Trash TV at its best/worst. Gotta say I love it.

Seems a decent list of people on it this year, no old battle-axes so I'm guessing someone will be joining them.

Scarlett Moffett currently favourite to win,.

I'm looking forward to seeing how many challenges Wayne Bridge pulls out of due to injury....

Definitely some scope for Jungle shower scenes this year too...

I don't really watch this as it is a bot naff but I'm sure I'll catch some as I can accept it's also entertaining.

Anyway Ola Jordan, lovely. She seems like a bit of a bellend but the jungle shower will suit her well.

And Lisa Snowdon used to be rather nice 20 years ago so who knows...

I'm in.

Not a real fan of reality TV or "celeb" TV but I absolutely love I'm a Celeb, Ant & Dec absolutely make the programme, without them I don't think it would have been the success that it has been.

I want to see what Carole Vorderman looks like not all done up.

Same here. Wonder if she'll be brave enough for a bikini in the shower - I expect so...

It's not something I usually watch at all, but I must admit I'm also curious about that - I think she'll age several years.

Not really "celebs" though, are they?
I haven't heard of most of them, but maybe I'm just out of touch [sneaks off to buy OK magazine....]
I did meet Ms Vorderman last year in Bristol, and she is very good looking, although surprisingly petite in the flesh.
My Mrs loves this sort of "Council" TV which means I get to retreat to the garage in peace! Win Win biggrinbiggrinbiggrin

Couple of them I haven't heard of, but that's not unusual for this show.

The ;level of celeb is spot on really. Any higher profile and they wont 'need' to have a good show, would probably strop off or refuse to do stuff.

The level of celeb has to be carefully aimed at 'just desperate enough' to do anything......

Wayne Bridge will be OK providing he does not have to use his right foot.

Oh God yes. Thing about being a celeb is that its very easy to lead a life that requires constant high income. As soon as that income stream dries up, celebs risk the fate of becoming 'normos' again - people that have low incomes or maybe even have to do real work again.

Kerry Katona was a prime example - spends way more money than her celeb profile allows her to earn, always going bankrupt etc. Takes the 'easy money' on offer from celeb to keep the HMRC off her back, makes a few bob and blows it all on a fancy car for the next father of her next kid....

The other side of the coin is what happened to Mylene Class. Her career was in the toilet, went on Celeb and it hiked her profile right up, saved her career, and probably returned millions in extra earnings. Everyone is going to dream of having her result.

Here we go then.

Walking the plank off the top of a tower block. Nice.

And Ola's body. Nice.

Shame the plank didn't get much of a wobble on when it was her turn.

You know, if you just type her name into Google, and press images, or video, you will probably find a lot more of what you want a lot quicker than you would watching this program.

Just sayin' like. The internet is a wonderful thing for informing us wink

Like others, I don't watch any other reality TV stuff but I do enjoy a bit of I'm a sleb.
Ant and Dec do a good job of holding the programme together, certainly wouldn't be the same without them doing it.
