Ant and Dec have had their say on Jane Moore's feud with campmates Barry McGuigan and Danny Jones.
Loose Women star Jane complained after she was given washing up duties by new camp leaders Danny and Barry. She claimed the decision was ageist and sexist, but hosts Ant and Dec seemed to think she was overreacting.
The hosts reflected on the camp row after the show. Siding with Danny and Barry, Ant said: "I think she is being a bit unfair by saying it's sexist and ageist. I think they were just trying to do a good job in allocating fairly, if I'm honest."

Dec replied, reports the Mirror: "Yes, I agree. I feel for Barry, he was only trying to do his best." Ant added: "Poor little Barry."
Ant earlier said that it was "good to have a little bit of tetchiness" in camp. He added: "I am not surprised as it's always about the chores. It's always around the leader and who they give the chores to. It's either that or the cooking."
Jane, 62, was instructed to wash up along with Tulisa. Earlier Danny and Barry were seen working out which campmates got which job. Danny said: "Shall we talk chefs first, obviously me and Melvin can't do that,"
Barry then added: 'Wood duty needs to be somebody who's strong and has good stamina." Danny suggested Jane to di washing up, saying: "I think we have to put Jane on washing up but the only thing I want to say is have we gone a bit male heavy on the strenuous jobs?'.
But Barry replied: "I think that's a fair comment but I don't think they'd thank us after a few days." After they informed camp that Jane and Tulisa were washing-up, Jane swiped: "Oh what? Is that because we're women?"
Barry said that Jane might want a less physically demanding task since Jane was 62 and a year younger than him, but Jane said it was "so ageist and sexist." Oti Mabuse later said: "You could cut the tension with a knife."
Later, Jane complained to Danny: "Those were my last words as you walked past me, "please not cleaning", and you've given me cleaning." She added: "I'm not upset, I'm just saying it's women doing the washing up again.'
Barry and Danny were later spotted looking crestfallen. As well as Ant and Dec, Jane's comments have divided fans on social media, with many saying her attack was unjustified.
