contestants revolt over lack of cream teas
There was a stand-off between contestants and show producers on I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here this week after the remaining 5 celebs felt hard done by when they received just 3 cream teas after Kim Woodburn and Jimmy White completed the celebrity chest question to win the treat.
Outspoken Kim was one of the first to object to the mean spirited treat and suggested the campers all stand together against show organisers in order to get what she felt, they rightfully deserved for completing the celebrity chest. Kim said: ”We’re throwing our mics down, all of us. I’ll tell you why I’m damned angry, I play the game here, I do as I’m told, I don’t break rules.”
Chef Gino was also incensed by the lack of scones and marched to the bush telegraph to issue producers with a warning: “I will give you 10 minutes to get 5 scones and 5 teas down here.”
Another gripe the final five had with their prize was that their cream tea was not served with tea. Instead they were presented with three scones with cream and jam. Kim lead the lively protest declaring, ”Three scones is not a cream tea,” before adding, “We’re putting our mics down and we’re not putting them on again until we get what we want. You are making monkeys out of us and I will not allow you to do this.”
The show’s producers were forced to give in to the celebrities demands in order to keep the peace, and another two scones with quickly delivered.
Following their calorific treat, the contestants were presented with another gift. Scales. All of the finalists weighed themselves and found they’d each lost over a stone in weight. No need to feel guilty about the cream tea then!
