Also watching on from the audience were their fellow campmates, including Seann Walsh, David Haye, Scarlett Moffatt and Ashley Roberts.

The night had been running smoothly until just after Adam completed his Bushtucker Trial, which saw him eat pigs nipples, a spider and a sheep’s anus.

Back in the studio, Ant and Dec turned to Gemma Collins for her verdict on Adam’s efforts. Gemma didn’t hold back with her praise, calling him “amazing” and backing him to win.

However, David quickly cut in to challenge that view.

Addressing Gemma, David asked: “Do you think he deserves to win this after calling Jimmy the C-word a couple of times?”

He then turned directly to Adam, asking: “Do you think you deserve to win it?”

Adam hit back: “After that trial, I deserve it, yeah.”

“We’ll come to this a little bit later,” Dec told David, attempting to move things on.

“I think you should ask Jimmy…,” David continued, before being cut off again by Dec as boos rang out from the audience.

“David, we will ask Jimmy later, and we will speak to you as well,” he said.

“Cos a lot of that stuff was cut out of it, that’s all,” David replied.

“There was a lot of stuff that was said that was unbroadcastable,” Ant explained. “Which is why…look, we’ll get into all of this later in the show. You’ll all have a right to reply.”

“I knew it was going too smoothly!” Dec joked.
