I’m A Celebrity: Matt Hancock and Owen get covered CUSTARD while their co-stars CHEAT during trial

Saturday night’s I’m A Celebrity saw Matt Hancock and Owen Warner covered in the likes of feathers, brown sauce and custard as they took part in the latest trial, Who Wants To Look Silly On Air.

The MP, 44, and the Hollyoaks star, 23, were put through their paces as a whole manner of messy substances were dropped on their heads as they answered questions to win stars in the jungle’s version of classic quiz show Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?

However, during the task, their fellow campmates – who headed to the trial clearing to watch the action – were reprimanded by hosts Ant and Dec for cheating on a question.  

After being voted to do every single trial since his arrival in the jungle earlier this week, disgraced former Health Secretary Matt joked it was ‘the most predictable outcome’ as his name was read out alongside Owen’s.

He then added: ‘It’s called looking silly on air, it will be me then!’

While Owen declared in the Bush Telegraph: ‘This right here, you’re looking at the dream team.’

Arriving for their challenge, Ant McPartlin explained to them: ‘This is the jungle’s version of the legendary TV show Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?

Oh dear! However, during the task, their fellow campmates – who headed to the trial clearing to watch the action – were reprimanded by hosts Ant and Dec for cheating on a question

‘Now I’m afraid for you two, there’s no cash up for grabs today. But there are 11 stars. We’re going to ask you six multiple choice questions. 

‘You’ve got 60 seconds to give us your final answer each time. The first question is worth one star, the rest of the questions from then on in are worth two stars each. Every star you win is worth a meal for camp.

‘As with the real show the audience are not allowed to help until you’re called upon.’ 

Declan Donnelly then added: ‘You do have some lifelines… [including] Ask The Hosts.’

And after clocking the politician’s expression, he laughed: ‘Don’t look so horrified Matt’, with Ant quick to quip: ‘I wouldn’t necessarily rush to use that one!’

Messy: Matt and Owen could barely see as they were covered in a thick layer of custard during the challenge

Hello yellow: The pair got absolutely covered in custard and other gunk during the very messy trial

Shower pending: The former Health Secretary no doubt needed an extra long bath following the trial

Had enough: The politician sas faced his fair share of trials this week

The trial started off well for Matt and Owen, who with after asking hosts Ant and Dec for help, correctly answered Gary Oldman when asked: ‘In the Harry Potter movies who played Sirius Black?’

Though the two were also doused in brown sauce while they deliberated their answer. 

Things then went downhill from there as when using their ‘Ask The Audience’ option, their fellow campmates failed to help them win stars after failing to guess which Australian city the Hemsworth brothers were born in.

Next up, as the duo were attempting to figure out who hadn’t won a Sports Personality Award, Owen began veering towards Michael Owen. 

But the campmates then started to cough and make noises, with Ant and Dec rapidly halting the trial.

Not cool! Reprimanding their shady actions, Dec said: ‘We’re going to stop there as there was some audience cheating then… so we’re going to have to take your answer of C Michael Owen’

Told off: Responding to the groans of the unhappy audience, he snapped: ‘It was your final answer as you all coughed! That was the rules guys!’ before revealing that the answer was in fact incorrect

Responding to the groans of the unhappy audience, he snapped: ‘It was your final answer as you all coughed! That was the rules guys!’ before revealing that the answer was in fact incorrect.

The trial also saw Matt and Owen call on Sue Cleaver for their ‘Phone A Friend’, with the Coronation Street actress correctly telling them which year the ITV soap began – though she was drenched for her efforts. 

As the duo persevered through Who Wants To Look Silly On Air, they were covered by a plethora of slimy substances as they battled their way to win a respectable five out of 11 stars.

What a mess! The trial started off well for Matt and Owen, who with after asking hosts Ant and Dec for help, correctly answered Gary Oldman when asked: ‘In the Harry Potter movies who played Sirius Black?’

Clucking around: Feathers rained on the duo as they attempted to win meals for camp

Hilarious: Owen didn’t appear too pleased about his new  look

Joining in: The trial also saw Matt and Owen call on Sue Cleaver for their ‘Phone A Friend’, with the Coronation Street actress correctly telling them which year the ITV soap began – though she was drenched for her efforts

But despite their best efforts, Owen wasn’t pleased with his performance as he moaned: ‘I’m not happy man, I’m covered in all sorts and we’ve only got 5 stars… he [Matt] was doing well until you got me on his team.’

He later reflected on the trial in the Bush Telegraph, with the actor – who has baffled campmates with his jungle gaffes – feeling dejected.

Owen said: ‘I’m feeling very disappointed, very deflated. I’m not the smartest geezer about, which is probably why I got put to do that.

‘I feel a bit awful… I feel really tight that I’ve let the campmates down a little bit.’

I’m A Celebrity continues Sunday at 9pm on ITV and ITV Hub.
