I'm A Celebrity viewers make same demand as they respond to Janice Dickinson's sudden exit

I'm A Celebrity... South Africa viewers have been left making a demand as they reacted to Janice Dickinson's sudden exit. It was revealed over the weekend that the legendary supermodel was forced to leave the camp through injury.

The moment the campmates were told of Janice's exit was seen during Monday night's episode of the first-ever I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here spin-off. It was revealed that the 68-year-old was sent to hospital after she tripped over in camp as she walked to the long drop toilet during the night.

Janice was seen by the medical team on site and as a precaution, taken to the local hospital for further tests. Producers decided it was best for the star not to return to camp but instead to rest up.

In Monday's episode of the pre-recorded show, which was filmed last September in the new setting of Krugar National Park, campmate Helen Flanagan read a heartfelt message from Janice to her 'new BFF's' which began: "My beloved campmates, never have I ever had such an extraordinary experience with you animals. You are the new BFFs, loves of my lives and I’ll miss you until I get to see you again.

"Kisses to all of you. I love you and miss you. Love Janice." It then added: "PS Joe, I’m still p***ed at you and I’ll never get over it. All the love," after viewers saw tensions suddenly rise between the pair.

Following her exit, Janice insisted she could have gone all the way - and would have had a chance of winning. "I could have been the one to be second runner up or even win this series because I was just so steadfast and physiological with it. I was just waiting and biding my time with it all. I did my fair share in standing up, falling down," she said.

"Getting my face in the dirt. I felt like they could have possibly cleaned my wounds and set me back on my path in there. But Production made the right decision, in the end, to not send me back in." She added: "I’m just sad it ended that way. I think I could have gone back in and gone on further."

But following her unexpected exit from the series, I'm A Celeb fans have made a demand. @lilsthevirgo said: "Then they should’ve brought back Toff or Andy!" @shazzakentdavo commented: "Can @shaunryderx not go back in. Seeing as he took one for the team. Gutted he went."

@roseangel4779 asked: "Can they bring back someone? Put in to a public vote or just bring Toff back?" @samcrooks7 posted: "#BringBackToff&Kirk." But @t.0.m.3.3 argued: "Guys they can’t bring anyone back??? It’s not a live show, they filmed this MONTHS ago."
