I'm A Celebrity viewers spot tell-tale signs of crew's real feelings about Matt Hancock

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! viewers have picked up on signs that the crew working on the programme may "hate" Matt Hancock.

The disgraced MP came third in the ITV programme during the grand finale episode on Sunday, which saw Lioness Jill Scott crowned Queen of the Jungle.

However, as Hancock entered the ITV studio, eagle-eyed viewers picked up on "tell-tale signs" of their true feelings towards the backbench MP.

While most celebrities enter the studio to an eruption of applause, the makeshift jungle studio was silent as Hancock crossed the famous bridge to meet hosts Ant and Dec.

Shortly after the scenes aired on Sunday night, viewers instantly took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the matter.

One tweeted: "Literally. No one else. Gave him a round of applause. LOL."

"Lol no studio applause for Matt," said a second.

Before a third typed: "Did anyone else sense quietness from the camera crew when Matt arrived & left studio Didn't really want to cheer & clap for him."

After a whopping 12 million votes were cast, Ant and Dec announced that Hancock had placed third while Hollyoaks star Owen Warner had come second on the show, leaving him speechless.

During his exit interview, the Chester-born MP said: "I know that it was controversial me coming here, I know some people said people in your position shouldn't put themselves in embarrassing situations.

"But we're all human and we all put ourselves in it."

The former Health Secretary added: "I just went in absolutely clear that I was going to be totally myself as if the cameras weren't on and that's what I did.

"And that is what I'm like in private!"

He continued: "I wanted to show what I was like as a person. Lots of people come to me with preconceived ideas, for obvious reasons.

"And I just wanted to be myself. But I also actually strongly believe that for politicians as a whole, we don't come across as human enough. And this is probably the most extreme way of just showing who you are, I am someone who throws himself into things.

"And we managed to talk about some important things here."

Meanwhile, other viewers think they spotted signs that Dec was not a fan of Hancock with many sharing their reactions online.

"Ant & Dec gave every campmate who left the jungle a hug and but when Matt Hancock left, they just shook his hand #ImACelebrity," said one.

While another commented: "Dec absolutely HATES Matt Hancock! #ImACelebrity #ImACeleb."

"Dec deffo dislikes Matt, you can see it 10,304 miles away #ImACelebrity #ImACeleb #MattHanock," said a third.
