I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out Of Here presenter Ant McPartlin didn't spare Sue Cleaver as she took a swipe during the celebs' latest challenge. Coronation Street star Sue was chosen to be former health secretary Matt Hancock and Hollyoaks actor Owen Warner's 'phone a friend' in the jungle reality show's Who Wants To Be A Millionaire-inspired trial.
Before getting the chance to answer the question 'which of these happened first?', which had 'Coronation Street first aired' as one of the options, Sue begged the begged the presenting duo Ant and Dec to be spared from embarrassment and snapped: "Oh, please don't humiliate me on TV."
But Ant retorted bluntly: "Well, don't come on I'm A Celebrity then Sue!" Fans of the ITV programme were in stitches at his brutal response. @WheatLowe repeated the exchange with laughing and applause emojis. "Sue-'Don’t humiliate me on live TV!' Ant-“well don’t come on I’m a Celebrity!'"

@lottiemcquillan tweeted: "'Well don’t come on I’m a Celebrity then Sue' ANT GETTING FIESTY." @graceeex__ said: "The sass from Ant and Dec this trial is killing me." And @AndyGibsonTV said: "Anthony McPartlin was no chill with the 'don't come on I'm A Celebrity then' to Sue Cleaver."
Sue, who plays grumpy Eileen Grimshaw in Corrie, got drenched in green gunge while she sat on the phone. Owen demanded: “Leave Sue alone!" and some fans thought Sue's brief cameo in the game Who Wants To Look Silly On Air? was a brilliant taster for her doing a full trial after seeing Matt voted to do the majority so far.
@RyanGSoapKing11 said: "Voting for Sue tonignt as I want to see her do a full trial." And @BRATTYBARBl wrote gleefully: "Sue needs to do a trial Omg! She’s gonna kick off."
Also taking to Twitter @wyschavicon said: "Shall be voting for queen sue xx" However at the end of Saturday night's episode, the news was delivered that Matt will take on yet another trial House of Horrors tomorrow night.
