Fans of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! were left gutted during last night's episode (2nd Dec) as Hollyoaks actor Malique Thompson-Dwyer became the second campmate to leave the I'm A Celebrity jungle. The 20-year-old, who seemed very emotional during his exit interview with Dec Donnelly and Holly Willoughby, received the fewest votes from viewers to stay in the show.
However, at the beginning of the show, Dec and Holly advised viewers that John Barrowman MBE would be excluded from the vote as he'd been injured and removed from camp - continually telling viewers that they'd explain what happened to him later in the show.
In the last section of the show, we were finally shown what had happened - John had been walking to wash a pot with Harry Redknapp when he'd tripped on the path and fallen to the ground, screaming in agony.
Harry called the other campmates for help, and as Nick Knowles and Malique supported John out of the camp, Inbetweeners actress Emily Atack told the Bush Telegraph that she was absolutely "gutted" over what had happened and what it might mean for the future of the show.
Emily, who has grown incredibly close to John during their time in the jungle, said, "It was all just going how it normally is, next thing you know John is screaming down the path and Harry is shouting for us to help. We don't now what's happened. He’s hurt his ankle and been taken out of camp. I'm absolutely gutted."
