Geordie stars Ant and Dec are being asked to quit I'm A Celebrity by animal rights charity PETA.
The popular hosts have presented the ITV programme for more than 20 years and a new series is set to air from Sunday, November 6. However, PETA has published an open letter urging the stars to step down from their roles.
In the letter, signed by PETA's vice president of programmes Elisa Allen, Ant and Dec are accused of being "complicit in cruelty to animals" as various challenges include snakes, insects and other animals. It adds that their hosting of the show sends a "message to viewers that you think animal abuse is not only acceptable but also entertaining".
