I'm A Celebrity viewers are convinced Dean McCullough's run of doing every Bushtucker Trial will come to an end. The Radio 1 DJ has struggled with the challenges presented by the jungle so far.

However, his reactions to the trials have only served to encourage the general public as he has been voted to complete six Bushtucker Trials in a row. Dean was once again tasked with competing the challenge on Monday's show with Jack and the Scream Stalk.

The DJ was forced to ascend a castle rock climbing frame and put his hand in 12 different compartments to win a star. However, each box was filled with a number of critters.

Dean looked like he had overcome his fears as he put in his best performance yet and won 12 stars for the camp. Viewers following the show on social media platform X are keen for Dean's continuous run of being voted for trials to come to an end.

Laura said: "Really hope Dean isn't doing next trial." Suzy commented: "I will give Dean credit. He did well on that trial. But please DON'T vote him again."

Laura commented: "Right SERIOUSLY... anyone who saw that preview of The Fright Bus needs to vote for someone that isn't Dean for the trial" @Geeky said: "Please don’t vote Dean for the trial on @imacelebrity give others a chance."

Viewers are convinced Dean's replacement as the Bushtucker Trial guinea pig could come in the form of Maura Higgins. The Love Island star entered the camp as a late addition last week and is yet to be voted for a challenge.

However, viewers were taken aback by her scared reaction to the Fright Bus challenge, which will be broadcast in tomorrow's episode. The challenge gives stars the opportunity to win a piece of luggage each from the luggage rack, described to contain holiday essentials, and even a tasty treat.

Maura was worried about the prospect and relied on some words of reassurance from Alan. The contestant sat at the back of the bus as she hoped this is where she would be safest.

However, she was stunned to realised this was actually the worst seat for the challenge as it means she will have to endure the longest trip. Viewers said Maura's scared reaction will mean she is likely to be nominated by the public to complete the trials and could take the position that has been held by Dean so far in the contest.

@Twellywatcher said: "Maura will scream which will probably get her to become the new Dean" Chlo posted: "Maura is going to be the next Dean and getting voted for all the trials after that"

Daisy commented: "I reckon Maura is not going to do well with these bugs, she may well be the new Dean" Sara said: "Who is going to scream the loudest, Maura or Dean". I'm A Celebrity continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV and ITV X
