Whether it's intentional or not, a lot of things about this series of I'm A Celebrity are funny (and/ or concerning). But the moment that tops our list is Sam Thompson hitting boxer Tony Bellew on the forehead to protect him from a mosquito. Whilst discussing an answer during the Deals On Wheels challenge, Sam stops in his tracks and smacks Tony, proclaiming, 'Oh, mosquito. Swear on my life.' As the sportsman stares at him in disbelief, Sam jokes, 'That was dangerous, could've been punched then.' Tony then proceeds to take a very long exhale, leading fans to call their exchange 'arguably the best 10 seconds of TV in 2023.'

Watch the moment here:

Elsewhere, Former UKIP leader Nigel Farage is being given £1.5million to revamp his reputation. Jamie-Lynn Spears was sleeping in a hammock next to Tony from Hollyoaks, and Made in Chelsea's Sam has been dubbed a 'golden retriever' for being wildly enthusiastic about just about everything.

The ITV reality competition started on Sunday 19 November and, one week in, we're yet to see any of the twelve celebrities leave the jungle. Now that the grand final has been confirmed to take place on Sunday December 10, we don't have long left to soak in all the madness.

And although we get to watch celebrities make fools of themselves and eat mealworms and kangaroo anus on the show, sometimes it's better served with a bit of analysis on the side. And for that, we always have the internet to turn to. This year, there are more than a few good I'm A Celeb memes floating around the ether and we've been kind enough to pull them together for you – so tuck in. You're welcome!
