I'm a Celeb fans angry one star's not on screen enough

From Digital Spy

Never has the I'm a Celebrity camp been so tranquil and harmonious... The nation got all teary-eyed when Nick Knowles gave away his luxury item of a pillow to Anne Hegerty, and again when Harry Redknapp spoke lovingly of his wife of 50 years to a visibly moved John Barrowman.

But still the people aren't happy, because some furious viewers are claiming that Hollyoaks star Malique Thompson-Dwyer isn't being given enough air time, and are demanding that ITV shows more of his personality and supposed relationship with Nick on the show.

Some fans even admitted that they had forgotten the 20-year-old actor was on the series, while others are claiming he's being "unfairly edited" with more high-profile campmates getting more time on screen instead.

(Mind you, it's hard to compete for a better story than Nick's brazen modest admission that he's jammed with Biffy Clyro on a roof in Soho...)

One politely wrote: "Can we please see more from Malique because Nick has said about their convos yet we haven't seen anything from him. He needs more air time.... come on people."

"Hi @imacelebrity just a simple request that we actually see Malique in the jungle - there is an uneven share of screen time this isn't right thanks just saying," a viewer added.

Another tweeted: "So how come we got to see John, Nick and Sair [Khan] show and tell us about their luxury items but we didn't get to see what Malique had or why he chose it? I feel he is being unfairly edited, we've barely seen much from him."

Some viewers were also surprised that it was Malique up against John to take part in the latest Bushtucker Trial at the end of last night's episode, with one arguing that they've heard more out of Kiosk Kev than the soap star.

The public decided that they wanted to see John take part in the Scary Rose, which will be aired on the show tonight.

Digital Spy has reached out to ITV for comment.

I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! continues on Wednesday (November 21) at 9pm on ITV, followed immediately after by Extra Camp on ITV2.
