The Celebrity Circle debuted on Channel 4 on Tuesday night, as a series of famous faces set up camp in eight apartments in order to catfish one another.
Among them were national treasure Denise Van Outen and Blue pop hunk Duncan James.
Also taking part was Saffron Barker – initially a YouTube vlogger who took part on Strictly Come Dancing 2019.
‘Get in the bin!’ The Celebrity Circle viewers were left fuming at YouTuber Saffron Barker for asking ‘who are they?’ about national treasure Denise Van Outen and Blue star Duncan James during Tuesday’s debut episode
But Saffron, 20, made a bad first impression among viewers of the show, when she admitted she had no idea who Denise and Duncan were.
‘HOW does Saffron not know Denise or Duncan?!’ one person despaired.
A second penned: ‘How does #saffron in @C4TheCircle not know the icon @denise_vanouten?’
‘Saffron has seriously never heard of Duncan James or Denise Van Outen? Get in the bin!!!’ a third raged.

On top of this, Denise and Duncan were among the lowest-rated stars.
Along with Lady Leshurr – masquerading as comedian Big Narstie – they will have the power to eliminate one of the others.
