I’m A Celebrity doctors were called into action after Coleen Rooney had a creature stuck in her ear during Wednesday’s episode, following a Bushtucker trial.
The WAG, 38, was joined by Danny Jones, Richard Coles and GK Barry, as they took part in the ‘Arcade of Agony’, where they had to operate a gripping machine filled with balls.
Each ball they grabbed contained a number of tickets that they could deposit in the ticket collection box.
To operate the machine they needed a coin that they had to retrieve from a box of fish guts.
For this challenge, they had only ten minutes to try to win as many tickets as possible.
The two celebrities with the most tickets at the end of the Test would advance to the final round and be one step closer to winning the ticket to Cyclone.
I’m A Celebrity doctors were called into action after Coleen Rooney had a creature stuck in her ear during Wednesday’s episode, following a Bushtucker trial.
WAG, 38, was joined by Danny Jones, Richard Coles (pictured) and GK Barry, as they took part in the ‘Arcade of Agony’, where they had to operate a grappling machine filled with balls.
As part of the Bushtucker trial, celebrities had to navigate boxes full of bugs, with each ball containing a star for the camp, which was equivalent to a meal for the camp.
When the horn sounded, Coleen got off to a good start and became the first celebrity to retrieve a coin and play the catch machine, getting a ball and a handful of tickets.
Danny quickly followed suit, grabbing a star on his first ball and securing a meal for camp.
However, Coleen’s competitive spirit caused a minor mishap as she was moving so fast that she accidentally dropped some of the tickets she had won into the coin slot instead of the ticket collection box.
Meanwhile, GK, who was covered in bugs, was struggling to gain balls from the grabber while saying, ‘Oh my God, they’re in my pants!’
Hoping to reinforce the point of the trial, Ant and Dec began chanting: “Coins, balls, notes and stars!”
Coleen was next to find a star on one of the balls, while Ant coached Richard: “Your technique isn’t very good, you really have to be above the ball to catch it.”
When time was up, he came out of his cabin in shock and shouted, ‘I’ve got one in my ear!’

Medics were called in to take a closer look and safely removed it with a syringe, as the creature emerged from his ear.

The watching ant said: ‘My God! He just jumped!’
Asked how he found the trial, GK replied: “I’d like to never do that again.”
When Coleen and Danny earned a star for camp, it meant they had two out of four possible meals for camp.
As they walked back to camp, Ant said to Dec: ‘I’m not so sure Richard understood that!’
