Ant McPartlin didn't pull any punches when a fan asked him a question about I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here. The presenter has been back on screens alongside co-host and sidekick Dec Donnelly as the pair returned to Australia for the first time in three years for the ITV reality show.
And every night after they host the show live, with some pre-recorded jungle action in between, the Geordie duo head straight to their joint Instagram page where they go live to chat to viewers about what they've just seen on-screen. However, Ant has been getting riled up as fans make suggestions for future series line-ups.
And some of the outlandish requests got to Ant and he didn't hold back. "Hold on... Taylor Swift... next year," Ant said picking up on one of the comments made during their live appearance on the social media platform. As Dec laughed in the background, Ant stood in front of the camera and fumed: "Right, seriously. It's getting beyond a joke now because you're an idiot for saying that."

As he went to return to his spot behind Dec, his co-star said: "Just stay there, someone's said Ed Sheeran." Kicking off again, Ant raged: "Right, you're a bigger idiot because he's never going to do it. Taylor Swift's not going to do it, Ed Sheeran's not going to do it... Peter Kay is NOT going to do it. He's just announced a tour, you idiot!"
And his rage appeared to continue following Wednesday night's show as more suggestions came flooding in. Ant went on another 'idiot' rant over the mention of actor Tom Hardy and then England and Spurs footballer Harry Kane. But the mere mention of Beyonce had Ant pushing his co-host out of the way and calling out the name of the fan live.
But soon it wasn't just their celebrity suggestions that got Ant shouting into the camera. Reading out a question posted in the comments, Dec said: "Why don't you two go in?" Again, forcing his co-host to step aside, Ant got in front of the phone that had been perched on a tripod in their studio amid the trees and leaves of the jungle.
As Dec laughed in the background, Ant fumed: "Right... that is never, ever, ever going to happen!" However, he did add: "If I did go in, I'd win it, right!" He then laughed with Dec before clarifying: "I wouldn't but I would enjoy it!"
Ant then turned to Dec and asked: "Out of all the shows to go, this would be the one I'd pick, what about you?" before his pal replied: "Erm, Strictly!" And couldn't help but burst out laughing and the crew behind the camera also have a lot of loud laughs. "It's just dancing about, innit?" Dec added.
But Strictly Come Dancing's head judge Shirley Ballas actually has her eye on another I'm A Celeb star. When asked by Metro who she'd like to see in the Strictly Class of 2023 while on the TV Choice Awards red carpet recently, she said: "It's got to be somebody from the royal family, and I've been watching I'm a Celebrity and I do like Mr Tindall."
She added: "I think, come on, come on now, that guy. I've been looking at his neckline, I want to say to him: 'You have a beautiful ballroom posture.'"
