The team were out to celebrate Dynamite aka Emily Steele's 21st birthday and looked to be having a great time away from BBC's Gladiators.

Viper and Dynamite were joined by Bionic star Matty Campbell, Diamond's Liv Sheldon, Sheli McCoy aka Sabre and Fire star Montell Douglas.

Also in attendance were Electro, real name Jade Packer and Nitro star Harry Aikines Aryeetey.

It seems they were having such a good night that the Gladiators dropped their alter-egos completely, as fans commented on Viper's grin.

Another said: "Viper is smiling! I knew he could!"

And a third added: "Happy Viper, good to see."

Viper recently shocked fans by storming off set during the BBC One show.

He was left defeated and embarrassed after failing to win a challenge against a stand-in contender.

Host Bradley Walsh introduced contestant Wesley to viewers at the start of Saturday's show, with him successfully beating Viper.

After the humiliating defeat, Bradley told the superhuman: "Obviously Wesley has never done the wall before.

"Yet he managed to escape you, you had him then you let him slip through your hands bad day for you."

Viper was visibly shaking with rage and as Bradley placed his microphone to his mouth for a response, the hunk took a bite of it.

Seething with rage, he then storm off the show's set, leaving the Gladiators audience stunned.
