I'm A Celebrity: time's up for Timmy!

Timmy Mallett has become the fourth person to leave the I'm A Celebrity... jungle after losing to Brian Paddick in a surprise task.

The wacky TV presenter learned on Saturday night's show that he and Brian - who were in the bottom two - would go head to head in a Bushtucker trial, with the loser leaving camp and the winner getting immunity from Sunday's eviction.

Highlights from the trial, The Last Chance Saloon, were shown on Sunday night's show.

The pair found themselves having to consume a selection of special 'cocktails' and snacks made up of unpleasant jungle 'delicacies'.

Brian eventually pipped Timmy in the task - but he admitted defeat graciously on Sunday evening's show.

"On the day I'm beaten in battle, and fair game to Brian, he did win it," he told Ant and Dec.

"Of course I'm disappointed but I wasn't voted off, I was beaten in battle and in that sense I'm comfortable with that."

And he described his experience in the jungle as "really enjoyable".

"I had a lovely time, there were so many things to laugh at," he said. "And I'm delighted that David and I went into camp together. That friendship was a real bedrock for me."

As well as winning the task, Brian has also won himself immunity from the next eviction on Sunday night.
