ITV Good Morning Britain viewers have filed official complaints about the morning show after a 'car crash' interview with Matt Hancock aired. The programme was broadcast last Tuesday, January 31.
During the interview, show hosts Richard Madeley and Susanna Reid quizzed the former health secretary on his controversial appearance in reality TV show, I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here. The questioning was mainly levelled at his fee for appearing on the show, which amounted to a whopping £320,000.
When tackled on the subject, Hancock, 44, insisted he did not "primarily" go on I'm A Celebrity for the money. He told the presenters that the three percent of fee he donated to charity was a "decent sum". The former MP said the £10,000 donation was "more than my MPs’ salary" that he still received while appearing on the show in the Australian jungle.
