“Nadine’s bushtucker trials were a revelation – a rare opportunity to see bollocks going into a politician’s mouth, rather than coming out of it. Nadine says the ex-Chief Whip gave her permission to go to the jungle, which he denies. In fairness to him, Andrew Mitchell didn’t know ‘I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here’ is a TV show – it’s just what he says to get people to open gates for him.”
