Bookies have placed odds

| Updated:

Sair Khan has revealed to be the bookies’ favourite to be voted off this year’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! first.

The Coronation Street actress entered the jungle on Sunday night alongside nine other famous faces.

But it seems Sair’s jungle journey could come to an end earlier than expected as bookies William Hill have placed her odds of being voted off the competition first at 11/4, despite being the original favourite to win.

William Hill have also placed bets on which other campmates could face being eliminated from the jungle first.

Former EastEnders star Rita Simons is placed at 9/2 and Hollyoaks star Malique Thompson-Dwyer at 11/2.

Sair left viewers confused during Sunday night’s launch episode after she appeared to eat emu meat even though she claims to be a vegan.

Sair was part of the red team alongside fellow campmates Harry Redknapp, John Barrowman, Nick Knowles and Malique.

The team won the first challenge against the yellow team and were rewarded with setting up camp in Croc Creek while the other celebrities were forced to reside in Snake Rock and live on basic rations of rice and beans.

Sair and her campmates were also rewarded with being immune from the first two Bushtucker trials and  treated to emu meat for dinner.

As the emu meat was delivered to the camp, Sair told her campmates: “I think I’ve tried emu before.”

She and Nick then took control of cooking.

However, as the campates tucked into their meal, fans took to Twitter to speculate over whether Sair ate the meat too.

One person said: “Sair is supposedly vegan but she ate emu??? I’m so confused.”

Another tweeted: “I thought I read Sair was a vegan and she’s eating emu?”

But others were quick to defend Sair and point out that it was never confirmed if she ate the meat.

Meanwhile, The Inbetweeners actress Emily Atack is the new favourite to win the show.

Emily amused viewers when she was thrown straight into a terrifying challenge which saw her jump out of a helicopter.

Emily also got people talking when she shrieked as a leech feasted on her leg as she and her fellow campmates arrived in Snake Rock.

William Hill spokesman Rupert Adams said: “Emily is already one of the biggest names in the history of I’m A Celebrity and she is going to get a load of airtime.”

Other leading contenders in the betting are John at 11/2, The Chase’s Anne Hegerty at 7/1 and The Vamps singer James McVey also at 7/1.
