TV chef James Martin has been sent an apology by I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! after a blunder during Seann Walsh and Babatunde Aleshe’s Dingo Dollar challenge on Monday.

The pair were trying to win a treat for the rest of the camp, including the likes of Mike Tindall, Lioness Jill Scott and Boy George.

During the task, Babatunde and Seann had to try and match up celebrities with facts about them, including one about Saturday Morning’s James.

The clue read: ‘I want a match who is a TV presenter from Yorkshire and owns their own bakery.’

But, this only lead Seann to thinking of Paul Hollywood, as he asked Babatunde about The Great British Bake Off chef: ‘Is Paul Hollywood a Scouser?’

‘What about the guy with Saturday Kitchen? Where’s he from?’ he then yelled, but Babatunde still had no clue.

‘It’s a presenter. Paul Hollywood isn’t a presenter,’ the Celebrity Gogglebox star said.

Seann finally replied: ‘It’s James Thingamajig.’

He later told the camera: ‘I struggled with the matches, because I don’t know everyone’s name.’

Sharing the clip to Twitter, the official I’m A Celebrity account apologised to James, saying: ‘Sorry, @jamesmartinchef’.

But there appears to be no hard feelings, as the chef replied: ‘Haha no worries!!’

Elsewhere during last night’s episode, Jill admitted it’s more difficult for male football players to come out than female players, saying: ‘It’s not a safe environment.’

Jill said: ‘I think in the men’s game, it’s so difficult.

‘If you think about how much stick they get from the chants… it’s just not a safe environment where they feel safe enough to kind of do that. And that’s so sad.

‘But yeah in women’s football it’s just never an issue. Some have partners that are female, some are married to men, yeah…’

She added: ‘Then obviously there was no female role models for me to look up to… But I’d watch [David] Beckham do a trick or [Steven] Gerrard do something and I’d just be practising for hours.

‘I was literally in the back lanes just with my ball all day all night until my mum would shout, “Jill it’s time for your tea” and then I’d be back out again because I wanted to perfect this skill.’

Jill continued: ‘And now I’ll put on my own soccer camps and the girls have the female players on the back of their shirt.’

I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! continues tonight at 9pm on ITV.
