I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! viewers took to social media to have their say on the ITV show trial
I’m a Celebrity fans were quick to complain about Ruby Wax’s Bushtucker trial.
The 72-year-old comedian is currently one of the celebs in the jungle camp on the ITV programme, and during Monday evening’s episode (December 1), audiences witnessed her tackle the Misfortune Tellers challenge.
Ruby was required to reach into or clamber inside various “misfortune telling” contraptions whilst attempting to collect stars to swap for the camp’s meals, all while contending with an assortment of creepy crawlies including spiders, ants and snakes.
She managed to secure five stars from a potential 10, but numerous viewers expressed scepticism, suggesting the task appeared to be suspiciously straightforward compared to some others, reports the Express.

“Ridiculously easy task clearly designed for Ruby, a tad embarrassing,” one person wrote on X, the platform previously known as Twitter.
“It’s totally rigged, seems weird that she offers to do the trial and it’s quite easy,” another commented.
A third observer noted: “This trial is too easy for Ruby, so rigged.”
“Easiest trial ever,” declared another viewer. “Clearly fixed for her.”
Another user posted: “Ruby did well getting five stars. Still rigged that they made this trial easy for her.”
“Clearly they’ve told the camp this trial is easy hence why Ruby volunteered,” remarked one more viewer. “Trials used to be so elite,” they continued.
However, other fans defended the challenge, highlighting Ruby’s impressive jungle performance and noting that the trial had clearly been demanding for her.
One supporter argued on X: “To the people complaining that these trials are easy… can’t you see her hands literally shaking?!”
“Hate the comments about this being too easy for a trial,” voiced another viewer. “It’s clear it’s hard for Ruby and at least she’s trying. Some people have difficulties with fine motor skills.”
Another fan of I’m a Celebrity chimed in: “I respect Ruby so much, she’s 72 I think? And is doing good.”
I’m a Celebrity… Get me Out of Here! continues to air on ITV.
