Don’t Rock The Boat: Jack Fincham’s swipe at James Cracknell has viewers in stitches

The Love Islander was told off by the Olympian

Don’t Rock The Boat viewers were in stitches last night as Jack Fincham had a hilarious response to being told off by James Cracknell.

In the fourth episode of the ITV series, in which two teams of celebs have to row the length of Britain, Jack and his fellow blues had the former Olympian on their team.

Why was James Cracknell on Don’t Rock The Boat?

They won his help after a victory in one of the land challenges, and with a sizable gap between their rowing time and that of the red team, they knew they needed it.

Jack, as viewers will have seen in previous episodes, struggles to concentrate on the rowing.

And in last night’s (Thursday, November 6) episode, the Love Island winner was overjoyed to see seals swimming near their boat.

However, James told him off and ordered him to keep rowing. Jack soon got to switch out and lie down in the cabin for a rest – where he cheekily had a go at the Olympian behind his back.

Literally PMSL when he said about chucking James overboard. So funny, just love him.

Jack fumed, quietly enough so that James wouldn’t hear: “Who took the jam out of your doughnut, James?

“He’s lucky I didn’t chuck him overboard.”
