Ant McPartlin, 45, and Dec Donnelly, 46, have come under fire from animal rights charity PETA, for their latest I'm A Celebrity advert.The official trailer for this year's series was released on Friday last week, which sees the boys dressed as knights and gallantly riding horses across the Welsh plains.While the advert was in keeping with the TV duo's silly sense humour, PETA and some others took issue with the fact that Ant appeared to be riding a small Shetland pony that they believed was far "too small" for him.It comes after the shared a behind-the-scenes video on their joint Instagram account that sees them on-set of the trailer where Ant's little horse is messing around.Joking that he was "doing a little dance", the footage then.
