Dean evicted from celebrity jungle -Nov 30 2006
Dean Gaffney has been booted off I’m A Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here! - and the jungle camp is set to lose another celebrity contestant.
The first stage of the double eviction saw Gaffney, who came to fame as Robbie in EastEnders, lose out to David Gest and Jason Donovan in the public vote.
It may have been Gest’s performance as the pair collected the celebrity chest that swung the vote.
Gaffney, who was a late entrant to the ITV show, panicked as he and Gest confronted pecking emus to collect emu eggs.
But while Gaffney looked terrified, Gest told the birds: "Yeah, you want talk? You want to dance? You wanna boogie?"
Still, Gaffney did not go home empty-handed, after the celebrities held this year’s Jungle Awards ceremony.
Gest explained Gaffney’s award as owing to the fact that "after one drink he is like ’Where am I?’"
He added: "So the Where Am I Award goes to Dean Gaffney.
"He was on Coronation Street for 10 years and made a great impact with his performance as Bobbie Ewing."
But Gaffney could not let Gest’s comments go unchallenged, saying: "It was not Coronation Street. I was in EastEnders."
