I’m A Celeb viewers cringe as Amir Khan asks if a woman can be Prime Minister

Amir Khan is proving to be an entertaining watch on this year's I'm A Celeb.

His latest highlight came during Sunday evening's show, when it became clear that a few nights in the jungle had taken its toll on his knowledge of UK politics. Chatting with campmates about the appointment of Stanley Johnson as camp Prime Minister, Amir asked whether it would be possible for a woman to replace him in the role. When Stanley informed him that Toff, who had been appointed his deputy, would follow him as PM, Amir asked: "Has a woman ever become prime minister?" Judging by the reactions of some of his campmates, Amir soon realised he'd made a very obvious mistake and attempted to rectify it. "Oh, Margaret Thatcher!" he added. He wasn't wrong.

His comments prompted quite a reaction from viewers on social media... https://twitter.com/CathrynJ4/status/934898858198519808 https://twitter.com/lewismcdnld/status/934898614027079685 https://twitter.com/Aaron_Kelsey/status/934898562030325761 https://twitter.com/TheBendySlow/status/934898273231540225 https://twitter.com/lizzieblix/status/934898598768201731 https://twitter.com/TaaashG/status/934911479454879744 https://twitter.com/Vaish098/status/934910966378192896 https://twitter.com/Erm_Kully/status/934910205216870400
