Owen Warner might have gained a reputation as the least knowledgeable celebrity in camp, but in tonight's trial he snapped at Matt Hancock over a wrong answer fuming "I could have told you that".

The pair were teamed up for I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!'s latest bushtucker trial and hungry Hollyoaks actor Warner was desperate to win as many meals as possible for camp.

In the challenge titled Who Wants To Look Silly On Air?, they took on a Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? style quiz - while also being showered with insects, guts and gunge during questions.

Given a series of global landmarks and asked which one was nearest to camp, Hancock gave a detailed reasoning for his answer, talking about where each site was.

But he wrongly gave the answer of the Taj Mahal rather than Mount Fuji, leaving Warner glaring at him in rage.

As he had prepared to answer, MP Hancock asked: "Are you happy with that?" and Warner had replied: "I'm happy with whatever you say."

But when hosts Ant and Dec told them it was wrong, an angry Warner snapped: "I thought you said it weren't the Taj Mahal?"

Hancock blustered: "Cause I can't see the question, I didn't..."

But Warner interrupted telling him to stop making excuses: "No, don't blame not seeing the question.

"Did you think it was furthest away? Ah, man, I could have told you that."

Hancock replied: "I know, I'm so sorry."

At the end of the trial, Warner still looked furious as he told Ant and Dec: "I'm not happy man, I'm covered in all sorts and I've got five stars."

But he did acknowledge Hancock's previous 11-star wins in trials, saying: "He was doing well until he got me on his team."

Later, Warner told the Bush Telegraph: "I’m feeling very disappointed, very deflated. I’m not the smartest geezer about, which is probably why I got put to do that. I feel a bit awful… I feel really tight that I’ve let the campmates down a little bit."

At the end of Saturday's episode, Hancock was told that he had been voted by viewers to take on a fifth consecutive trial, meaning he has been in every one of the trials since he entered the show.

I'm A Celebrity continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV.
