Nigel Farage has made his reality TV debut on 'I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here' which started last night (Sunday November 19).

The former UKIP party leader is one of the ten initial campmates on the ITV show, and his appearance has stirred up some controversy.

For his first challenge before entering the jungle, Farage was confronted by a camper van filled with snakes, and he has been selected by the public (along with YouTuber Nella Rose) to take on the season's first bush trucker trial.

We asked people in Manchester for their thoughts on politicians taking part in reality TV and whether they think more people will be tuning in to watch this year.
