I'm A Celebrity boots out Georgia Toffolo and Andy Whyment in closely fought challenge

Georgia Toffolo and Andy Whyment have been booted out of I'm A Celebrity South Africa after a closely fought challenge.

On the ITV show tonight, the former Made In Chelsea star and the Coronation Street legend were sent home from the South African jungle after losing out in the Gold Rush challenge to their fellow campmates. The pair had taken on Jordan Banjo and Myleene Klass in the big challenge, which saw them being lowered into a pit where they had to dig for 'gold' nuggets.

They were then tasked with putting the gold nuggets on a scale and the first team to get the scales to tip the other way were able to return to camp and win their Pride a picnic, whilst the others had to go straight home.

It was the end of the road for Toff and Andy, with hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly saying they were gutted to see them leave.

When she entered the jungle this time around, Toff explained what an "honour" it was to return.

"Having the opportunity to do the jungle once is a great honour because not many people in the whole world have that privilege. And so, to be asked the second time is just next-level kind of stuff," she said.

"I personally was very happy in the Australian camp and I know some people found it hard but I wasn’t ready to leave. I am so excited to see what twists and turns there will be in South Africa. It’s going to be so unbelievably exciting."

She added: "I don't know what to expect but that is perfect. I am not one of those people that likes to think of a scenario in my head. I would far rather turn up, have a laugh, and see how it goes."

Ahead of his stint, Corrie legend Andy admitted he didn't think it would be any different - and wasn't worried about winning.

"I don’t think it is going to be too different. I was in it three years ago and so it is still quite a fresh memory for me. If someone did it 15 years ago, then that will feel alien to them!" he said, "I am going to do what I did last time and embrace the experience."
