Has Matt Hancock finally met his match in the jungle? The controversial politician is seen trapped in an underground chamber as he struggles during his latest I’m A Celebrity trial.
In classic I'm a Celeb style, the MP creeps through thousands of critters to find keys to unlock stars. It's his latest attempt to earn food for campmates, some of whom have been hostile to him.
On Sunday night, the public voted for Hancock, 44, to take part in his sixth consecutive challenge since joining the ITV reality show last week. He has so far overcome the challenges to earn lots of meals for the celebs – but has he finally come unstuck this time?

In a preview of tonight's episode, he is tasked with unlocking 11 stars in 11 minutes to earn meals for his campmates. Lying on his back in an underground chamber, Hancock can be seen frantically searching in boxes containing spiders and cockroaches for keys which unlock padlocks containing stars.
Puzzled, he says: “I can’t find anything,” with co-host Declan reassuring him saying: “Feel all around for the keys”. During the trial, Hancock notices a snake near his face in the chamber, saying to himself: “That’s a snake”.
It comes after he faced his fear of snakes in his previous trial House of Horrors where a snake attempted to strike him at eye level. On Monday, foreign secretary James Cleverly said that he had not cast a vote for Hancock during his appearance on I’m A Celebrity.
Speaking on LBC, he was asked if he had voted for the former health secretary to take part in any of the Bushtucker trials. “I can give you an unequivocal answer on this one. I have not voted either for or against my former ministerial colleague,” he said.
The episode will also see Hancock as leader of the I’m A Celebrity campsite after going head-to-head with former England rugby star Mike Tindall for control of the campsite.
I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! continues on ITV at 9pm.
