I'm A Celebrity's Ant and Dec shut down 'spoiler' accusations in defiant response to critic

Ant and Dec have refuted accusations that they 'spoiled' the World Cup for football fans during Tuesday's I'm A Celebrity, after they discussed one of the results during the latest episode of their ITV show.

After Monday's edition of the much loved jungle programme was delayed due to the channel's coverage of Wales' opening match in Qyar against USA, there was no schedule changes for Tuesday's episode, with it kicking off in its usual 9pm timeslot. However, while I'm A Celebrity wasn't impacted by any World Cup action, that didn't stop Ant and Dec from addressing one of the day's scorelines: the fact that Australia, where the show is set, were on the receiving end of a 4-1 defeat in their opener.

The Aussies were soundly beaten by France, thank to goals by Rabiot, Giroud and Mbappe, after Craig Goodwin had given them a shock lead in the ninth minute. And, having been watching the match before cameras starting rolling, along with the crew Down Under, Ant and Dec couldn't resist getting a little dig in on set in front of millions of viewers.
