Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly returned to their jungle hosting duties for a fresh series as celebrities like Danny Jones, Coleen Rooney, and Alan Halsall began adapting to camp life.
As anticipation built up on Monday night with GK Barry embarking on the first solo Bushtucker Trial of the season, an abrupt cut to commercials disrupted the flow, and complaints about the ill-timed ads poured in, particularly when the excitement was ratcheting up. Taking to social media to complaint, one viewer jested: "Cue the adverts," and others echoed sentiments like: "Too many adverts, more ads than actual camp action," reports the Mirror .
