It was a wet and rainy camp in tonight's explosive episode of I'm a Celebrity.
True to yesterday's form, Ant and Dec opened the episode with a dig at former UKIP leader Nigel Farage. Pointing out that Farage never became an MP, the duo declared he can have the 'Munching Penis' title now.
The show sees big-name celebrities take on various challenges and tasks in the Australian Jungle in the hope of being crowned king/queen of the jungle, overseen by the show's hosts Ant and Dec.
Farage later bared all in the shower, revealing his backside to a shocked Josie Gibson.
Hosts Ant and Dec said "fair play to the honourable member", but viewers weren't as thrilled.
"Please god no! Not Nigel Farage naked #ImACeleb #ImACelebrity," one user exclaimed.
Another said: "ITV please expect to be billed for the extensive therapy I’m going to need after seeing Nigel Farage naked".
Someone else replied: "Oh god there should have been a health warning before they showed a naked Farage."
Now that’s a sight for sore eyes 👀 🌕 #ImACeleb pic.twitter.com/vHGj2mD1Fz

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
