Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly have been at the helm of I\u2019m A Celebrity for two decades. <\/p>\n

The pair were back for the final time this year in last night\u2019s (December 10) final, which saw Made in Chelsea star Sam Thompson crowned the winner. <\/p>\n

It came after weeks of brutal trials, campmate rows, as well as some very wholesome friendships made. <\/p>\n

But many fans of the show had a a demand for Ant and Dec during the last episode of the series on Sunday. <\/p>\n

In the all-male final, Sam, along with Tony Bellew and Nigel Farage, had to take on one final Bushtucker Trial.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tony was up first, and was covered in all different critters and jungle horrors, including fish guts, mealworms and spiders. <\/p>\n

The former boxer labelled the task a \u201cdisgrace\u201d and called this fellow campmates \u201ca*******s\u201d as the critters bit him.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

Ant and Dec – along with Nigel and Sam – struggled to hide their laughter throughout, leading to fans making quite the suggestion. <\/p>\n

They called for the two hosts to give trials a go in the future, with one fan sharing: \u201c"I genuinely want to see Ant and Dec put themselves in the jungle lmao.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another added: \u201cIf Ant & Dec aren\u2019t contestants in the final ever series of @imacelebrity I\u2019m not watching. It\u2019s got to be done.\u201d<\/p>\n

"We need a one off episode with Ant and Dec doing the trials because I\u2019m sick of them standing there,\u201d someone else agreed.<\/p>\n

A viewer echoed: "Ant and Dec need to actually go into the jungle next time, it's been a long time coming.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

At one point during the trial, Sam told his newfound pal: \u201cJust pretend you're Nigel.\u201d<\/p>\n

But Tony quickly shouted back: "No thanks,\u201d which left the hosts laughing, and a shocked Nigel responding with: "Charming…"<\/p>\n

After the sportsman endured the grim trial, Sam was faced with an eating trial while Nigel had to take on the Panic Pit.<\/p>\n

All three of the finalists managed to complete their final tasks, meaning they got to feast like kings in their choice of three-course meals.<\/p>\n

The final result saw Sam win, while Tony took second place and former UKIP politician Nigel finish in third place.<\/p>\n

Sam made his surprise at the win very clear, telling the hosts: \u201cI\u2019m really overwhelmed, I didn\u2019t think I was even going to be invited on this show.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking to voters, he said: \u201cI am so grateful, thank you so much, I\u2019ve dreamt of doing this show for years and years, and you made this boy\u2019s dream come true.\u201d<\/p>\n
