ITV I'm A Celebrity fans ask where campmate is as they 'go missing' just 24 hours into series - and it's not Olivia Attwood

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here viewers were flocking to social media as they spotted one of the campmates go 'missing' during the second episode of the series. The hit ITV reality show returned on Sunday night (November 6) with ten new famous faces swapping their comfortable lives for jungle living.

On Monday night (November 7), fans of the Ant and Dec-fronted programme watched as the celebs - including rugby star Mike Tindall, Loose Women's Charlene White, and Hollyoaks actor Owen Warner - endure their first night of discomfort in the jungle, which featured unexpected snakes and campmates snoring.

Meanwhile, away from the main camp, property expert Scarlette Douglas, singer Boy George, radio DJ Chris Moyles and Love Island's Oliva Attwood had to rough it on an island for their first night as Jungle VIPs - which stood for 'Very Isolated People'. They then had to take part in the first challenge to win an evening meal for camp.

But the action was filmed before Olivia had to leave. ITV said the 31-year-old former reality show contestant has been told by the programme's medical team it is not safe for her to return to camp, meaning she is the first contestant to leave the show this year.

Announcing Olivia's departure earlier on Monday, a spokesman for ITV said: "As a precautionary measure Olivia needed to leave the jungle to undergo some medical checks. Unfortunately, the medical team has advised it is not safe for Olivia to return to camp as there needs to be a further investigation. She has been absolutely brilliant and she’ll be very much missed on the show."

However, viewers still saw Olivia taking part in the first Bushtucker challenge which saw her inserting her hand into small wall openings alongside Scarlette filled with worms in a bid to unscrew pipe fittings and stop the flow of water into chambers holding Boy George and Chris. They were placed into the "torpedo tubes" and made to collect stars dropped into the containers.

Later on, Ant and Dec revealed Aleshe has been selected by the public to face the next Bushtucker Trial – titled Horrifying Heights – which will be broadcast on Tuesday night (November 8) – after being chosen over Owen Warner.

But despite plenty going on in the camp, I'm A Celeb fans questioned the whereabouts of Coronation Street legend Sue Cleaver. The actress, who plays Eileen Grimshaw on the ITV soap, was seen trying to comfort Charlene following an emotional first night for the broadcaster but wasn't really seen after that.

And it's fair to say fans want to see more. @fansvfavourites tweeted: "Where the hell have they hidden ar sue? #imaceleb." @BlingyBookworm commented: "What, there’s someone called Sue in there… where?? #ImACeleb." @GalarTrainerJ wrote: "Is Sue ok? Seems to be in the background and not mingling much #ImACeleb."

@luvfionaapple posted: "Has sue left with liv because she is no where to be found #imaceleb." @NathanLomaxFay shared: "More Sue Cleaver, please. #ImACeleb." @kamsveto echoed: "I want more Sue airtime tomorrow and less of that Owen airtime please and thank you. #ImACeleb." @coops_soph added: "I didn't even realise Sue from corrie was in the jungle she hasn't said much today I hope they give her more airtime #ImACeleb."
