I’m A Celebrity star Mo Farah left viewers gobsmacked last night when he appeared to be holding what looked like a mobile phone.

Towards the end of Wednesday (November 18) evening’s episode, newcomers Russell Watson and Ruthie Henshall did the honours of bringing the meals into camp.

What happened in the fourth episode of I’m A Celebrity?

The singer and the West End star did a three-part trial that saw them covered in rotten vegetables, showered with insects and bursting eyeballs in their mouths.

But they came away victorious, winning an impressive 11 stars for camp.

Later, Ruthie lowered the celebs’ meal box into camp using the pulley and Russell read out the message that came with it.

At one point, the camera cut to Sir Mo Farah, who was standing with the other celebs, and some eagle-eyed viewers thought the Olympic legend was holding what looked like a phone.
