Amir Khan has been holed up in the jungle for a couple of weeks now but it was only recently that he actually discovered that the whole thing is being filmed and he can't really get away from the cameras.

The announcement of Amir Khan going to Australia to take part in 'I'm A Celebrity. Get Me Out Of Here' there were inevitably a lot of jokes about how far he'd go to avoid a fight with Kell Brook.

Of course it quickly became apparent that Brook isn't the fight that most worries the Olympic silver medalist. No in fact it's any tussle with a snake that most freaks Khan out, even if it's a quick brush with a small snake.

Hows Amir Khan pulling the snake out :joy::joy:


The 30 year old admitted that he'd never even watched the programme in it's 16 series to date before stepping foot in Ant and Dec's jungle, which led to him being so confused that they'd have him face his fear of snakes so early in the show.

But what's even more hilarious is he didn't even know he was always being filmed. 'I'm A Celebrity. Extra Camp' presenter Joe Dummett revealed that the boxer didn't know the 'Bush Telegraph' part was being filmed, saying:

"Someone told me this and I don't know whether I'm allowed to say this - but I'm bloody doing it! Someone said to me that when he was first in the Bush Telegraph, for the first couple of days, he didn't know he was being filmed.

"Isn't that the sweetest thing you've ever heard? He thought he was just talking to someone and it was just like a weird little, sort of, therapist."

Khan did surprise his fellow campers last week by not knowing that Theresa May is Prime Minister by saying, "Could a woman be Prime Minister?" before answering himself, "Oh, yeah, Margaret Thatcher."

Hopefully by the time he returns he'll realise he was on TV and who the Prime Minister is, hopefully.
