I’M A Celeb viewers were left in hysterics as Tony Bellew was left at his wits end with Ant and Dec on tonight’s tense Bushtucker trial.
As the professional boxer, 41, arrived at the trial clearing and saw a giant replica snake waiting for him.
Ant explained: “Tony, this is Eaten Alive. You are going to be eaten alive by this giant snake. Once you’re inside the snake you’ve got to make your way through its digestive system and out through the other end, out through its rectum.
“The stars are hidden in and amongst all of the intestines. There are 10 stars and you’ve got 10 minutes to find them. Every star in the star bag at the end of time is a meal for camp.”
Dec added: “However, there might be a few surprises along the way. You can stop the Trial at any time by saying I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! And we’ll get you out there.
“But that means you’ll forfeit any further stars. You don’t have to do it. You can head back to camp. But you will be going back empty handed.”
But it didn’t take him long to snap back at the Geordie presenters.
As Tony prepared to go into the snake he encouraged himself and said: “Come on lad”.
Crawling down the snake’s throat and into the stomach, Tony first found rotten fruit and veg.
Tony said: “The smell… the smell… oh god…”
Struggling to find the second star in amongst the rotten food, Tony skipped it and moved onto the next part of the snake.
Here Tony was in with snakes, and Ant said: “I reckon you’ve conquered your fear of snakes now.”
Tony piped up and replied: “I don’t know, my heartrate says different.”
As he continued to work his way through the intestines, facing rats and spiders, Ant said of his family watching at home: “Will the lads have voted for you to do a Trial?”
Tony furiously added: “Yeah, of course they will!”
They then continued to tell him to “not pull on the string as it will make it tighter”, leaving Tony fuming as he hit back “I’m not pulling the thread”.
Managing to secure 9 out of 10 stars Tony excited via the mock snake’s rectum.
As he stood up Tony referenced Gladiator as he yelled: “Is this all you’ve got for me? Are you not entertained?! Is this not why you are here?”
And summing it up in one word, Tony described the Trial as: “Disgusting.”
Viewers were left in stitches at Tony’s reaction.
One wrote: “Who wouldn’t like to see Tony toss Dec across the jungle like a caber??”
Another posted: “Tony bellew is GOLD.”
A third laughed: “Ant & Dec: ‘Remember Tony don’t pull on the string it makes it tighter’…that was hilarious.”
