Nick Knowles has left I’m A Celebtrity viewers slightly flustered as he stripped down to a pair of speedos.

On Tuesday night’s episode, the DIY SOS presenter offered to help campmate Emily Atack collect some water for the camp, however, it seems the Australian heat was getting too much for him.

He explained to Emily, 28, that he couldn’t take on the task fully clothed so he decided to strip down to his tiny red trunks.

He told Emily: “You’ll have to excuse me doing it in my swimming trunks but you get so wet.”

Emily descended into giggles as she tried not to look at Nick.

Nick added: “This is so mental, I love that the socks match as well,” referring to his red socks.

Emily admitted in the Bush Telegraph that she struggled to conduct the task next to Nick in his trunks.

Another wrote: “Nick Knowles budgie smugglers… Absolutely not. Genuinely find Speedos/swimming trunks absolutely offensive.”

A third added: “Nick’s innuendos while wearing budgie smugglers is one of the most cringy things I’ve ever witnessed.”

However, others were left slightly hot under the collar.
