I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! 2018 is really starting to heat up as a new celebrity is eliminated every night this week. Last to go was The Vamps guitarist James McVey, leaving just four campmates, all vying to be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle. Performer John Barrowman is still in with a chance of winning as the stars get ready for the semi finals tonight.
John has been a source of entertainment for his campmates, spontaneously breaking into song to raise morale.
The Torchwood and Doctor Who star has also proved his worth in the Bushtucker Trials, managing to claim all tars for his team during a tricky underwater challenge.
John took part in the Scary Rose, having to dive under the water to find stars among a shipwreck.
He was joined in the water by eels, snakes and even a crocodile.
