His husband hinted that he will clash with new arrival Noel Edmonds as he rang into spin-off Extra Camp on Wednesday night.

And that prediction seemed to be coming true for John Barrowman as he endured an awkward encounter with the presenting legend on Thursday's episode of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!

The former Deal or No Deal host, 69, invoked the ire of actor John, 51, on his first day in the camp, as the 'emperor' accused him of scratching his groin as he delegated campmates duties. 

Noel had already ruffled feathers with his late arrival into the camp, with the star appointed Emperor and setting his fellow campmates to work in a Roman gladiators inspired challenge.       

After John stood up to ask Noel a question, the star asked John not to scratch his groin when he spoke to him.

An incensed John said he wasn't scratching his groin and was not impressed with the comment.

Talking later in the Bush Telegraph, John let rip at Noel, after his sensational late arrival into the jungle.

He said: 'I know he was trying to make a joke and be funny but it didn't land well with me and for that moment I'm probably being overly sensitive and it's at this exact time that my husband would say I need a sandwich. 

'It's not his fault and I'm an adult, I know that, it was just that moment and some of us are feeling 'arhhh'.'  

This comes after John's husband Scott Gill hinted that the person most likely to rile up John will be the ex Noel's House Party host.

Scott - who married John in 2013 after 20 years together - spoke to hosts Joel Dommett and Scarlett Moffatt about the Doctor Who star's time in camp so far, saying he's surprised how well he's taken to the camping side of things.

But the British architect then hinted that John will butt heads with Noel after he arrives in jungle, especially as the veteran presenter will expected to stir up the drama.

Asked whether there's anyone in camp that will irritate John, he said: 'Not yet. I think there may soon be.

'I don't know but I think he's really liking the balance of people in there, they're all meshing really well. When you throw something new into the mix it's always gonna stir, I don't know how he's gonna react to that.'

Scott added: 'Noel's a big character, so there is the possibility they're gonna clash which makes for great telly! Sit back and see what happens.'

Fans will see Noel's dramatic arrival in the jungle on Thursday night, as he takes on the role of jungle emperor, pitting the other ten celebrities against each other as gladiators.

The 69-year-old legendary entertainer was confirmed as this year's late arrival on Tuesday, with bosses reportedly offering a £600,000 salary to sign him. 

It comes as 2017 jungle champion Georgia Toffolo was on Thursday's This Morning to provide all the latest jungle gossip.

The ex-Made In Chelsea star showed off her quirky sense of style in a silky cream ruffled blouse and gold snake necklace, teamed with skinny blue jeans and jeweled slippers.

With her blonde hair in effortless curls, Georgia showed off her pretty complexion in au naturelle makeup as she gave hosts Phillip Schofield and Rochelle Humes the I'm A Celebrity news.
