I'm A Celeb fans slam 'ungrateful' AJ and Vernon for moaning about food

I'm A Celebrity was back this evening, putting Russell Watson through the ringer in the world's most disgusting general knowledge quiz.

The opera singer managed to rack up five stars out of a possible ten, meaning camp were forced to split the duck - which arrived in its usual hamper - between all of them.

And Vernon and AJ could be heard chatting quietly that they were disappointed with the amount of meat provided.

"It's not a lot of duck though, is it?" AJ said.

"No, not a lot," Vernon agreed.

"Two mouthfuls, if that?" AJ wondered, "It's the thought that counts though, isn't it?"

The dancer added in the Telegraph: "I can probably only have two or three mouthfuls of duck, which to tell my stomach that...I just feel like I can't tell him.

"I'm sorry!"

One angry fan wrote: "Ungrateful AJ moaning about duck..."

Another added: "Russell was so proud of what he'd then there's AJ,Shane and Vernon moaning there's not enough bloody duck."

Others jumped to their defence though, one viewer tweeting: "no one's being ungrateful they were just saying it was a small amount of duck calm yourselves."

They added: "all high and mighty like y'all wouldn't do the exact same thing, i see y'all."

Earlier in the show, Sir Mo Farah had expressed concern at the amount of food the camp would get to tuck into.

"The portion sizes tonight are going to be small," he said in the Telegraph, "Normally we've been hitting high, the 7s, 8s, 9s, 10s, but tonight the trial was tough. As he said. I would have struggled."

Russell volunteered for the trial, telling his new pals that he was "100%" up for it.

"I've been desperate to get out and prove myself and just to give something back to the camp," he remarked.

"It's really important tonight to get some stars in for food as we're all starving and I feel like it's time for me to contribute something."

And tonight's show saw Victoria Derbyshire and Beverley Callard become the latest celebs to leave camp in a double eviction.

*I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! airs at 9pm on ITV.
