I'M A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here has been rocked by nearly 2,000 Ofcom complaints about Matt Hancock in the jungle. Viewers have taken to the broadcasting regular to object about the former Health Secretary taking part in the celebrity competition.
MP Matt, 44, was revealed to be part of the line-up of this year's show just days before it hit screens earlier this month. His inclusion sparked outrage from ITV fans as well as politicians - and now, almost 2,000 complaints have been submitted to Ofcom.
Despite only being on air for just over a week, the programme has received a mammoth 1968 official complaints as fans fume. The broadcasting regulator confirmed that around 1,100 of these complaints were directly linked to the MP being in the jungle, with some also voicing concerns about how he was being treated.
