Ant asked Dec: “What’s it like being Cliff’s driver?”

Dec joked: “It’s a dream job – he rings in sick most days.”

Viewers found the joke funny and shared their thoughts on Twitter.

One person said: “Dec is Cliff’s driver,” followed by laughing face emojis.

Another wrote: “Dec enjoyed that joke a bit TOO much!”

A third added: “‘He rings in sick most day’ Dec that shade did not go unnoticed.”

Meanwhile, during the episode, there was a lot of drama in camp after James Haskell lashed out at Kate Garraway over the Dingo Dollar challenge question.

The question was: What percentage of adults think that a stiff upper lip is generally a good thing?

The answer was either 37% or 57%.

Kate first said: “37 per cent I reckon,” before James suggested they voted.

Kate then changed her mind and went with 57%.

James snapped: “Which one are you going for?” to which Kate replied: “James we’ve got nothing else to do, it’s okay.”

James cut in: “But we keep asking the same question. Put your hand up for A) 37% or B) 57%.”

The camp went with 37% and won ice pops.

Speaking to Andrew Maxwell, James said: “It’s a [expletive] circus of stupidity. I can’t do it, I’m too intelligent and too switched on… just put your hand up!”
