I’m A Celeb fans want Corrie’s Andrew Whyment to win after hilarious debut

I'M A Celebrity viewers have already crowned Andrew Whyment as their winner.

The Coronation Street star - who plays Kirk Sutherland in the ITV soap - had fans in hysterics as he threw himself into the first task after becoming an outlaw in the jungle.

After digging through fish guts and entrails to find some trial stars he gave way to fellow newbie Cliff Parisi and took great delight in watching him suffer.

Viewers howled with laughter as Andrew egged his suffering on and said: "I love this show!"

The two were successful in winning the meals for the main camp and the main group graciously decided to share the spoils with the two soap stars.

They were locked up in the Outlaw jailhouse and soon joined by Andrew Maxwell and Kate Garraway but it was Andrew's endearing personality that won over viewers.
