Birmingham-born Alison Hammond leaves the I'm a Celebrity jungle
TV presenter Alison Hammond has been sent packing from the jungle after an encounter with a dentist’s chair ruined her chances of being crowned.
The Birmingham-born This Morning interviewer was in the bottom two after receiving the least votes from I’m A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here viewers.
As a result she was sent to the “dentalist” as part of a bushtucker trial to decide who out of her and model Kayla Collins should stay in camp.
The task challenged the two women to hold a variety of creepy crawlies in their mouth for no less than 20 seconds.
Grasshoppers, giant burrowing cockroaches and spiders were among the critters produced.
Hammond and Collins tied the task at 4-4, but both refused a tie-breaker mouthwash of pulped cockroaches.
It meant that the eviction reverted back to who received the least viewers’ votes.
After being given her marching orders, Hammond said: “That was fair, I’ve had a great time. I’m so happy but thanks for letting me come along.”
Meanwhile back in camp, contestant Gillian McKeith was attempting to make amends with Shaun Ryder after yesterday’s blowout.
The pair had argued over a Celebrity Chest Challenge which involved retrieving keys from a freezing pool of water.
