I’m A Celeb viewers slam ‘irritating’ campmate within moments of new series, ranting ‘I hope they get eaten by a snake!’
I'M A CELEBRITY fans slammed one 'irritating' campmate within moments of the new series kicking off, ranting 'tone it down!'
ITV1 viewers blasted Dean McCullough, 32, for being an "attention seeker" as they tuned into tonight's premiere after a year off the airwaves.
The BBC Radio 1 DJ divided opinion with his excitable energy and over-the-top reactions, which some viewers found grating.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, one wrote: "Already irritated by dean," while another added: "Dean McCullough already doing my head in."
Someone else agreed: "That Dean is an irritating ****. Hope he gets eaten by a snake."
A third chimed in with: "dean will be first boot, i sense it," with a fourth saying: "Dean tone it down a bit dorl."

One more concluded: "Dean’s going to be the attention seeker of the series it seems."
During the opening scenes, Dean struggled to chug down a blend of fish eye, bull's penis and vomit fruit garnish.
He warned: "This is playing havoc with my IBS," sending hosts Ant and Dec into hysterics.
In an interview before heading into the jungle, Dean hinted at a future feud as he issued a brutal warning to his co-stars.
Speaking to the MailOnline, the presenter insisted he's a "glass half full kind of guy" who won't be impressed with campmates "putting their feet up".
He said: "There could be a few people on that line up who think, 'I'm just going to sit this one out, I'm not going to do the washing up'. But yes they are."
His honest comments are a stark contrast to TikTok star GK Barry's attitude towards camp life - which could cause tension between the pair.
She confessed she's looking forward to "a relaxing couple of weeks in a hammock".
GK also admitted: "I won't bring much to the camp, or clean much."
Jungle life gets off to a rough start for Dean after spoiler snaps showed him teaming up with Coleen Rooney as they made their way into camp.
Coleen is left panicked as she and Dean encounter a problem when their canoe capsizes and dunks them into the river.
It's not just Coleen feeling fearful ahead of their arrival into the camp with McFly's Danny Jones and N-Dubz and The X Factor star Tulisa among the celebs who will be forced to down a vile blended cocktail within seconds of meeting one another.
Along with Dean, dancer Oti Mabuse and The Sun's Jane Moore, the duo can be seen chugging on a horrific concoction of bull’s penis and fish eye, with a vomit fruit garnish to top it off.
