Viewers saw the funny side as I’m A Celebrity camper Harry Redknapp claimed he used to be in the SAS.

The idea amused fans, who posted messages on social media saying how much they loved Redknapp’s humour.

“Harry, you’re just a star,” said one person on Twitter, while another posted: “HARRY HAS TO WIN! My Fav. The little SAS Seal.”

“Harry in “SAS”. Proper comedian,” tweeted one viewer.

“This guys Banter is spot on haha,” posted another.
