I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! viewers are convinced they have spotted a telling sign that Dean McCullough is 'faking it' following its most recent episode on Tuesday, November 26.

Following the recent episode on ITV, all the campmates were forced to endure a commute on the Fright Bus. They bravely boarded the stationary bus for an unpleasent journey through various stops where they were dumped on by critters.

However it was Dean's handling of the group task that appeared to distract viewers who tuned in, with some even suggesting the BBC Radio 1 presenter may have been putting on an act for the cameras according to reports in OK!

It comes after Dean was chosen to face a Bushtucker trial five times in a row. He famously resorted to the iconic cry 'I'm a celebrity get me out of here' twice and once came back empty-handed without any stars.

However he defied the odds recently, returning to camp with a ten stars. While his campmates appeared to be in continuous distress during the bus trial, Deans composure did not go unnoticed by those tuning in at home.

A fan commented: "Dean screaming the least? Is he ok?" Meanwhile, another post read on social media remarked: "Na the difference in Dean doing the fright bus compared to the trials is actually embarrassing! Just shows how much he's been overdramatic and playing on it for the camera time/attention!"

And a different viewer expressed: "Suddenly Dean has no fear .... cementing the suspicion of his dramatics being faker than that of a premier league footballer."

A viewer expressed suspicion that one contestant's actions were a tactical move to win over viewers, commenting: "Oh Dean has just proved all our points he was doing it all to get the votes to do the trails to get the screen time."

Meanwhile, Tulisa is now next in line to endure the public's choice for a gruesome Bushtucker trial after Barry had to repeatedly assist her by dusting off unwanted critters.

The N-Dubz star will face her fear of the crawlies in tonight's show on Wednesday, as she will be strapped into a turning clock and grilled with a series of questions to get stars and bring food home for camp.
