I'm A Celebrity star Matt Hancock banned from appearing on ITV show

Jonathan Ross has banned Matt Hancock from ever appearing on his ITV show.

The comedian has interviewed more than 1,000 stars over 475 episodes of The Jonathan Ross Show. But he has said that the Tory MP will never be welcomed into his studio, despite his I'm a Celeb stint.

Describing Mr Hancock, who has now lost the Tory Party whip, he told Mirror's Sunday People : “He was very bad when he was in office and he’s – remarkably – even worse now he’s out of it!”

When asked if he would ever have Mr Hancock on his show, Jonathan said: "No, I wouldn’t. He’s not a celebrity. He’s a horrible human being and I cannot bear the way people take no responsibility for their actions."

However, the 61-year-old TV presenter is still enjoying watching the rest of the famous faces in the Australian camp. He said: "I am enjoying it. It’s a very interesting year and it’s great fun to see how they are mixed together. I am more impressed by the women then the men."
