I'm A Celeb fans fuming after Cliff Parisi ruled out of trial for third time

I'm A Celebrity fans are seething over the announcement that Cliff Parisi is once again excluded from Bushtucker Trial on medical grounds.

He's sat out nominations for two previous trials, again based on medical grounds, but after presenting duo Ant & Dec tonight told the celebs that he would be ruled out a third time, fans drew the line.

Some took to Twitter to rage about the soap star and pose the question of why he's there in the first place.

One demanded: "Someone wanna tell me why Cliff is in the jungle if he's always being ruled out smh #ImACeleb."

Another ranted: "Why is Cliff even in the show if he can't do any trials?

"I hate when campmates are excluded from trials on 'medical grounds', if someone isn't well enough to do a trial then they shouldn't be allowed on the show. Simple as that. #ImACeleb #imacelebrity."

"Why is Cliff in there if he can't do any challenges?!" another fumed, "Every minute ruled out for medical reasons #ImACeleb."

A third thought: "It'll be the real reckoning when Cliff can't be excused on medical grounds #imaceleb."

Others saw the lighter side, with one joking: "Cliff reminds me of that guy in PE who would always have some illness so couldn't take part lol #imaceleb."

Some took to social media to express support for their favourite celeb.

"Leave Cliff alone!" one begged, "He's doing his best!! I feel so bad he's such a sweetheart #imaceleb."

Even Ant & Dec got in on the ribbing, Ant laughing "Of course he is!" when Dec revealed Cliff was ruled out.

Tomorrow's Bushtucker Trial, The Reckoning, will see a group of four fight for those oh so precious stars.

Roman Kemp, Jacqueline Jossa, Ian Wright and Nadine Coyle will be the fist foursome to take on the gruelling challenge - and will be followed the other groups at another time.

Tonight's show saw Ian and comedian Andrew Maxwell clash yet again - the fourth time in the less than two weeks since they've been in the jungle.

Ian snapped at Andrew while cooking dinner after Andrew warned him that a rule break might not be the best idea.

Andrew expressed his concerns to former camp leader and England rugby legend James Haskell, claiming Ian wouldn't have treated anyone else the same way.

He said: "It's just so many more days to go. I'm trying to give him as much space as possible."

Andrew added: "In hindsight, I shouldn't have criticised him for the bean thing but the thing is, would he have flipped at you like that?"

Ian headed to the Bush Telegraph to vent about his co-star.

"I've had enough," he revealed, "It's the hypocrisy of it, that just wind me up."
