Over I’m A Celebrity‘s two decades on screens the Bushtucker Trials have produced heart-stopping and disgusting moments.

From eating bugs, to be buried alive, every year the tasks have been made harder and harder.

The more stars that are won during a Bushtucker Trial, the more food the hungry campers will get.

The gruesome trials are voted for by the public, and usually involve just one camp-mate but sometimes they go in pairs.

Trail eleven – The Rank Bank

Alan, Danny and Dean will take on The Rank Bank in tonight’s episode of I’m a Celebrity.

They will digging through fish guts for coins, using only their mouths in a twisted version of bobbing for apples.

Each coin will win credit for their teams, so the revolting challenge is sure to be thrilling.

The camp mates will have to claim three coins to win and they will have to drop them in a deposit box before their competitors.

Dean has been criticised for his behaviour which has included asking Danny to sleep in the junkyard while he slept in the luxury camp.

Kim Woodburn, a former I’m a Celebrity contestant, slammed his choice.

She said: “Look, a bigger coward I don’t think I’ll ever meet in my entire life. I can put up with that, but I can’t put up with his selfishness.”

Fans are hoping that the challenge will be a chance for Dean to win some stars for his team.

Tulisa took on her first solo trial which saw her being spun around on a giant clock.

In Shock Around The Clock, she was doused in bugs as Ant and Dec asked her questions.

Sadly, her general knowledge failed her and Tulisa only walked away with five stars.

When she was released from the clock, she said: “When I was in there my brain just wouldn’t function, it just went blank.

“I was just trying to survive.”

However, after completing the trial, the N-Dubz star was happy with the amount of stars she got.

Stars: Five.

Trial nine — Fright at the End of the Tunnel

i’m A Celebrity is back for its 24th series, with a batch of famous faces living in the Aussie jungle. The Sun’s Jake Penkethman takes a look at the stars on the show this year..

Coleen Rooney – Arguably the most famous name in the camp, the leading WAG, known for her marriage to Wayne Rooney, has made a grand return to TV as she looks to put the Wagatha Christie scandal behind her. The Sun revealed the mum-of-four had bagged an eye-watering deal worth over £1.5million to be on the show this year making her the highest-paid contestant ever.

Tulisa – The popstar and former X Factor judge has made her triumphant TV comeback by signing up to this year’s I’m A Celeb after shunning TV shows for many years. Known for being a member of the trio, N-Dubz, Tulisa became a household name back in 2011 when she signed on to replace Cheryl on ITV show The X Factor in a multi-million pound deal.

Alan Halsall – The actor, known for playing the long-running role of Tyrone Dobbs on ITV soap opera Coronation Street, was originally signed up to head Down Under last year but an operation threw his scheduled appearance off-course. Now he has become the latest Corrie star to win over both the viewers and his fellow celebrities.

Melvin Odoom – The Radio DJ has become a regular face on TV screens after rising to fame with presenting roles on Kiss FM, BBC Radio 1 and 4Music.

Danny Jones – The McFly star was drafted into the programme last minute as a replacement for Tommy Fury. Danny is the second member of McFly to enter the jungle, after Dougie Poynter won the show in 2011. He is also considered a rising star on ITV as he’s now one of the mentors on their Saturday night talent show, The Voice, along with bandmate Tom Fletcher.

Jane Moore – The Loose Women star and The Sun columnist is braving the creepy crawlies this year. The star is ready for a new challenge – having recently split from her husband.
