She’s being lined up to win’ moan I’m A Celeb fans as they accuse producers of ‘pushing’ camp mate after spotting ‘clue’
I’M A Celeb viewers have complained that TV bosses are “pushing” one of the channel’s stars to victory.
Many think This Morning host Josie Gibson, 38, has received huge quantities of airtime in a bid to get the ITV host to the final.
Last night, it came down to Hollyoaks actor Nick Pickard and TV presenter Josie in the bottom two, with the soap star becoming the fourth to be evicted from camp.
Viewers have since accused the network of “pushing” the star who anchors their flagship daytime show.
One fumed: “ITV pushing Josie in our faces, if she wins it’s definitely a fix.”
A second commented: “It was the Josie show tonight, I’m not a fan.”
“Sick of seeing Josie in the Bush Telegraph yapping, trying to get air time,” a third said.
Another added: “Every camera take is Josie – set up or what?”
But not all fans agreed and some were happy to see the star on screen, with one writing: “Josie is honestly my favourite person, I just love her so much.”
This person echoed: “I wanted to pop on here and say how much I’m LOVING I’m A Celeb this year! Tony, Marv, Danielle and Josie are my top 4 this series! Who are yours?!”
It comes after viewers were left enraged when they accused Josie of purposely ‘dodging’ the trials.
Tony Bellew, Nick Pickard and Marvin Humes were chosen to face the deadly Critter Mixer challenge.
When the group was deciding who should take on the latest challenge, the 38-year-old TV personality tried to duck out.
She explained: “Every single trial I have cried my eyes out, so even though I’d like it, just think of the tears and the pain I’d go through.”
The fans took issue and and so they took to X – formerly known as Twitter – in their droves as they vented their frustrations.
One I’m A Celebrity fan stated: “Josie got her excuses in early to sneak out of the trial #ImACelebrity.”
A second asked: “What trials has Josie actually done other than group ones ? She seems to dodge doing them , left , right & centre.”
“Is Josie going to do anything? At any point..? #ImACeleb,” pondered a third.
In the end the trio got six out of seven available stars, whilst Sam Thompson, Danielle Harold and Josie Gibson relaxed in the spring.
