This Morning backlash as Alison Hammond takes on Bushtucker Trial 15 years after jungle debut
Alison has had experience of Bushtucker TrialsThis Morning hosts Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary took on their own I’m A Celebrity… Bushtucker Trial today (November 14).
As everyone gets ready for I’m A Celebrity… to kick off this weekend, and the celebs take on their first tasks, This Morning decided to put their hosts through their very own Bushtucker Trial.
Alison Hammond has taken on real trials in the past during her 2010 stint on I’m a Celebrity…, so This Morning viewers were pretty confused about her reaction to the challenge today…
Alison Hammond on I’m A Celebrity
Back in 2010, Alison Hammond appeared on I’m A Celebrity….
While she was in the jungle, she took on her on Bushtucker Trials, most famously the ‘Dentist’ trial in which she had to put live insects in her mouth.
Despite bringing some entertainment to the show, Alison became the fourth celebrity to leave. And, because she entered the camp as a late arrival on Day 6, she actually only spent a total of nine days in the jungle.
She was asked during the show today if she would ever go back but remained adamant that she wouldn’t, saying: “No way!”
And, after her performance on today’s show, we can see exactly why she’s made that decision…
This Morning hosts take on Bushtucker Trial
On This Morning today, showbiz star Sian Welby was giving the hosts an update on what we can all expect from this year’s show, including all the changes.
But she had a surprise for them too, as there was a customised Bushtucker Trial set up in the studio for both hosts to take part in. However, Alison wasn’t too happy about it.
Standing at podiums, there were multiple glass boxes filled with insects. All Alison and Dermot had to do, was put their hand in and guess what was there. However, Alison was unable to do so without screaming… A lot! She told Dermot and Sian that she “couldn’t do it” repeatedly.
Dermot stepped up to help her out, but even when she got her hand in the box, she began screaming at the water – before she had even touched a critter!
Viewers weren’t impressed
Taking to X during the segment to express their annoyance at the show.
One wrote: “All put on. So fake. Absolutely embarrassing TV.”
“Good lord, this is awful” a second penned. While another added: “This is horrendous. I hope what is in the tank bites her.”
Other fans were more annoyed with how loud Alison’s screaming was, meanwhile.
One wrote: “That was horrendous” and another penned: “Give me strength, what a noise.”
Another added: “Thank God she isn’t back in the jungle.”
We guess we won’t be seeing Alison on an All Stars line-up anytime soon, then!
