REVEREND RICHARD COLES
I’m A Celeb’s Alan, Danny and Dean plunge their heads into fish guts in a first look at them competing in a gag-inducing Bushtucker Trial.
On Thursday night’s episode, Alan Halsall, 42, Danny Jones, 38, and Dean McCullough, 32, are chosen by the public to face The Rank Bank.
The other campmates, who appear to have been split into three colour coded teams, watch on from the sidelines as hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly explain the rules.
The trio are tasked with retrieving coins from trays full to the brim with fish guts but the catch is, they can only use their mouths.
Up against a three-minute time limit, they must also transfer the offal-drenched coins into their team’s deposit boxes for the win to be valid.
Perpetually terrified radio presenter Dean looks immediately alarmed at the premise of coming into contact with fish entrails again, telling Ant and Dec: ‘No, I’m not ready’.

But as the sound of the claxon rings, he has no choice but to dunk his head into the briny slop with the others.
Corrie star Alan swiftly and fearlessly secures the first coin, McFly’s Danny Jones grabs the second in quick succession with Dean inevitably trailing behind with the third.
It comes after Tulisa’s abysmal attempt at Wednesday’s trial saw the N-Dubz alumni retrieve a measly five out of 12 stars for the camp.
The singer, 36, was nominated to take part in the Shock Around The Clock challenge.
Alan said: ‘After Fright Bus, I’m not surprised she got voted because those screams were loud, she was directly behind me and my ears are still ringing!’
Vowing to do her best, Tulisa made her way to see Ant and Dec to see what was in store for her.
They explained she would be strapped to the second hand of a giant clock, rotating around the clock face, while playing for 12 stars.
For every star, she was given a category and had to give 12 fitting answers in just 60 seconds.

With her general knowledge and memory failing her under the pressure, Tulisa was unable to name 12 UK cities and couldn’t recall the names of all of her fellow campmates.
Reflecting on her performance, she said: ‘When I was in there my brain just wouldn’t function, it just went blank, I was just trying to survive.’
Viewers took to X to react, writing: ‘Tulisa baby I need you to name 12 things quicker I literally have anxiety.’
‘Why is Tulisa speaking in slow motion or am I losing the plot?’, another asked.
Others demanded ‘a bit of urgency’, called her ‘hopeless’ and predicted the future wrath of her disappointed campmates.
