‘Who was born closest to the invention of the Walkman?’ Matt Hancock makes the camp miss out on chocolate after awkwardly guessing the age of his I’m a Celebrity co-stars wrong after Deals on Wheels challenge

Matt Hancock wasn’t the most favourite person in the jungle on I’m a Celebrity on Friday, after he made the camp miss out on a chocolate prize.

The politician, 44, awkwardly answered a question wrong about the age of his campmates that made them miss out on the sweet treat.

‘Who was born closest to the invention of the Walkman – Babatunde, Chris or Sue?’ the group were asked.

Upon Matt’s advice, he guessed Babatunde Aleshe, 34, was born closest to the invention of the Walkman in 1979.

Chris Moyles, 48, was born in 1974, while Sue Cleaver, 59, was born in 1963.

‘That is my bad, that is entirely my fault,’ Matt said after guessing incorrectly.

‘Who was born closest to the invention of the Walkman – Babatunde, Chris or Sue?’ the group were asked

‘I feel so bad,’ he added.

Boy George quipped afterwards: ‘You’re supposed to be our leader!’

Beforehand, Chris and Babatunde completed the Deals On Wheels challenge, which saw them separate different potatoes while trying to count items coming down a tube.

‘We’re not here for a good time, we’re here for a long time,’ Chris quipped.

It comes after Matt’s girlfriend Gina Coladangelo flew to Australia to support him in the jungle.

The former parliamentary aide will be on hand to greet him whenever he is evicted from the jungle — joining Zara Phillips and Chris’ partner Tiffany Austin at the Marriott hotel in Surfers Paradise, on Queensland’s Gold Coast.

The mother-of-three flew business class and was met by a member of the ITV team but refused to comment when asked about Matt’s stint in the jungle so far.

A source told MailOnline: ‘Gina remained tightlipped at the airport – but she smiled when asked if she was looking forward to flying to Australia and seeing Matt again.

‘She looked glamorous in a stylish emerald green coat that she wore over the top of an all-black outfit with comfortable trainers.

‘Walking through departures, she looked nothing but relaxed ahead of the long trip to Australia, where she will finally be reunited with Matt.’
