THIS is the moment when Celebrity Gladiators was thrown into chaos as a ‘fight’ broke out on set.
TV presenter Joel Dommett and comedian Rob beckett competed for the title of champion in the special instalment of the BBC gameshow.
Both stars had a strong showing in the competition as they fought past the hunks in the demanding physical challenges on Gladiators.
In the Powerball task, Joel, 39, had a slight edge on Rob, 39, as one ball landed in the centre basket, giving him an extra point.
This was despite the fact that one of the Gladiators physically picked up The Masked Singer presenter and placed him in the ball bin outside the area.
However the BBC One show was thrown into chaos when both the stars decided to play a prank.
As Barney Walsh, 27, was interviewing Bionic (Matty Campbell), both Joel and Rob rushed over to the athletes in a attempt to lift Steel (Zack George) above the ground.
They both wanted revenge as they appeared to tackle him and place him in one of the ball bins, just like what happened to Joel.
However, Apollo (Alex Gray) and Bionic came to the rescue of their colleague as they tried to jokingly wrestle with the competitors.
Bradley Walsh, 64, threw a red ball at the Gladiators in feigned anger as Barney exclaimed: “It’s all kicking off in here.”
Both the duo were no match for the ripped Gladiators as they were both overpowered by the men as they were squashed in the ball bin.
As Joel laughed his way through the segment, Steel looked into the camera as he proudly proclaimed: “We are too strong.”
