Matt has reportedly signed to be on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins, and given what celebrities go through on that show, it makes any Bushtucker trial look like a breeze! The show, which began airing in 2015, is notoriously difficult testing those who compete with a gruelling selection process similar to what those who apply to join the SAS go through.

The politician has reportedly signed for a series that is yet to air, but a spokesperson for Channel 4 told Metro earlier this month: “In the best traditions of the SAS, this mission is confidential. However, full details will be released when the series broadcasts next year.”
Matt would not be the first politician to take part in the show, as his former colleague Louise Mensch appeared in the first series and voluntarily withdrew.
The Bushtucker trials will have prepared Matt for the show
Matt has already caused some drama for his decision to take part in I’m a Celebrity, with the politician losing the Conservative Party whip for his appearance.
He has also been confronted by fellow castmates during his time in the jungle including Loose Women star Charlene White, A Place in the Sun presenter Scarlette Douglas and Culture Club singer Boy George, who has not minced his words when talking with the politician.

After being asked to wash some potatoes by camp leader Matt, Boy George said in a Bush Telegraph segment: “Matt was seen getting a little bit feisty earlier on when we were about to cook the meal.
“The bag came down and there were some potatoes and Matt started telling everyone he wanted them washed. I was like ‘oh, she’s loving this little bit of power’.”
