I’M A Celebrity fans tonight said they were being “trolled” as the stars hit the pub – but the rest of us can’t.

This evening viewers saw the campmates enjoying a night out at The Castle Inn.

The remaining eight celebrities were treated to a Christmas themed night, complete with beer, plus pie and chips.

Viewers watched on as the campmates enjoyed a tradional pub night out.

As we are currently in lockdown, with many parts of the country entering into Tier 3 tomorrow, seeing the celebrities at the pub disgruntled some fans.

Some accused the show of taunting them with The Castle Inn.

This one tweeted: “When they can go to the pub in #ImACeleb but you can’t because you’re in tier 3 (followed by a gif that said ‘Nobody likes a show off’.”

Another commented: “Never thought I’d be jealous of the celebs but they’re going to the pub.”

While this one said: “Gotta love how they’re showing the celebs going to a pub when we can’t even go to one that’s just well mean.”

Meanwhile earlier in the episode it was a different story as soap fans were in heaven when ‘Alfie Moon’ and ‘Liz McDonald’ teamed up behind the bar, to win the celebs the night at the tavern.

It all happened when EastEnders star Shane Richie and Corrie legend Beverley Callard took part in show’s pub challenge.

Their characters famously both played a landlord and landlady in their soaps – with Alfie in charge of the Queen Vic, and Liz behind the bar at the Rovers Return.

The challenge saw them having to put the 10 most common pub names in order in a bid to win the chance for the camp to go to The Castle Inn.

When they thought they had it in the right order, they had to pull a beer pump, which caused stale lager to be splashed at them if they got the answer wrong.

But fans were more interested in the fact they were seeing Alfie Moon and Liz McDonald behind the bar together – a soap crossover, which only fans could dream of.

Shane added to their delight when he joked: “Are you ready to pull a pint, Miss McDonald”.

To which Bev replied, “I believe I am Mr. Moon.”
 
Pretending to be in the Queen Vic, Shane joked: “Kat, get out love, I’m serving Liz.”

Fans went nuts at this soapy dream and took to Twitter to share their joy.

One tweeted: “This is too good! Alfie and Liz behind the bar together!”

Another said: “Could only have Alfie and Liz doing the pub challenge really.

While this one was loving the crossover: “Bev and Shane aka Liz and Alfie doing a castle coin challenge about pubs is pretty much perfect isn’t it?”

After they completed the task, Beverley said: “They are going to go mad when we tell them what we’ve won.”

Returning to camp, where AJ was teaching Vernon, Jordan and Giovanna to dance, Shane noted to the campmates that they hadn’t received a call from Kiosk Cledwyn and faked they had failed the challenge.

Eventually he and Beverley revealed they had won and that they were going to the pub.

Jordan said: “They had us hook, line and sinker. Look at me, I’m grinning like a Cheshire cat.”

Beverley revealed: “We’ve got drinks – and snacks!”
 
The camp of course screamed and celebrated the fact they would be going to the pub.
