I’m A Celebrity: Fans in stitches over Sam Thompson’s high energy behaviour in the jungle

What has Sam Thompson got up to on I’m A Celebrity?

I’m A Celebrity star Sam has seemingly enjoyed every single second in the jungle so far, judging by what we’ve seen so far.

The aptly nicknamed “Duracell Bunny” has been a shining, hyperactive light in camp so far – and fans have been quick to pick up on it.

In tonight’s show, Sam made a shocking confession – he doesn’t drink coffee. However, this seemed to be something of a relief for his campmates, who said that the “Duracell Bunny doesn’t need coffee”.

Sam – along with his campmates – took part in the Locker Shocker trial today – and seemed to be the only one genuinely excited about it.

When asked by Ant and Dec who was excited to take part, Sam replied with an enthusiastic “YES!”.

Later in the trial, he told Ant and Dec, “I’m doing this for you!” as he endured fish guts and slime to pick up some stars.
