I'm A Celebrity's Jill Scott gets urgent medical attention after gruesome trial

Jill Scott had a rather scary moment at the end of her first I'm A Celebrity trial, when a medic had to rush in to help her.

Having not had the opportunity to do a challenge so far, Jill finally made her I'm A Celebrity trial debut on Thursday night, as it was decided that she, Owen Warner and Mike Tindall should take on the Scareground trial, with balls for the beach barbecue tombola up for grabs, rather than stars for camp.

Jill s eemed rather reluctant to take part and was left wishing she hadn't as she was forced to get inside a giant tombola machine for Unlucky Dip, which saw her joined in the giant container by a load of jungle critters. Her mission was to retrieve as many different coloured balls as she could to try and boost her campmates' chances of going to the barbecue away from the jungle.

She put in a great effort during the 10 minute ordeal, often screaming: "This is disgusting!" while complaining about the smell. And, as son as the klaxon sounded to end the trial and she got out of the cage, Jill shouted that there was a cockroach in her ear. As a staff medic rushed onto the set to take a look, Jill remarked: "You don't need to look, he's definitely in there!"

The medic then used a suction device to get the big insect out, with Ant McPartlin remarking: "That's bigger than the one that got stuck up Fatima Whitbread's nose," in reference to a gruesome moment from series gone by.

Before she took part in Thursday's trial, Jill was made red hot favourite to win I'm A Celebrity, well ahead of nearest rival Owen Warner.
