A body language expert has broken down Ant McPartlin’s reaction to Dean McCullough after the presenter admitted he was 'unprofessional'.
ITV viewers have been treated to quite a few of Dean's dramatics this week - given that he yelled out 'I'm a celebrity, get me out of here' in two trials so far.
And Ant's supposed disappointment over the 32-year-old BBC Radio 1 host throwing the towel in two times in a row clearly didn't go unnoticed with fans at home, with many rushing to social media to share their thoughts on the matter.

One Twitter user said: "Dying at how obvious it is that Ant cannot stand Dean."
"Not Ant telling off Dean for doing s**te in the last 2 trials," quipped a second, while a third chimed in: "Ant cannot STAND Dean and he’s not even trying to hide it lmaoo."
After the 'Sinister Sarcophagus' trial, it soon became clear that neither Ant nor Dec were pleased with the move, telling I'm A Celebrity Unpacked viewers they wanted to see the trial 'done properly'.
And when discussing the events during last night's Unpacked segment, Ant admitted: "My annoyance came across on screen and I was quite unprofessional and I’m not happy about it."
Reflecting on his behaviour, the presenter explained: "You get to the point where you’re like 'What are you doing?'"
"I think you hid it quite well," Dec jokingly mocked.
However, Ant has said he'd be 'kinder' to Dean as he faces his fourth trial, adding: "I’m going to try good cop today."
Since then, body language expert Judi James told Tyla that Ant and Dec 'seem to be losing their patience' with Dean.
Speaking on behalf of Paddy Power Games, she continued: "While their sympathy over his early distress in Bushtucker trials looked genuine, his trait of flipping from total devastation rituals to show-boating behaviours that include throwing banter at Ant and Dec is looking counter-intuitive."
The expert also pointed out that, when Dean said he was only 'aiming for one' star when the camp are starving, Ant sucked his lips inward in 'an expression of disapproval' while even Dec’s smile froze and then dropped.
"Dec was literally pinching his lips together with his fingers in a gesture that suggested he was trying to keep quiet about his feelings," Judi noted.
