Sam Thompson's savage one-word swipe at I'm A Celeb's GK Barry

Former I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! winner Sam Thompson has made a savage swipe at contestant GK Barry on the spin-off show last night.

Only a day into the new series hosted by Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly, fans are predicting an early exit for GK Barry after her tears and screams over a challenge. But it could get worse for her, as she now has to face the first solo trial.

She kept a brave face when Ant and Dec dropped the big news she would be facing the challenge, but as they left camp she was shown tearfully asking her new pals what she would be up against. Jane reassured her that she would be okay as GK, real name Grace, began crying with fear.

The first episode saw the 10 celebrities battle it out to become camp leaders, from jumping out of helicopters to fishing for keys in cockroach infested holes, with Corrie star Alan Halsall and singer Tulisa winning the title.

This year's spin off show is hosted by comedian Joel Dommett and last year's winner Sam Thompson. As with every year they share juicy gossip, behind-the-scenes clips and exclusive interviews. And last night Sam had a few harsh words for campmate GK Barry.

When asked by Joel how he thinks GK Barry will get on Sam Thompson replied with a savage one-word response: "Terribly", and he went on to explain: "it's better TV so lets hope she gets minimal stars."

Fans online have divided opinions on how GK Barry will perform on the show. One viewer took to X to write: "GK Barry won’t survive 48 hours the rate she’s going." Another agreed: "Either GK Barry Or Colleen will walk out week one trust me," as a third said: "GK Barry isn’t gonna last two days."

Others predicted she could turn it around though, with one writing: "One episode in and GK Barry is already my winner." Another said: "GK Barry is tooo funny," as a third added: "GK Barry is my favourite already! Hilarious."
