Emmerdale fans 'spot I'm a Celebrity campmate' in courtroom

Emmerdale fans were taken aback on Wednesday night when they thought they'd seen an I'm a Celebrity campmate in some of the episode's scenes.

Nicola King had her day in court after being viciously attacked by a group or girls earlier this year. Nicola had been out with her sister, Bernice, and friend, Laurel, when she decided to head home early.

She was accosted by a group of teenage girls in a car park. Nicola being Nicola, she tried to stand her ground, but was soon knocked unconscious and badly beaten.

After the unprovoked attack in a carpark, Nicola was left deeply traumatised, leading to a breakdown. Wednesday's episode saw Nicola face her attackers in court, but the defence barrister was brutal, twisting her words and accusing Naomi of framing the group for a crime they didn't commit.

Amid all the drama, however, many viewers recognised a "familiar" face in the gallery. A man behind Bernice and Jimmy, according to some fans, looked like Mike Tindall - who is currently in the I'm a Celebrity camp.

Taking to Twitter, Gav said: "Mike Tindall behind Bernice in the gallery", while Sarah said: "Mike Tindall in the gallery there". Mick said: "Celeb jury?"
