It was a bad night for the gays on the show. Paddick and recently married Star Trek legend George Takei, 71, were both voted in the bottom two. Takei consoled Paddick and gave him a kiss after the result was announced.

Brian said: "I thought George might have more support. I thought I'd pick up a few more votes for sleeping in the jungle jail."

Asked why he went on I'm A Celebrity in the first place, Brian said: "For a long time I've done serious stuff — 30 years in the police. So I thought why not do something trivial? I'm going to spend time with my wonderful partner but I won't go into details."

Paddick and Belsvick are planning a civil partnership.
