I’m a Celebrity’s Matt Hancock gags as he rifles through offal and is swarmed by millions of flies in grim Bushtucker trial

Matt Hancock is seen gagging in tonight’s Bushtucker trial on I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here, as he has to rifle through offal while being swarmed by millions of flies.

A preview video of Sunday night’s episode shows Hancock taking on his fifth Bushtucker trial, House of Horrors.

He’s locked into a grimy tank, which is filled with rotten meat and insects, as he searches for stars to feed his campmates.

‘Jeez!’ presenter Ant McPartlin exclaims in the video, before he and co-host Declan Donnelly are forced to turn away.

‘The thing you don’t know is this really smells too,’ Hancock informed them.

‘Did you not know that?’ Ant asked, mocking Hancock, with Dec responding: ‘I didn’t know that’.

‘What’s in the bath, Matt?’ Dec asks, with Hancock responding: ‘It’s, like, massive livers’ as he attempts to blow flies away from his face.

‘It’s offal, I think, in there,’ Dec offers.

‘Offal,’ Matt repeats, as he gags.

Dec went on to gasp, with Ant helpfully adding: ‘And two and a half million flies’.

‘Did you count them,’ Dec asks, with Ant saying: ‘Yep, counted them,’ as Hancock whimpers in the background.

At the end of Saturday night’s episode, Hancock – who only scored five out of a possible 11 stars with Owen Warner earlier on – was announced as the next one to be taking the Bushtucker trial.

As he takes on his fifth trial, some fans are a little bored of seeing the former health minister at the centre of the show every night.

‘Ugh I’m so annoyed, getting sick of it constantly being Matt doing trials, he’s getting too much screen time,’ one person wrote.

Another penned: ‘Right I get that Matt Hancock isn’t loved by the British public, but putting him in every trial on #ImACeleb is beyond petty.’

After Hancock was announced to be doing the fourth bushtucker trial earlier this week, some viewers even went so far as to suggest a new rule should be put in place to ensure contestants don’t do too many trials in a row, for fear that the series will become ‘boring’.

It comes after the sitting MP left campmates including Charlene White, Boy George, and Chris Moyles unimpressed with his arrival in the jungle.

I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! continues tonight at 9pm on ITV.
