Yes.

But him just stood there completely ignoring/oblivious to the girl trying to rid herself of the bugs crawling all over her whilst he talked about himself was rather awkward.

Do you not think he was ignoring a little child who was having a 'me-me' moment?

Probably. But it still would have been the decent thing to do and help her out.

I watched some of the 1st episode where they walked out on those planks at the top of the building.....but they just dragged it out too much!? I had a look at the tv guide after ages, and found there was still another hour to go. fk that. It's fun to watch if it's short, button dragging it into 2 hour episodes for gods sake

Watch something else whilst recording it, then watch the recording and fast forward all the filler and adverts...

Yep it's like the X Factor, a good half is waffle.

We now record everything and watch it from the recording, fast forwarding through the ads, re-caps, what's happening after the ads etc, you can knock a third off easily.

Must admit, I quite like Dennis Wise already, thought he would be pretty horrid, as he was as a footballer, but seems like a nice guy so far. I think he'll be in the shake up at the end

He's in cracking shape.

To be fair, that was quite funny then watching Amir totally lose the plot

Yup he was proper ste !

Yes.

It was LOL funny when he grabbed the snake

They are really miking it with the ads, seems more ads than program.

[Leroy902]

'celebrity'!?

The only famous one out of the lot is Amir Khan. Not sure who fk the others are.

[TTmonkey]

"You-tube sensation" Jack Maynard has left the program?

[TTmonkey]

Sacked of the show for string of offensive, historic tweets that he made over several years.....

According to the papers...

Probably not a bad thing for the show as he seemed to lack any kind of personality. I didn't get the impression he'd add much value.

I would have thought that they would have researched contestants backgrounds beforehand to avoid that sort of thing.

I am watching it just for Boris dad!

He is going to be a legend with saying the wrong stuff at the wrong time.

The little blonde one "toff" seems to be developing a crush on Stanley. On the dingo dollar challenge she said "i've always had a thing for older politicians and nothings changed", somebody tell her he's not a politician

Some people are really hung up about the "celebrity" part eh?

On this show it doesn't really matter whether (you think) they're famous or not, they just have to be entertaining. I rarely know or care who the people going in are because it's usually a very funny show.

I love it too, somebody said on the radio when i'm a celebrity comes on the telly its like the start of christmas

surely amir khan does not need the money or do they get paid millions?

ON TDP today, Hamilton woman, whom was in series 1 (and got 12.5k) reckons they are easily on 100k.

Joey Barton confirmed on talksport monday that he turned down £500K to go in the jungle

I heard it was "when he was a teenager" but I don't know to what extent they have gone back.

Whilst what he has said was certainly not appropriate, in the context of him being a teenager at the time, is that particularly surprising? I said some pretty bad things as a teenager I am sure, but the only difference is they are not written down anywhere that can be accessed. But as a teenager, in this modern world, are you really aware that everythign you say online is there forever more? I don't think you are. Blurry lines...

Still, it'll all be fine soon I am sure because they've got new interesting people going in...

I had to search for who that was. I guess the perceived bigger names can write their own cheques. If he's being truthful.
Hamilton basically said as much, everyone has an individual contract.

Every year I say "what a lot of rubbish, D-list celebs ,etc", & every year I get sucked right back in.
Definitely record it then fast forward to the interesting bits - easily cuts it in half
Ant & Dec are a truly hilarious pair, always have been, and Ant has shown he is capable of taking it as well as giving it with the (scripted) banter about his rehab....Toff is turning into a hilarious star IMHO, & Mr Johnson is quite amusing too.
Loved Amir bottling it in that first challenge, but he appears to have taken some "man-up" pills now.

Bubble-gum TV - remove brain and enjoy whilst on the laptop/tablet reading news, PH, etc.....it was made for multi-tasking
