I'm A Celeb fans work out why Babatunde is exempt from certain trials
He's been exempt from a number of trials
From Day One it was clear to see funny-man Babatunde Aleshe was going to be comedy gold on this year's series of I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here.
After shouting the words: "I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here" during the first trial alongside Jill Scott and Charlene White, before even stepping foot in the jungle, it was predicted that the comedian could be this year's 'scaredy-cat'.
It had looked like Baba was going to be saved by the arrival of Matt Hancock, with bookies predicting the former health secretary could break the record for completing the most trials, but he was voted alongside Chris Moyles and Boy George to take part in Angel of Terror during Tuesday night's episode.
After his pretty disastrous performance in the trial, which led to the boys only gaining 3 out of 11 stars, fans took to Twitter to express they'd like to see Baba take part in more trials.
HOWEVER, as hosts Ant and Dec revealed Wednesday night's trial, they were quick to reveal that Baba was exempt from Boiling Point, which features water.
Why is Babatunde exempt from trials on I'm A Celeb?
Although the real reason hasn't been confirmed, I'm A Celeb fans think they've worked out the reason behind Baba's exemptions.
As the trials he's been exempt from so far have all contained water, many have come to the conclusion the comedian can't swim.
One fan wrote: 'Why are they exempt? I’m assuming Baba can’t swim maybe as it’s in water #ImACeleb', with another adding: 'Baba lucky that he can't swim. Otherwise he would been straight in the next one#ImACelebrity'. (sic)
A third added: ''I'm assuming Babatunde can't swim. He's been exempt from both involving water.' (sic)
A fourth then wrote: 'I bet Babatunde was exempt from this trial because he can’t swim loool cos that would be me too #ImACeleb'. (sic)
With Baba exempt, viewers voted for Chris Moyles to take part in Wednesday (16th November) night's trial, which is called Boiling Point.
