Vernon Kay strips off on I’m A Celeb in shower scenes as viewers all make same joke

Vernon was compared to Buddy the Elf from the Christmas movie

| Updated:

Vernon Kay stunned I’m A Celeb viewers last night when he stripped off for a shower.

The former Family Fortunes host, 46, used the new shower in Gwrych Castle with the help of campmate Jordan North, who had to pump the water.

However, viewers were left comparing Vernon’s shower scenes to a moment in Christmas classic film Elf.

In the festive movie, actor Will Ferrell is seen as Buddy the Elf attempting to wash in a very small shower.

A third added: “Vernon Kay looks like Elf in the shower.”

Another joked: “If Vernon dosen’t say ‘the best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear’ I will be disappointed,” referring to a line Buddy the Elf says in the movie.

She said: “Shower scene…” followed by a laughing face emoji.

Tess also shared a video of Jordan and Vernon helping each other in the bathroom.

She wrote: “I see a bromance starting.”
