ITV I'm A Celebrity fans know why Chris Moyles was snubbed for Bushtucker trial as he's predicted for next exit

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here fans were quick to put Chris Moyles in his place - despite him obviously not being aware of it - as he moaned about being snubbed for the latest Bushtucker trial. As viewers of the ITV reality show are now voting to save their favourites, who does the daily trial is up to the campmates themselves.

During the latest installment of jungle action, it was decided that Mike Tindall, Seann Walsh, and Boy George would take on the latest trial, entitled Grot Yoga. But Chris made a fuss after his efforts to put himself forward were ignored. “Says yoga, says George,” Mike said before putting himself forward to do the trial.

"I’ll put myself forward because I’ve not done a trial well for a few days,” radio DJ Chris said. This appeared to prompt comedian Seann who added: "I’m in… I’m sick of being a coward and I’m going to brave it." And Boy George, who was later eliminated from the show, was quick to agree that he, Mike and Seann should take on the trial.

But Chris wasn’t happy that he had been overlooked. "I’m like, 'Hello...' then I wasn’t in the running anymore. I’m the old friend [of Boy George’s], Seann's his new friend," he complained in the Bush Telegraph. And he didn't let it go as a short time later during a chat with Mike, Chris said: "Well, that escalated quickly… I'm like, 'Look, I’ll do it. I'll put myself forward.’ And then Seann goes, 'I’ll do it.' And then Boy George goes, 'It's me, Seann, and Mike!'"

Chris then accused the Culture Club star of having a "crush" on Seann. "Are you upset?" a grinning Mike asked. "I’m out then am I?" Chris also asked.

And it clearly made Mike think as he pondered if they’d made the right decision not picking Chris for the trial. "I’m still wondering if we should have maybe let Chris have a go," he said in the Bush Telegraph. "I don’t know. I just don’t know what it could be. It could be a massive height, it could be underwater. There is a lot of scope for Grot Yoga I think."

But I'm A Celeb fans were quick to point out the obvious reason he wasn't chosen for the trial. @rob49949996 tweeted: "Chris babe u literally got 1 star in the last trial no wonder they didn't consider u they want to eat tonight? #ImACeleb."

@TomaNUFC16 posted: "Chris moyles crying because he couldn’t do the challenge. You cried like a baby on the last one and got 1 star. No wonder they don’t want you doing it, then talking about BG behind his back to someone else, NOTHINGS NEW #ImACeleb." @LesleyMcDowell1 shared: "Chris, you brought back one star last time. Of course they're ignoring you #ImACeleb."

@BigTiddyMoth23 commented: "Why is Chris surprised others wanted to do the trial instead when he literally brought home 1 star #ImACeleb." @Molly51990786 added: "#ImACelebrity Chris not realising that everyone didn’t pick him to do the trial because they all actually want to eat."

Meanwhile, the outburst didn't go down well with fans who have said Chris should be the next out of his 'negative' comments. @mags_douglas said: "Get Chris out, he’s so negative towards Matt always making fun of him."

@kashkerr69 echoed: "Get Chris out he is just so negative!!" @sisterscqrlett fumed: "YOU LOT VOTED GEORGE OUT OVER CHRIS???????? oh bore off #imaceleb." @alicemayk18 added: "Boy George being voted out over Chris Moyles is INSANE. Are people watching a different show to me!? Gutted. #ImACeleb."
