Matt Hancock told he runs like an 'ostrich'

Former Health Secretary Matt Hancock is one of several contestants to take part in the limit-testing Channel 4 show Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins. 

In the first episode of tonight’s series, Matt joined celebrities like Michelle Heaton and Gareth Gates as they took part in their first trial. 

The celebrities were asked to make their way across some terrifyingly high wires and, while some stars stuck the landing, Matt was left hanging after a spectacular fall. 

However, just as the show began, viewers were left in stitches as Channel 4’s voiceover introducing the show made a savage dig at the former MP.

At the opening of the programme, this voiceover could be heard saying: “16 recruits in an inhospitable landscape next tonight, as the country’s favourite stars and Matt Hancock all take part in Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.”

However, some people still weren’t happy that Matt was there at all, complaining that his presence had ruined the show for them. 

Anna complained: “Actually I’m fed up with people giving Matt Hancock a platform and a chance to try and BS his way out of the disgusting choices he made. He needs to just crawl under a rock and stay there.” (sic) 

Kelli fumed: “Not enough for  #saswhodareswins to be drilling Matt Murderer Hancock. He’s earning huge money for being there. He needs absolutely cutting off from any means of income.” (sic) 

While another user said: “Ffs @channel4 Matt Hancock is not a celebrity. He’s a disgraced politician who should be under investigation.” (sic) 

One user wrote: “As funny as it is to watch hancock make a c*** of himself he shouldn’t be on reality shows.” (sic)
