The challenge walking the plank was one of the best things ever on celeb. SHould be more challenges like that instead of bugs and cockroaches,
Who collects all these bugs anyway !

Quite .
Bugs are so yesterday and eating them along with various parts of kangaroo anatomy, is just a pathetic and unimaginative way to set tasks.
Some of the Crystal Maze types of task , modified for the location would be more watchable, and could be more fun for all concerned.

The Aussie version (the camp is in South Africa) had some great trials, one memorable one was involving tightropes over a dam.

I can't watch most of it due to a certain bug its pointless and overdone! Whatever happened to the high wire or underwater challenges...something different.

I agree. Just putting thousands more bugs and more rats doesn't make it better. The walk the plank trial was good. Bugs and eating gross stuff has been done to death and I can't watch that anyway because it makes me feel sick but a bit more thought into some interesting new trials would be good. I love the show but trials need a bit more inventiveness

I agree, some different challenges and less of the bugs. I also thought walking the plank was brilliant, it made me feel dizzy just watching.

I always feel so worried for the rats & snakes in the trials, they are sometimes trampled or squished.
I know I should feel sorry for the bugs too, but that's not happening!

I much prefer the more physical trials, but I think they use bugs because those trials are cheaper to set up.

I find it hard to believe that in this day and age we are still finding (or are expected to find) something like someone eating a live insect entertaining. I stopped watching for that reason, not because I am squeamish but because it's so last century and actually quite cruel when you think about it

I agree with all of the above. I think it's bizarre to imagine that people enjoy watching people with creatures crawling all over them, and worse - eating them.

Why on earth are we served with this instead of the fun tasks like the water slide?
