Ant and Dec thank I'm A Celebrity viewers after voting rallying call helps end 'boring' trend

Ant and Dec shared in the delight of I'm A Celebrity viewers at home that Matt Hancock wasn't voted to do the latest Bushtucker Trial, right after they faced demands for show rules to be changed.

As soon as his name was linked to an appearance in the new series of I'm A Celebrity, the former Health Secretary hasn't been far away from headlines or from controversy, as many members of the public were incensed that he'd been given an opportunity to be one of TV's best loved shows.

Matt went into the jungle as a late arrival alongside Seann Walsh last week and, after doing a joint trial with the ex Strictly star before they went into camp, he's been voted to do five consecutive trials, the most recent being Deserted Down Under, which saw him in a coffin surrounded by 30 snakes during Monday's episode.
