ITV has been hit with a barrage of Ofcom complaints following I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here's return.<\/p>\n
Fans were left raging over Nigel Farage's participation and a cheeky joke about Sunderland from hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
So far, the presenters have made some digs about right-wing politics, which hasn't gone down well with viewers either.<\/p>\n
Despite being only three episodes in, 103 fans have vented their frustration to the broadcasting regulator.<\/p>\n
Newcastle-natives Ant and Dec took a stance in the Tyne\u2013Wear derby football rivalry, comparing the "barren, hostile" outback to Sunderland, just seconds into the series premiere.<\/p>\n
They've also mocked the viewership of conservative news channel GB News, on which Nigel has his own programme, regularly giving shoutouts to "Keith and Linda".<\/p>\n
It's not the first time this week that I'm A Celeb fans have protested to Ofcom – especially after seeing Nigels' bum.<\/p>\n Some fans slammed the "disgusting, traumatising moment" after it aired.<\/p>\n The ex-politician was caught on camera with his\u00a0bare bottom on full display\u00a0as he went for a wash.<\/p>\n Nigel was spotted by his startled campmate Josie Gibson\u00a0who gasped: "Frickin' hell!"<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n One viewer wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter: "NO! NO! NOOOOOO! Phoning Ofcom."<\/p>\n Another insisted: "Please ensure ITV have trigger warnings when I\u2019m witnessing Nigel in the shower thank you. I will be invoicing my therapy bill."<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Someone else shouted: "WHY DID I JUST SEE NIGEL FARAGES A**E CHEEKS? OFCOM WILL BE HEARING ABOUT THIS."<\/p>\n A viewer added: "i need to report Farage\u2019s bare ass on prime time tv to Ofcom. I could've lived the rest of my life without seeing that."<\/p>\n Another said: "OFCOM will be hearing from me after that shower scene!!!!"<\/p>\n<\/picture>LIGHTS OUT <\/span><\/p>\n
