ITV I'm A Celebrity sparks 'race row' as viewers vote Scarlette and Charlene off first

The voting has begun but I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here viewers are not happy with the choices of those evicted from the jungle so far with some saying it has sparked a '"race row". The first celebs to pack up their rucksacks and leave were Scarlette Douglas and Charlene White.

Viewers slammed the result, pointing out that it was two black women first to leave the show. Babatunde Aleshe also found himself in the bottom two.

Scarlette's emotional exit was followed with her confirmation to Ant and Dec that she was devastated to be leaving the show. After she cried and hugged all her campmates, she described to the hosts her plan of learning all the jobs in camp in case she made it to the final three.
