Our fave Geordie chappies have angered Australians with their comments on the locals in a boozer they’ve visited during down-time filming I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here.
35-year-old Dec was quoted in the local press as saying that, "We have to go to the pub in the afternoon in Australia because we are on TV in the middle of the night. So it's us and the gamblers and the people in vests, not people you want to drink with during the day. But they're our drinking buddies."
He’s right - no one wants to drink with people wearing vests.
However, his comments have certainly not gone down well with the locals.
24-year-old Greg Smith, reportedly interviewed The Kingscliff Beach Hotel bar, said: "Why are we not the sort of people they'd want to drink with? That's a ridiculous stereotype of an Aussie.
Smith went on to ridiculously stereotype the English: "Maybe if they got to know us they'd have a different view. We might look rough and tough but we are nice people. If they don't like it then they should stay in their room and drink English tea and eat scones."
