Let's be honest: there's only one reason we tune in to I'm a Celebrity . . . Get Me Out of Here, and that's to see our favourite celebrities take part in Bushtucker Trials, all in the name of entertainment for us viewers at home. Although this year's show is going to look slightly different as Ant and Dec swap the Australian outback for, err, a castle in Wales [1], you can bet we will be watching this year as 12 new contestants undertake gruelling trials and fun-filled challenges to win food and treats in the lead up to one of them being crowned — for the first time ever — King or Queen of the Castle.
So, ahead of the show returning this weekend for its 20th run, we've rounded up the very best Bushtucker Trials over the years. Featuring soap stars, athletes, and even reality TV royalty (we're still not over Caitlyn Jenner appearing in 2019), here are 12 of the most memorable Bushtucker Trials to date. Enjoy!
John Barrowman Chomps Through His Bushtucker Bonanza
Not only does John Barrowman have to eat a goat's eyes, a dead spider, and a bull's anus to earn the finalists their dinner, but his dream foods are wafted in his face, just for fun in this cruel, cruel trial.

Who could forget this moment from 2014 when Fatima Whitbread got a cockroach stuck up her nostril after a Fill Your Face Trial? So gross, but oh so very satisfying to watch.

We get the feeling Helen Flanagan didn't really know what she was signing up for when she agreed to appear on the show in 2015.
Georgia Toffolo Down Crocodile Anus Smoothie
As far as Bushtucker Trials go, the eating trials have to be the worst. In this clip, Georgia 'Toff' Toffolo shows exactly why she was voted Queen of the Jungle in 2017 as she drinks her way through Keith's cocktail menu.
Gemma Collins' Doesn't Make It Past Helicopter Hell
As fans of the show will know, the inaugural skydive into the jungle gives contestants their first real glimpse into camp life. However, it was all a bit too much for this TOWIE star who packed her bags and withdrew from the competition only three days in.
Larry Lamb Rescues Scarlett Moffatt From Sinking
It's not all crying, vomiting, and pigs anuses on I'm a Celebrity . . . Get Me Out of Here. Sometimes trials can bring out the best in people, as this adorable clip in which Larry Lamb saves the day after Scarlett Moffats falls into the river shows.
Adam Thomas Faces His Fear of Spiders
Who knew watching a grown man freak out over spiders could be so hilarious?

Who could forget Gillian McKeith's dramatic fainting from series 10? In this trial, her fourth in a row, it all became too much for the celebrity nutritionist and she had to be carried out by medic Bob.
Katie Price and Kim Woodburn Face the Vile Vending Machine
It's been 10 years but we're still brought to tears with laughter whenever we watch this trial from 2009.

Lady Colin Campbell wowed viewers in 2015 when she breezed through this eating trial alongside Jorgie Porter.
Things Get Messy For Caitlyn Jenner and Roman Kemp in Slop of the Pops
It was avalanche after avalanche of gruesome guts, rotten fruit, rotten eggs, and offal for Caitlyn Jenner and Roman Kemp in this Bushtucker Trial. We can almost smell how awful it is through the screen.
Gino D'Acampo Faces the Bushtucker Bonanza
Try not to gag as Gino D'Acampo makes his way through cockroaches, fermented eggs, and mealworms in his final trial before being crowned King of the Jungle.
