Beverley Callard's 'stupid' insult of Vernon Kay on I'm a Celebrity

I'm A Celebrity's Beverley Callard felt pretty bad in Tuesday night's episode after labelling TV show Splash "stupid" in front of its presenter Vernon Kay.

The celebrities chatted around the fire and talk then turned to the ITV show Splash, which ended in 2014.

On the show celebrities were taught the art of diving and Vernon presented two series alongside Gabby Logan.

Coronation Street star Beverley said she thought it was the most "stupid" programme ever, not realising Vernon's involvement.

“It kept my central heating on though Beverley," Vernon replied.

The celebrities then reminded Beverley that Vernon used to present the programme.

“Oh no, I’m so sorry, Vernon, I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry.”

And everyone couldn't stop laughing.

Talking in the Telegraph, Beverley, 63, said: “I wanted to curl up and die, poor Vernon. I’m notorious for putting my foot in it, and I really did there.”

Also in tonight's show, Shane Richie was chosen by the public to take on Cruel Jewels, his first solo trial so far where he picked up an impressive 12 stars.

Shane was seen inserting his head into a box where he was surrounded by 200 spiders and cobwebs.

The 56-year-old had to crawl through the display cabinets trying to find and collect the stars along the way in order to win meals for camp.

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV.
