Matt Hancock swims with creepie crawlies and water snakes on second I'm A Celeb trial

Matt Hancock will be forced to swim amongst creepie crawlies, water snakes and lobsters when he takes on his second I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! Bushtucker Trial on Thursday night.

The Tory MP is forced to dive for stars while a massive metal ball with tentacles that he's enclosed in moves further down into a pool of water and decreases his fresh air supply.

The former health secretary faces the Tentacles of Terror in a bid to win a decent amount of grub for the rest of his campmates in new footage released by ITV which will air on Thursday.

In the clip, it shows Matt searching for stars in a cage as water levels continue to rise and he is joined by more and more unwelcome guests.

He entered the jungle on Tuesday along with comedian Seann Walsh, but it wasn't until Wednesday night fans of the programme caught a glimpse of them in action.

Matt has come under fire for going Down Under and already received a grilling from TV presenter and journalist Charlene White.

Many of his campmates are so far unimpressed with his appearance in the jungle, and on ITV Lorraine this morning, Boy George's childhood pal DJ Fat Tony said he'll give the pop star two to three days before he expressed his feelings to Matt Hancock, who was health secretary during the pandemic.

He added: "You know that whole period where his mum was ill in the middle of the covid situation, and you know, he's speaking for a nation.

"So many people feel the same. People are finding this hard to watch because of the situation that they went through. Lockdown was really really an awful time for so many people because we were powerless. And George is powerless in there as well."

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! 2022 continues tonight at 9pm on STV and STV Player.
