RICHARD Osman has hit out at I'm A Celebrity after they included a challenge which closely resembled that of Richard's show – House of Games.
TV star Richard made the comment following the latest Deals on Wheels challenge on the ITV show.
In the episode, comedians Babatunde Aleshe and Seann Walsh took part in a game called Catch My Match whereby they had to correctly match a given fact about a celebrity to their photograph.
As part of their opportunity to win a treat for camp, Seann had to walk across planks placed in the air in order to get to the celebrities correct photograph.
The pair won the treat after completing the challenge in the allocated time but former Pointless host Richard was seemingly left with a rather sour taste in his mouth.
He tweeted: "Lovely #HouseOfGames tribute on #ImACeleb at the moment."

I’m A Celeb’s Owen Warner makes huge blunder during trial – did you spot it?
The star appeared to be being sarcastic as no reference to the BBC Two game show was made on the ITV juggernaut.
It appeared as though Richard was referring to the House of Games round My Perfect Match, which had loose similarities to that of the game played in the jungle.
In My Perfect Match, a pair of celebrities are given two characteristics or facts and they have to identify which celebrity is being referred to.
Fans of Richard were quick to reply and jump on his bandwagon claiming that they too noticed similarities in the simple guessing game.
