I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here fans are demanding justice for Aitch after he was robbed of a sweet victory.

The ITV reality series took a turn for the dramatic in Thursday night’s episode when it reintroduced the live Bushtucker Trial format for the first time in six years.

The 12 celebrities were forced to go head-to-head to chug the Cocktails of Cruelty as our plucky cohort – made up of stars like Kelly Brook, Vogue Williams, Tom Read Wilson and Ruby Wax – attempted to save themselves from elimination.

The camp has already been divided into two after a series of challenges saw one group sent into a revamped site, while the losers were shipped off to Doomsville.

Towards the end of the episode, close friends influencer Angry Ginge and rapper Aitch were picked to face off to see who can down their disgusting drink – made up of blended sheep’s brains, goats testicles and roaches – faster.

After a tense couple of minutes, Aitch’s glass was empty but he was told he had made ‘too much spillage’. Meanwhile, Ginge has consumed most of his, bar some last dregs at the bottom of the glass.

Given a last chance to down his final gulp and win, Ginge fumbled at the last second and spilt his own drink.

As Ant and Dec entered a heated discussion with the pair, Dec confirmed ‘neither one of you has won this round, there’s too much spillage. You are both in danger, and you both have to take your seat on the danger bench.’

In the whole debacle, Aitch had even put his head in his hands declaring ‘this is ridiculous’.

Although the presenting duo seemed to agree with the decision, fans weren’t so in agreement.

Taking to social media, some declared Aitch had clearly been done dirty.

‘Should’ve gave it to Aitch what a sham,’ BradleyXO wrote.

‘Baffled about the Aitch/Ginge disqualification. Aitch clearly won,’ @hannahbatt3rsby added.

‘Ant & Dec should of mentioned if there’s any spillage then you’re in danger, unfair on Aitch and Ginge,’ ‘@iya0x shared.

‘Naa I’d be fuming if I was Aitch and Ginge! It didn’t even look like they spilled that much tbh!’ @BethFoden agreed.

‘Aitch has won!!!!!! Felt bad for Ginge,’ @ryansoapking25 posted.

Although some were incensed on behalf of Ginge who was made to down the rest of his drink and still didn’t win.

‘If you drink that ginge you win (ginge drinks it) wait no you didn’t win. that’s wrong that,’ @jimmymutch reflected.

‘Making Ginge drink the rest just to make him lose anyway is crazy,’ @dystainak said.

‘Nah I’m actually fuming for ginge, they shouldn’t have made him drink the rest of it,’ @sonic_spoilers wrote.

Elsewhere, Vogue – who won against Kelly Brook – was left thoroughly traumatised as she puked up her cocktail the moment the challenge was over.

The Bushtucker Trials have been filled with shocking moments this year.

Earlier this week, Aitch wowed fans after successfully completing one task in which hundreds of insects and several more snakes were flung at him.

Meanwhile, in another Alex Scott and Shona McGarty were pitted against each other in Eye to Eye where they had to be the first to squeeze the juice out of a raw fish eye and fill a shot glass with it using only their mouths.

It was soon declared one of the most ‘disgusting trials ever’ by viewers – and no surprise!

I’m A Celebrity airs at 9pm on ITV1.
