds the first star and Alan grabs a second as Maura screams her way through the challenge.

As time draws to a close, Ant shouts, ‘This is really tense!!”

With just ten seconds remaining, Oti manages to find her star.

As they finish Maura says: ‘F**k me, that was good! I think I broke a nail.’

Ant and Dec tell the group they will reveal the amount of tickets collected and who will play in the final in the morning.

Maura, Barry, Oti and Alan now head over to the Arcade of Agony to compete for immunity.

Speaking of Celebrity Cyclone, Alan says: ‘We all want to get to that point, it’s like the final tick on the wishlist of I’m A Celebrity! I think we’re all excited and I think we’re all gonna go out there and do our best’.

Maura, in contrast, said: ‘I’m not particularly excited about it, I’m very nervous and I don’t really know what to expect’.

They meet Ant and Dec at the Arcade of Agony where they each are given a ‘Grim Ball’ machine, filled with various multicoloured balls and plenty of critters.

They have to put their hands inside and grab one ball at a time to win the tickets inside.

Back in camp and celebrities are talking about who has inspired them.

Danny says Bruce Springsteen became an idol for him growing up. Richard asks which celebrity’s life they would like to experience.

First to answer, Coleen said: ‘I think I would like to experience a day in the life of a royal.’

Richard joked: ‘You practically are a royal, Coleen’.

She went on to say: ‘There’s a lot of things that you don’t get to know about the royal family, I think I would like to see how they operate, day to day, week to week’.

Richard then said his would be Kevin De Bruyne as he said: “I’d love to be someone that was good at sport,’ while GK picks Barack Obama.

Melvin Odoom has revealed he was close to quitting I’m A Celebrity… days before he was the fourth contestant to be voted off after the ‘hardest night’ of his 18 days.

Viewers saw the BBC Radio 1 presenter, 44, break down in tears after he was forced to sleep in the Bush Telegraph hut after his sleeping bag was drenched in torrential rain during the night.

He told MailOnline: ‘I thought about quitting because I found it difficult and I thought the finish line seemed quite far away at the time but no, because I didn’t want to let my family down.

‘I was the first out of Strictly, and I was aware of that in my head because I let people down when I did that.’

Time runs out and the group have won two stars.

Coleen exits the booth and immediately declares, ‘I’ve got one in my ear!’

A medic appears to examine her and remove it safely with a syringe, a critter then crawls out her ear as Ant says: ‘Oh my god! It just jumped out!’

Asking how she found the Trial, GK replies: ‘I would like to never do that again.’

Danny and Coleen each win a star meaning they had two out of a possible four meals for camp.

As the klaxon sounded, Coleen was off to a flying start as the first celebrity to retrieve a coin and play the grab machine winning a ball and a handful of tickets.

But she appears too eager after putting her tickets in the coin slot instead of the collection box

Danny wasn’t long after and picks up a star in his first ball as a meal for camp.

Meanwhile, GK struggles to win balls from the grabber, as she said while being covered in critters: ‘Oh my god, they’re in my pants!’

Ant and Dec have explained to the first group how the Arcade of Agony works

They are each allocated a grabbing machine loaded with balls to win.

Every ball they won from the grab machine would contain a number of tickets that they could deposit into the ticket collection box.

Every go on the grab machine required a coin, which they have to retrieve from a box of fish guts.

They have ten minutes to try and win as many tickets as they can.

That morning, the campmates were surprised to see Ant and Dec enter camp for the second time that day.

They revealed that over the next two days the campmates would all be competing to win a ticket to Cyclone, which would guarantee the winner immunity from the next two vote offs as well as a coveted place in the epic Cyclone challenge.

They were told they would be split into two groups of four to take part in a Trial at the Arcade of Agony. There would be two winners from each group that would go through to the final.

The first four celebrities revealed to face the Arcade of Agony were Danny, GK, Richard and Coleen. With their game faces on, the first four celebrities got ready to leave camp.

Sitting next to her rivals, GK says: ‘Coleen and Danny, are you joking me? The two most competitive, mentally strong people ever.’

After Ant and Dec revealed Melvin was the fourth celebrity to leave the camp, Oti revealed she broke down in tears.

Oti admitted she had a little cry when the BBC DJ left as he was ‘so real, so raw, so genuine and authentic and a pillar of strength and support for me.’

After a quick recap of last night’s episode we head to the camp where it is sore heads in the morning.

After a night at the Jungle Arms, the campmates wake up feeling a little worse for wear.

Oti says: ‘I only had two glasses but I felt like I had a rough night! Everyone is waking up with hangovers, we’re all hanging this morning.’

However, the campmates were in high spirits, as they reflected on the night before.

Maura claims campmates are envious over her singing voice

Maura said of her Celine Dion rendition: ‘There’s a lot of jealousy down in camp this morning, I think a few of them might be threatened over my success as a singer when I leave here.’

I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! is now starting on ITV.

I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly have revealed the reason they were absent from the spin-off Unpacked on Tuesday.

The pair typically make an appearance on the ITV2 favourite after hosting the main show, but failed to feature during the latest episode.

It came as Tulisa also pulled out of an appearance on Unpacked due to ‘personal reasons,’ with the star later sharing on social media she ‘needs time to process’ her jungle exit.

Speaking on their Instagram Live series Jungle Club, which the pair present daily following the main show, Ant and Dec were quick to poke fun at their absence.

At first, the pair joked that the reason they missed Unpacked was due to a falling-out with hosts Joel Dommett and Sam Thompson.

Tulisa has broken her silence to reveal she ‘needs time to process’ her I’m A Celebrity exit, after sparking a flurry of speculation by deleting all of her social media posts from her time in the jungle.

The N-Dubz singer, 36, did not appear on the spin-off I’m A Celebrity… Unpacked for ‘personal reasons’, and was also noticeably absent when the evicted stars gathered to greet Melvin Odoom following his exit on Tuesday.

In a video posted on Instagram, Tulisa said: ‘I’m just doing a little video to clear a couple things up.

Just so you know, when I came out of the jungle, I felt fine first of all and then that evening my friends went to bed.

‘I was on my Instagram trying to have a nice little scroll at some funny stuff.

‘I was getting a lot of attention, a lot of bombarding in all the most positive way. But because it’s been a while for me I can get overwhelmed quite easily.’
