Doomsville look like they’re having a great time
“It’s very quiet around here,” Jack said of the new camp layout.

“It’s really nice just to have a quiet camp, and nice to just be mellow with everyone.

“And actually, I think Ginge really needed this because he’s been getting pretty burnt out on drama camp.”

The camp was split into two, with the winners of a recent trial made up ‘Win City’, while the losers were sent to the grim ‘Doomsville’.

Fans think Jack’s comments about content creator Angry Ginge could hint at a secret feud between the celeb groups.

One wrote on X, “Drama camp, wtf does that mean Jack.”

While a second wrote, “#imaceleb ‘drama camp’???? what does that mean jack?”

“Jack would be finished by now,” penned a third.

Doomsville appear to be having more fun than Win City over the last few days, with morale looking high.

It comes after viewers picked up on a frustrating habit that Jack seems to be displaying while in the jungle.

Fans of the show have flocked to social media to share their thoughts about Jack apparently “mansplaining” things to his fellow campmates.

Taking to X, one person slammed: “Jack trying not to mansplain everything in the jungle #ImACeleb,” alongside a meme of a man holding his breath.

Another viewer commented: “Jack is a master of mansplaining #imaceleb.”

Someone else fumed: “Trying to like Jack but he’s so controlling and a proper know it all, he would p**s me right off #ImACeleb.”

Yet another expressed: “#ImACeleb Jack cannot resist putting his two pence in.”

Not everyone felt the same way as one fan gushed: “Feel like Jack is starting to settle into camp well. Good to see #ImACeleb.”

In a previous episode, Jack ended up in tears while discussing his dad Ozzy’s death with Emmerdale star Lisa Riley.

He said: “It was definitely a shock, I mean we knew he was sick for a while but it was definitely a shock, I mean we didn’t know it would be that quick…”

He added: “It was the ultimate mic drop, he did a massive big gig and was like, alright I’m done.”

Jack’s comments didn’t go down well

Win City have a more luxurious camp now

‘Give him his letter… he needs it more than anyone’: I’m A Celeb fans threaten to ‘riot’ over ‘cruel’ move as Jack Osbourne is left the ONLY campmate without a message from home… and demand bosses step in after emotional scenes leave viewers heartbroken…

VIEWERS of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here are threatening to “riot” after watching a “cruel” move during last night’s show.

The episode saw the campmates get their letters from family and friends after two weeks away from home.

However, the celebrities had to undergo a trial to win letters for each other.

They managed to win ten out of eleven letters in trial, leaving Jack Osbourne as the only star not to have one.

Later, the celebrities had an emotional evening reading out the messages from family and friends, leaving Jack holding back his sadness.

Now, fans have taken to X to demand that producers “step in” to give Jack his letter – branding the move “cruel”.

One viewer tweeted: “Jack being the only one not to get a letter was so damn cruel”.

Another shared their concern for Jack, who lost his dad, Ozzy Osbourne, earlier this year and has been emotional since arriving to camp.

“Please give Jack his letter, he needs it more than anyone,” they wrote.

Another said: “Jack deserves his letter more than anyone in there, come on producers, sort it out!!”

Some are even threatening to riot and boycott the show over the loss: “Give Jack his letter don’t be cruel. If not we riot!”

Jack’s campmate, Martin Kemp, appeared to agree with viewers as he said in the Bush Telegraph that the TV star “needed a letter” more than anyone.

Since entering camp, Jack has been open about his battle with grief since Black Sabbath legend Ozzy’s death.

During a discussion with Eddie Kadi, the Cooking With The Stars contestant was asked what he missed most about Ozzy.

As he attempted to answer the question, Jack became overcome with emotion and tried to compose himself.

Eddie then got Jack up and took him away from the other campmates as they continued their conversation in the jungle.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to bring it out like that,” Eddie expressed as Jack said: “No it’s fine.”

“I haven’t experienced what you’ve experienced,” he told the grief-stricken star before asking him: “What do you miss most about your pops?”

Again, Jack was unable to answer the question as he held his face into his hands and sobbed.

He finally expressed: “Just his energy. He had this force, so hard to describe. But he had this energy.

“It was like he swallowed the galaxy and didn’t know what to do with it. It’s the only way to ever describe it.”

Towie’s fakery exposed: Every move directed. Micromanaged extras. And you’ll NEVER believe truth behind those ‘Essex’ scenes… MOLLY CLAYTON reveals on-set secrets they’re desperate to hide – suong

When loyal viewers of long-running ITV show The Only Way Is Essex tune in to watch its Christmas special this year, they will see their favourite stars ‘bump into’ one another at their local festive market.

Given Towie’s reputation as a ‘reality’ TV show, they will surely expect that the cast members’ meetings onscreen are somewhat spontaneous.

Far from it. And I should know, because I was invited to the filming of the festive episode and used as an extra for the show, which will air on December 8.

I can tell you one thing for sure: there is no ‘reality’ whatsoever involved in the filming of Towie.

I spent a day on the set last month. Because no, contrary to the expectations of many viewers, the cast haven’t gathered anywhere near the now iconic town of Brentwood in Essex where most stars live – and where episodes used to be filmed – but instead at a specially designed film set at Lees Priory, a Tudor manor house just outside Chelmsford.

Usually a wedding venue that costs upwards of £15,000 to hire, the priory has been transformed into a festive fairground, despite the fact that it’s November.

Here, a fake Christmas market has been erected for the show within a matter of hours, complete with five wooden stalls decorated with tinsel, fairy lights and fake snow.

When I visit, they are serving up mini pancakes, hot chocolate, popcorn and toasted marshmallows. Except, unlike a real market, everything on offer is free, and the only customers are the Towie cast, crew and extras.

Meanwhile the stars, dressed to the nines in sparkling dresses, flawless make-up and with bouncy blow-dries, have spent hours getting professionally made-up for the occasion and have been chauffeured to the set from their homes, a stone’s throw from Brentwood High Street.

Roman Hackett and Matilda Draper… the stars have spent hours getting professionally made-up

It’s a far cry from the original premise of the show. So popular that it won a Bafta in 2011, Towie was created to follow the lives of a group of real-life twentysomethings living in Essex. It was dramatic, often messy – and wildly entertaining. So much so that the original cast, including Lauren Goodger, Amy Childs, Mark Wright and James Argent all became overnight sensations.

And despite criticism from many viewers that recent seasons have been staged to maximise drama, Towie is still one of the most-watched shows on ITV’s streaming service, with 66million views in the last 12 months.

But, I wonder as I watch the stars in action, can the show survive now that it’s entirely given up the pretence of being based in reality?

Diags, 34, real name James Bennewith, is the longest-serving cast member of the show and is the first to film a scene for the episode.

He strolls on to set with the ease of someone who has done this hundreds of times, arm-in-arm with his on-off girlfriend Jodie Wells. For the moment, at least, they seem very much back ‘on’.

Diags greets almost every crew member by name, cracking jokes with the director before positioning himself in front of the stalls. The scene they’re about to film includes couples Joe Blackman and Junaid Ahmed, and Roman Hackett with Love Islander Matilda Draper.

They hug, chat, catch up, all off camera, before being whisked away to be mic’d. Production staff give them directions: who’s meant to stand where, what topics to discuss and how long the scene should run.

Although there’s no precise script, their every move is directed.

Matilda and Roman wait just behind me, out of shot, until they get their cue.

‘Fancy seeing you here,’ I hear them saying to the group as they walk over, despite having been chatting to each other just moments prior.

The six of them continue the pretence, chatting enthusiastically about their Christmas plans – until the director yells ‘Stop!’

‘Matilda, can we go back and film that bit again? Go from the top,’ he says.

They film the scene again. And then once more for good luck.

This one conversation, which will make up no more than five minutes of the final hour-and-a-half episode, takes over an hour to film.

Meanwhile, other cast members are treated to rose wine and festive nibbles, while producers give them their many, many prompts.

Despite it being November, the set is plagued by swarms of bees. Every few minutes, a shriek pierces the air as yet another cast member flaps around in terror. Scenes are repeatedly interrupted and have to be started again.

‘Everyone look busy and keep chatting,’ one crew member orders.

I’m with my fellow extras – some regulars on the show – awaiting my orders. ‘Mingle! Be natural! Enjoy yourselves!’ one director shouts in our direction.

‘Stand there, turn your face slightly more towards the camera, and talk to the other extras. But don’t talk too loudly – and go big with the expressions and hand movements.’

I’m told to sit at a table close to the crew while sipping a hot chocolate and chatting with the other extras.

‘You girls sit here, face the camera slightly and chat to each other. Don’t speak too loudly, though, because we need to hear the cast and what they’re saying,’ another producer tells me.

After that scene is wrapped, I am asked to move into a different shot by the mini pancake stall.

‘Don’t walk too quickly,’ a producer instructs me. ‘You’ve just got here. You’re taking it all in.’ We film the shot several times until he’s happy.

Despite the rigorous instructions, I notice groups of cast members split off organically from one another, with best friends pairing up, exes carefully avoiding one another and frenemies circling with the knowledge that they may eventually be steered into the same shot. Camera operators weave between them, catching snippets of conversation and reactions.

Sammy Root and Elma Pazar, for example, whose relationship ended emotionally last season after meeting on Love Island: All Stars, stay at opposite sides of the courtyard. I overhear Sammy quietly telling a friend he’s started dating someone new – who is believed to be influencer Ella Burke.

Meanwhile, Dan Edgar and Ella Rae Wise, who broke up over the summer, also maintain a careful distance.

But drama still finds its way in.

Something said prompts Ella to start crying quietly in a corner, comforted by friends. It doesn’t take long before a producer notices. Boom!

‘Can we get a camera on her?’ a member of the production team shouts.

Within seconds, a cameraman rushes over to film a close-up, barely giving her space. It’s a reminder that vulnerability, even when spontaneous, is the better content.

After five hours of filming, the director finally calls wrap on the Christmas-market scenes. But the work isn’t done.

The cast are ushered together for a group promo photo. A photographer hesitates, trying to organise them.

‘I don’t know where to put half of you,’ he mutters. ‘So many of you hate each other.’

So, although Towie isn’t as authentic as it used to be – the drama certainly hasn’t been extinguished altogether.
