Overview
- Monday's episode featured the first Bushtucker eating trial at The Divey, where Ruby Wax and Angry Ginge completed every course to secure 10 stars for camp.
- Audience reaction was sharply split, with many viewers calling the challenge one of the most stomach-churning they have seen while others praised the pair’s chemistry.
- Social media criticism of Ruby Wax’s earlier comments toward Angry Ginge continued, even as supporters defended her sarcasm and celebrated the duo’s on-screen dynamic.
- Animal-rights group PETA urged ITV to take the series off air over the use of animals in challenges, and the broadcaster responded that it follows all laws and uses qualified handlers.
- The launch drew an average overnight audience of 6.6 million and a 7.3 million peak, which ITV said was its highest overnight audience of 2025.
