I’m A Celebrity tonight: Matt Hancock and Seann Walsh trial

In a short clip released by ITV of tonight’s trial, Matt and Seann are seen making their way through a tunnel in complete darkness.

Matt says: “Okay, I’ve got to a tunnel,” as he feels his way around with Seann following behind.

Dec Donnelly tells them: “Feel around everywhere. They could be anywhere.”

Matt climbs into the tunnel before slime is dropped over him.

Letting out a squeal, he says: “Eugh! There’s a load of slurry just poured on my head.”

Seann asks: “Are you still carrying on?” to which Matt insists: “Yep!”

As Seann joins Matt in the tunnel, a load of critters are seen being poured onto his back.

Eugh! There’s a load of slurry just poured on my head.

Matt admits: “I can’t find any stars.”

Meanwhile, Seann is heard grunting as he struggles to make his way through the tunnel.

Of course, hosts Ant and Dec are seen laughing outside at the pair.

Matt then says to Seann: “Here is a left turn or straight on… what way do you want me to go?”

However, Seann exclaims: “Which way do I want you to go?! I’m not a sat nav, I don’t know!”

Matt then turns left, saying: “I’m going left. Can you feel my foot?”

The clip ends with Seann screaching as Matt tries to find stars.

Will they bag enough for their new campmates? We’ll have to tune in and see!

At the end of last night’s show, Matt and Seann’s arrivals were teased and the campmates were informed about two new arrivals.

However, the campmates weren’t told their identities so all they could do was speculate!

In his VT, Matt said: “This will be an adventure. When I’m in camp, people will just see the real me. Survival in the jungle is a good metaphor for the world that I work in.
