THE  new series of I’m a Celebrity kicked off on Sunday night and the contestants are getting on well.

Too well, according to some viewers.

It seems fans are not happy that the current jungle dwellers are all "a bit too nice," and some are calling for the return of Bushtucker legend Lady Colin Campbell.

In the first episode the celebrities put on a good show, being friendly, co-operative and having a laugh. 

One fan took to Facebook to say: "Really enjoyed the first night, and they seemed not a bad crowd. No-one to dislike at this stage."

Celebrities with certain traits tend to go into the jungle every year (glamour girl, the lad, the boy-band casualty etc) and fans of the show noticed that the most interesting celebrity character is missing – the "posh and crazy" one.

I’m a Celebrity social media users took to a fan-made Facebook group to discuss the opening show and a theme emerged.

 

One fan said: “We’re missing an eccentric posh person this year.”

Many people agreed, with one replying, another replied: “I said earlier there’s no weirdo this year.”

While another piped up: “Yet…” in response.

There’s a long history of eccentric celebrities losing it in the jungle, with last year's contestant Lady C being the most controversial example.

The socialite divided everyone with her withering put-downs and epic one liners before she dramatically quit the show.

When she was asked to help wash up in one episode, she got out of the chore by ranting: “I have five tiaras and have turned down one of the richest men on earth.”

However not everyone thought the absence of a Lady C type character was a bad thing.

One Facebook member said: “I think we had a belly-full to last a couple of seasons with last year’s posh person!”

Many fans of the show still believe that producers will still put in one this year. One fan said: "Got to be more going in I reckon”, while another added: "Bet more go in" and made the suggestion that it could be Danny Baker.

The general feeling on the Facebook group is that there is still time for someone posh and crazy to stir up the drama in the jungle.
