After her hilarious performance in the eating challenge, it was no surprise that Lady Colin Campbell, aka Lady C, was voted to take on the next Bushtucker Trial is of the latest series of I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here.

However, after being selected by the public to take part in a challenge titled Panic Pit, she refused to after seeing what it involved.

Taking place in a hole in the ground, the challenge required her to endure 10 minutes in the enclosed space while various beasties were unleashed.

However, after seeing the task Lady C said: “I’m not starting it, sorry.”

“I have a cousin who was murdered by being buried alive, I’m not doing anything that is coffin like or involves coffins,” she explained. “I’m really sorry about this, I would gladly be a sport.”

After hearing her reasons, Lady C’s fellow campers were sympathetic to her reasons.

“She told us the tragic story of a relative buried alive and she was very clear to us she wouldn’t do any trial like that and we completely understood that,” Tony Hadley said.

Susannah Constantine agreed, saying: “We all support her.”
