Thursday, November 22nd, 2018.
A special day. A day that, years – no, centuries – from now, humankind will look back on as the day that Harry Redknapp did The Floss in an Australian jungle….
The viral dance move has swept the planet in recent months, though is not typically performed by 70-something-year-old former Premier League football managers.
Until Harry, that is…
During the final moments of Thursday’s episode of I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, the former West Ham, Portsmouth and Tottenham Hotspur boss was taught how to Floss by former X Factor finalist Fleur East and Coronation Street’s Sair Khan. As it turned out, ‘Arry was an absolute natural. Sort of.
Here, if you haven’t yet seen it, look…
Yessss Harry! Go on 😂 #ImACeleb pic.twitter.com/puWJ76hBQH

Give him the crown already.
Earlier in the show, Noel Edmonds had made his first appearance of the series, assuming the role of ‘Emperor’ upon his arrival in the jungle. This didn’t, however, go down too well with many of those watching.
Redknapp, whose story telling has already made a strong impression on viewers in the early episodes of the new series, also revealed which footballer he’d want to have in the jungle with him prior to Thursday’s show. Surprisingly, Niko Kranjcar was overlooked.
