I’M A Celebrity fans were in hysterics last night as comedian Seann Walsh dropped a very immature joke into Mike Tindall’s serious politics chat.
The former rugby star and royal family member finally gave his opinion on the state of British politics and it wasn’t easy listening for Tory MP Matt Hancock.

Burly Mike baulked at the thought of former prime minister Boris Johnson even being considered for a return to the post by some of his peers.
Following his rant there was a moment of silence, which Seann decided to fill by saying: “Have you ever set a fart a light?”
Viewers were more amused than Mike, who was baffled by the left-field comment, saying: “No. Strange question. Where did that come from?”
One viewer wrote on Twitter: “Mike: wants a serious conversation
Seann: ‘what you ever set a fart a light?’ #ImACelebrity.”
Another posted: “Mike: ‘All politicians are 
for them to even have the conversation just cos they’re all Boris fans… they wouldn’t pick the best person for the job, just sums politicians up.’ Sadly his audience was Seann who just wanted to light a fart. #ImACeleb.”
A third said: “Mike bitching at Matt and Seann just doesn’t want to get involved. ‘Light a fart’! Awesome way to change the subject. #imaceleb.”
This morning Mike was accused of “prostituting himself” by going on I’m A Celebrity and revealing he once accidentally flashed his royal mother-in-law.
Mike ripped his trousers while dancing at a wedding and revealed his novelty boxers that said “nibble my nuts” to Princess Anne.
The rare royal moment was discussed on Good Morning Britain today and host Richard Madeley, who took part in the jungle series last year, said he thought it was “just a cheeky story”.
But former BBC royal commentator Michael Cole said Princess Anne would be “mortified” and added: “Listen, Mike Tindall is a nice guy, a World Cup-winning hero … what on earth is he doing demeaning himself and diminishing the royal family in this show?
The Good Morning Britain guest ripped into Mike more and said: “He should have a sign on his head saying, ‘I’m only doing this for the money!’ And of course it is a large amount of money.”
Richard lept to Mike’s defence and said: “So what you’re basically saying is shouldn’t be, quote, prostituting himself for the sake of an ITV entertainment programme.
“I did it last year and I wasn’t prostituting myself, I was curious, I thought it was fun..”
Michael replied: “You are a television presenter, and a brilliant one, it is your job.”

He then reminded viewers of a time in 2011 when Mike was fined and suspended by the RFU for throwing a dwarf in a New Zealand bar.
He said: “Now look, Mike’s got form here. This is not his first rodeo. He’s been around the block a few times.”
