ITV I'm a Celebrity in 'inequality' row as fans complain over slime trial

I'm A Celebrity ...Get Me Out Of Here! fans flocked to complain "where’s the equality here?" as campmates took part in the latest trial to win food for camp. In Tuesday night's episode of the ITV reality show Boy George, Mike Tindall and Seann Walsh took part in Grot Yoga.

Explaining the trial host Ant McPartlin said: “This is Grot Yoga. It’s hot yoga like you’ve never seen before. Each of you have to sit on one of these mats, inside the three tanks."

Declan Donnelly added: “If you successfully hold your pose for a minute then you get another minute to pass a star from one end of the Trial to the other and into the collection pot at the end, using only your mouths. Each star placed successfully into the collection pot equals a meal for camp."

Throughout the trial the trio were pelted with various things including offal and fish guts for former England rugby player Mike and comedian Seann. And 80s pop icon Boy George, who has been following a vegetarian diet in the jungle, faced slime and rotten fruit and veg.

Many fans took to Twitter to vent that they were not impressed. @ben_andrews1002 tweeted; "'Get over it' says George who just has slime, not fish guts ffs."

Viewers took to social media to comment about the trial (ITV)

@iamheatherh said: "Sorry but Seann & Mike are getting covered in fish guts while Boy George looks like he’s been on Saturday morning kids TV with his slime." @AndyBroxton echoed: "'Just get on with it' says the man who’s basically just got slime on him, as opposed to fish guts etc…"

@Rocontop asked: "George gets fruit and slime, the other two get rotten meat & fish guys…where’s the equality here?" And @emilyyalejandra said: "Sorry but slime IS NOT equal to guts."

@emilyyalejandra fumed: "Sorry but slime IS NOT equal to guts." @nikita_9215 asked: "Fish guts and George gets… slime?" And @gailjacko said: "Boy George has it well easy is this trial… slime v fish guts?!"

@grillzz8 wrote: "Boy George could have just gone to a Nickelodeon slime show. WHERE ARE THE BUGS." @swissfairy argued: "Blue slime is hardly on the same level as fish guts." And @yiaytokens wrote: "Nothing against veggies but it seems unfair that Mike and Seann are getting animal guts and George is getting slime."
