I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! started tonight, as you may have been able to tell from your Twitter timeline.
Tinchy Stryder and Michael Buerk were the first to meet and very fun to watch. Not awkward at all. We predict a definite bromance coming on.
Can we just watch Michael and Tinchy making small talk for the whole hour? #ImACeleb @antanddec
— Fiona Henderson (@ginger_ninja24) November 16, 2014
There was this theory.
Tinchy Stryder is befriending lots of old men lately. Maybe he's spreading his chips, looking to sneak into somebody's inheritance #ImACeleb

But it was a bit like this famous Big Brother moment when we were first introduced to the celebs.

These guys were voted to go into the celebrity slammer – basically a prison in the jungle with everything you wouldn’t want to be around.
Why did you lot pick this lot to face the Celebrity Slammer? #ImACeleb pic.twitter.com/Xa5yBAvNKH

By the time they got on the helicopter, Gemma gave us a taste of what the next few weeks were going to be like.
And that's only on the helicopter 😂😂😂 #ImACelebrity pic.twitter.com/bJRlc9Fe3i

In the end she got out of the helicopter and into a car.
“I may have cracked at the first hurdle, but it’s like the turtle and the slug, or the horse and the rabbit. I can’t remember what one it was” – Gemma Collins.
Who can forget the famous parable of the horse and rabbit?. #ImACeleb

She may have set herself up.
Gemma Collins has just automatically made herself the new Helen Flannigan #ImACeleb
— Sam Stanley (@WildAngel92) November 16, 2014
Despite her claims that she could be the next Bear Grylls.
Something tells me Gemma Collins will not be the next Bear Grylls #imacelebrity

A zip wire happened. People didn’t like it.
It made Nadia pee.
'A little bit of pee came out' And that's why she was sacked from her job in lingerie #ImACelebrity

And Kendra tried to get Michael Buerk to twerk.
How can that yank try and get Michael Buerk to twerk #imacelebrity
— Sean Tomlinson (@RadioSeanUK) November 16, 2014
Thankfully it didn’t happen.
Before long, our first threat of a quit occurred. Predictably it was Gemma, after having to walk to the celebrity slammer.
And Gemma's already talking about quitting & saying it's the worst thing she's done in her life 😂 she's been there 5 mins #ImACelebrity
— aisling❤️ (@aislingmulcair1) November 16, 2014
But we have to admit, she is quite fun to watch. Noticeably a lot of viewers were attacking her looks rather than her fairly loud screams and general behaviour.
Gemma has cankles wedged into walking boots. A sweat line is seeping out below her gunt. Gemma works glamour like no other #ImACelebrity
— Katie Hopkins (@KTHopkins) November 16, 2014
And we learnt Rio Ferdinand doesn’t understand what the word literally means.
I haven't been watching it but I hear there is some big personalities in #ImACelebrity this year…….literally.
— Rio Ferdinand (@rioferby5) November 16, 2014
But this was the truest tweet regarding Gemma.
You think you have it bad, Gemma? Iceland are trying to sell us something called a CHICKEN CROUTON LOLLIPOP #ImACeleb
— Yahoo Celebrity UK (@YahooCelebUK) November 16, 2014
Everyone was waiting for for Welling painter and decorator-turned pro footballer Jimmy Bullard to be funny.
And re-create this famous celebration.

In the end, we discovered he’s a bit of a wimp.
The celebrities not in the slammer had to skydive and locate a shape on the ground, in order to free a celebrity from the slammer. That meant Kendra had to face her ultimate fear… heights.
After which she claimed to have “done the impossible”.
Doing the impossible would have been jumping out of the helicopter and floating alongside it #imacelebrity

Everyone was impressed with Melanie’s bravery though… and Jimmy’s lack of it.
Mel is superb. That's what we need! Rather than those girls crying over zip wires. Getting stuck in. 👍 #ImACelebrity x

Back in the slammer, Gemma made something out of porridge… She called it a porridge pate.
She's frying porridge!!! Pmsl #imacelebrity
— Chas Rawicz (@ChasRawicz) November 16, 2014
It was “quite simply, stunnin’”.
She then became the first to shower. No surprise it was accompanied by screaming though.
I do not wanna hear gemma making those noises again in my life #pleaseno #ImACelebrity
— debbie cohen (@debbiecohen21) November 16, 2014
The celebs at croc creek decided that Carl “Foggy” Fogarty was the first celeb they should rescue from the Celeb Slammer… but that also meant he was also the first to face a bush tucker trial – snakes in a drain.
No way, this would be the worse thing ever. Like I'm in the MRI scanner with snakes. Absolute hell #ImACelebrity
— Jo Williams (@Jo_Williams) November 16, 2014
By the end there were 40 snakes in there with him… Foggy was not bothered. He won all the stars.
He Looks Like He's Enjoying The Snakes Company 😕 #ImACelebrity
— MadamBawse (@MadamBawse) November 16, 2014
After the twelve minutes he spent with snaked slithering all over him, he found one in his shorts while talking to Ant and Dec. He found it funny.
Foggy is fearless #ImACelebrity
— The Fresh Prince (@_TY_97) November 16, 2014
And given the choice of taking the food with him to croc creek or giving it to the people left in the celeb slammer… he of course took it with him.
"the food goes with me" life philosophy right there #ImACelebrity
— Emma (@Serenity03_K64) November 16, 2014
It made Gemma want to leave/think she was going to die.
It's a good job Gemma isn't melodramatic or anything. #imacelebrity
— David Bedwell (@DavidBedwell) November 16, 2014
Jimmy got picked for the bush tucker trial… the tunnel of terror. How do people never learn that by being afraid you only get made to do scarier things?!
Jimmys gonna get 0 stars, he can barely put his hand in a box without screaming #ImACelebrity
— Jordon Walker (@Jordonwalker97) November 16, 2014
I’m A Celebrity returns tomorrow, tune in and you’ll most likely see Jimmy crying and almost definitely hear Gemma screaming.
