ITV I'm A Celebrity fans make demand as Dean and GK Barry struggle in 'impossible' trial
by Jasmine Allday · PlymouthLiveI'm A Celebrity viewers have criticised the latest Bushtucker trial as "impossible", following Dean and GK Barry's attempt to win stars.
The duo, who were selected by the public for the 'Down in the Dumps' challenge, initially expressed excitement about teaming up. GK Barry shared: "Ah, I'm so happy that I'm with you, ok that's fine! I've got a mate," while Melvin was confident of their success, assuring the camp, "They're gonna come back with 10 stars, guaranteed!".
However, optimism faded when they faced the actual trial. Dean was tasked with retrieving gold keys from the top box's hell holes, while GK Barry struggled below to unlock stars as water rapidly filled her chamber.
This led some viewers to declare the task "impossible" for the participants. One viewer vented on social media: "The trial is ridiculous! ! ! Its impossible to do #ImACeleb," and another echoed the sentiment, commenting, "Does anyone feel like that trial was physically impossible for the second person? ? ? #imaceleb #imacelebrity."
One viewer shared: "This challenge is impossible? not being able to breathe is horrid #ImACeleb," while another added: "Tbf they did try, but it seemed like an impossible task. No room to move freely and impossible to get the right key for each lock. 1 minute per lock!" A fifth wrote: "I'm sorry some of the trials are borderline impossible, it would've been hard enough only having one person on the bottom already with the keys and trying to hold their breath in the water full of animals #ImACeleb."
In relation to participants GK Barry and Dean, other fans of the show urged people to make a change.
A viewer made their feeling crystal clear, writing: "Can we all agree not to vote for GK or Dean? We need an interesting trial. The last two have been naff. #ImACeleb," while another implored: "Please vote for anyone other than GK and Dean tonight."
A different fan took to social media to say: "VOTE FOR TULISA OR SOMEONE OTHER THAN DEAN AND GK #ImACeleb," matched by another comment, which said: "Ok gang... Dean and GK Barry let's not vote for them again. It's not even funny that they're failing."
I'm A Celebrity airs every day on ITV1 and ITVX at 9pm.
