I’m A Celebrity viewers praise “bravest in the jungle” contestant after fearsome trial

Scaling new heights

She’s five foot four, weighs hardly anything and is absolutely tough as nails – that’s Georgia ‘Toff’ Toffolo!

The jungle favourite had viewers rushing to praise her resilience after she performed heroically in tonight’s Bush Tucker Trial.

She was taking part in the challenge titled “The Snakes are High” – after Amir had wisely ruled himself out.

And the current camp PM soon found herself suspended high above the jungle canopy in a see-through box, with no company but more and more snakes.

She had to get through nine minutes as a total of 20 slithery companions were released alongside her one by one, which made her scream in terror.

Dec warned the star: “They don’t like sudden movements,” and as a python moved closer to her face, Toff couldn’t help but unleash a volley of four-letter-words, which Ant quipped wouldn’t do her much good saying: “And they don’t like bad language.”

As more of the scaly creatures slid in, Toff showed her tough side, saying: “Oh god, this is awful, this is hell but I’m so bloody hungry I’m not going anywhere” she insisted, adding: “I’m getting that full house, I’m not moving.”

Fans were amazed at her toughness, with one writing: “Toff has got more balls than all of those lads!”

Another said: “How can you not love Toff?” And a third wrote: “Toff is a tough lil’ cookie.”

And it turned out Toff’s trial was well worth the terror, as she ended up with a full nine stars, which meant everyone in the camp could look forward to a proper meal.

Earlier in the day, recently evicted Shappi warned that Toff may not be all she seems, and could be putting on her ditzy demeanour. She said: “Don’t believe the… it takes a lot of brains to look that dizzy. She’s a bit of a Marilyn Monroe. Plays the dizzy but…”

Regardless of how much of her genuine personality is on display, there’s no doubt Toff is smashing all the challenges that I’m A Celebrity can throw at her!
