Live insects won't be eaten on this year's I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here.

ITV had been criticised for using live bugs as part of their 'Bushtucker Trials', either as food or being thrown onto contestants.

Animal campaigners said that it was unnecessarily cruel.

But this year ITV has said: "Producers have taken a look at the trials and decided that no live critters would be eaten in the trials this year."

Wildlife presenter Chris Packham has campaigned for this to happen for a long time.

He said he's "very pleased" at ITV's decision, but describes it as "a first step."
