'I'm a Celebrity' camp on lockdown because of dangerous spiders

As if those jungle celebs aren't being put through enough with Bushtucker Trials and food rations, now they have to deal with killer spiders too.

The I'm a Celeb camp has been placed in lockdown only days after the famous folk have arrived due to eight funnel web spiders* that were trying to mooch their way into the camp.

Medic Bob told The Telegraph, "The funnel webs are the most dangerous spider in the world.

"There is an anti-venom and of course none of the celebs have ever been bitten by them - a couple of crew have been bitten in the past."

The spiders were discovered in a camera hide near the sleeping areas. Maybe they just wanted a selfie?

They also found a venomous brown snake near the camp too, with Bob saying; "Normally we don’t get these - we haven’t had one for 15 years. They prefer open paddocks.

"And ours is a rainforest. Well last week we found one in the top helipad. They are very vicious snakes."

Ah lads, would you be well? We'd be on the first plane out of there.

*We are not going to show you a picture of these spiders, because we're sound like that.
