Kangaroo Court Day 2!

Yesterday saw two more camp mates entering Jungle Jail, but who would it be?

The task set by Judge Hopper was to compete a puzzle while standing in the dock. Sounds easy yes? Wrong!

Firstly the puzzle was the wrong way round and secondly the longer the celebrities took the more bugs and jungle critters would join them in the docks.

This was obviously too much for Bug-phobic Gillian Mckeith who decided to sit on the egde of the dock which resulted in her being disqualified.Shaun Ryder was the last Celebrity to go to Jungle jail after he gave in to the puzzle setting the other Celebrities free.

But it was only a matter of time before cellmates Shaun and Gillian came to blows in the Jungle Jail.

And in the end it only took Shaun lighting up a cigarette for Gillian to blow a gasket.

“You can’t smoke in here, it will kill us,” exclaimed Gillian, huddling back against the bars.

“You f****** what? I’ll smoke where I want, you can go in the f****** toilet,” responded Shaun, who clearly really needed a fag.

“I smoke where I want, don’t tell me where I can’t smoke,” he added.

Undeterred, Gillian revealed that her father had died from a smoking-related illness. But that didn’t make the slightest difference to Shaun.

“Well, so have half of my family,” he replied with playground-like defiance.

Gillian immediately stormed off to the Bush Telegraph to tell someone who really cared how she felt about smoking.

But when she returned to jail, Shaun apologised, saying: “I do apologise for the language, I’m very sorry.”

There’s no smoke without fire, eh Shaun?

Nigel Havers leaves the Jungle!

Yes folks, it's true...

Nigel Havers has called time of his jungle adventure and walked out of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

It's been an action-packed 24 hours in camp - but what finally pushed Nigel over the edge?

Gillian Collapses Live on Air!

The nation was gripped last night as Gillian Mckeith collapsed live on air after being told that she'd been voted to undergo the Live Trial.

And as Bob rushed to her side once again with the oxygen, we watched, mouths agape, wondering what on earth would happen next.

As if we weren’t teetering on the edges of our sofas already! Nigel had just been coaxed out of the Bush after refusing to receive an electric shock in Kangaroo Court, and so by the time the Live Trial crept up on us, the tension was almost too much to bear.

And as Ant and Dec delivered the vote results and she stepped out into the clearing, it seemed that it all had all become too much for Gillian.

By the time we came back from the ad break however, Medic Bob had confirmed that Gillian was ok, and the Live Trial continued...

But who would take on The Unfairground?


Cue Linford – who with the second highest vote. And man, was he up for it!

Like a coiled spring he leapt around the challenges – nailing Strike It Unlucky and the Terrifying Tombola as if they were just walks in the park, and bringing home all but one star for his ecstatic campmates.

As Ant and Dec looked on in amazement and Linford's fellow celebs in the stands hollered and whooped - one question remained on everyone's lips...

What on EARTH is in store for us in the next show?

What will we find when we next zoom into camp?

There’s only one way to find out people…

As Gillian was unable to take part in the Live Bushtucker Trial, Linford, who had the second highest vote, stepped in to do the Trial instead. If you voted for Gillian you can get a full refund.

Gillian's Salty Secret

There’s something fishy going on in camp – and for once it’s got nothing to do with a offal-filled Bushtucker Trial.

Gillian’s often complimented on how good her dinners taste and we think we might have discovered why.

The panicy poo-botherer has smuggled some salt in to camp and has been discreetly adding it to the campers’ meals.

While Ms McKeith claims her cooking success is down to soaking the beans in water for the right amount of time – we know her salty secret.

And I’m sure it won’t go unnoticed by show bosses, either!

The TV presenter was caught on camera mouthing “I’ve added salt” to Dom.

Hmmm… this sounds like exactly the sort of behaviour that could land Gillian in Kangaroo Court.

All Rise! Kangaroo Court is in Session!


Kangaroo Court is officially in session – but which celebs will be doing time in the Jungle Jail?


There will be three Kangaroo Court sessions in which the stars compete in various tasks. Each day, the two losing celebrities will have to go to the newly-set up Jungle Jail.


So by the end of the three days, six will be incarcerated in the jungle – while the remaining seven celebs will get to walk free.


One final chance for release will the be given to the six locked-up stars. The five remaining celebrities will face the first public vote, with immunity granted to the other seven.


In the first session, the celebs’ reactions were tested as they hammered their gavels every time they spotted a baby kangaroo leaping in front of the dock.


Those with the slowest reaction times received a nasty electric shock as they took one step closer to being thrown in the jungle slammer.


In the end, Lembit and Sheryl were carted off to face their first night in prison. But who will join them?

Gillian becomes the first Celebrity ever to forfeit a Bush Tucker Trial!


Sniffling Gillian couldn’t face the other celebs after walking away from the Dreaded Digger Trial.


The TV host spent hours in the Bush Telegraph, delaying her return to camp.


“I was thinking I’ll come in here and stay in here all day, all night, go back at 10 o’clock and then kind of sneak in and nobody will notice I’m there,” she revealed.


But eventually Sheryl found Gillian loitering around the dunny and persuaded her to face her fears.


Comforted by Sheryl, she explained, “What happened was I got there, there was this digger that I had to try to operate and I just couldn’t do it.”


“You couldn’t operate the digger?” enquired Sheryl.


“I didn’t even start the Trial because I couldn’t operate the digger,” replied Gillian. “You have to be able to operate the digger to be able to start the Trial. Meanwhile 13 people don’t get any food.”


Yes, Gillian – it’s true that 13 people will be without food. However, it’s not entirely accurate to say the Trial was failed because she couldn’t work the digger.


I wonder what the campers will think when they find out the truth?

Trigger Happy TV in America

COMEDIAN Dom Joly is to bring back cult show Trigger Happy TV - as a MOVIE.

Dom, 42, who began his I'm A Celebrity stint this week, told TV Biz: "I start filming in America shortly after I get out of the jungle."

But he said he wasn't going on the ITV show to boost his profile - as a big-money Hollywood deal was already in place.

Trigger Happy TV featured stunts such as Dom yelling into a giant mobile on a train. He ended the Channel 4 show after two years, saying he'd become too well-known to dupe the public.

Linford is 'Court' out in the Jungle!

OLYMPIC ace Linford Christie should have been in court facing a dangerous driving charge yesterday - but was in the I'm A Celebrity jungle.

Christie, 50, was summoned to appear before Wycombe JPs, Bucks, after allegedly crashing his Audi A8 into a taxi on a country lane in May.

The gold medal sprinter, the cabbie and two of his passengers were all injured.

But Christie had proceedings adjourned until next month after his solicitor said he was on a "prearranged business trip".

Kayla's Pray-Boy Career!

PLAYBOY bunny Kayla Collins told campmates how she turned to glamour modelling to rebel against her strict Christian upbringing.

The model, 23, said she posed for Playboy after moving away from her religious parents.

Linford Christie said he'd never let his daughter do that.

But a source said: "It's ironic. He's spent the rest of the time ogling her."

Wicked Whispers

Newcomers Dom and Jenny have been passing their judgement on each of their fellow campmates.

Perched on the bench, Dom commented that Shaun doesn’t do much talking. “He’s such a nice bloke though,” he added.

Jenny agreed, adding “I don’t think he likes the tittle-tattle. I think he’d like to talk about something he’s interested in.”

Of course, it wasn’t long before they came to the seemingly omnipresent Gillian. “I’m sorry I don’t have any sympathy for Doctor at all,” said Dom. “For a woman whose job it is to look through people’s t**** and telling them whether they’re healthy or unhealthy, you’d think she’d look a bit healthier.”

Ouch!

They describe Kayla as “a sweet girl”. Jenny said that she hadn’t spoken to her much in case she thought she was "a lesbian on heat sniffing around".

Jenny continued: “The real beauty is Sheryl I think. I’d never have thought. In the flesh she’s glorious.” She added: “I like Nigel. I think he’s wonderful.”

Ohh, you wait love. You just wait...

Will Shaun Leave?

I'm amazed to see how relaxed former Happy Mondays hedonist Shaun was when he first entered camp. But now it seems the worm may have turned…

He’s probably had a few epic comedowns in his time – and the singer was not in fine fettle in camp.

“It’s Friday tomorrow, so I might bail,” he told camp. “It’s not like taking the money and running is it? I’ve done a full week.”
Linford revealed he’d miss Shaun and Stacey consoled the big man, saying, “Each to his own if you want to go. But I think you’d be happy if you stayed.”

But it didn’t seem to wash. “It’s doing my nut in,” he said. “If I do two weeks, they’ll have to take my shoelaces off me. I accomplished what I had to do by coming in here so I’m not really bothered. I’ve got nothing to lose by going out.”

However, by sunset the Madchester scenester appeared to rally a bit and was soon chatting happily with the other celebs. What a difference a day makes, eh folks?

Alison Hammond becomes the 13th camper in the Jungle!

This Morning presenter Alison Hammond is about to become the 13th celebrity to join the jungle camp.

She’ll give two of the celebrities a shock as they discover her as part of a Celebrity Chest challenge.

The larger-than-life TV star is hoping to lose a stone when she goes into the jungle.
“It’s not the best way to lose weight, but it would be great to lose a stone,” reveals Alison. “I’ve been on a diet for the last six weeks and I have already lost a stone and a half, so if I can lose some more pounds, that will be fantastic. I can’t wait to be smaller and I really hope I will then be able to keep the weight off!”

The bubbly presenter first shot to fame in 2002 after she appeared on Big Brother – but the nation will know her best for her lively appearances with Phil and Holly on ‘this morning’.

She admits she’s not at her best while being deprived off food – so let’s hope the rest of the gang win plenty of stars in the Bushtucker Trials!

Men Vs Women! Round One... Ding Ding!

There was a rumble in the jungle yesterday as the normally upbeat, co-operative camp turned into a hotbed of fierce discussion.

Fuelled by Linford’s comment that we live in a “man’s world”, it was Stacey who flew to the side of womenkind.

“Women cannot expect to do what men do,” said Linford. “There are certain things that men do that women should not do. Women are supposed to be more decent than men.”

Stacey was clearly not enamoured with Linford’s dated outlook on gender issues.

“I don’t believe that men dominate and you get more rights than me,” she replied. “I choose to believe I rule my own world.”

But Linford wasn’t sold. “No, you don’t. Men rule the world,” he levelled. “It’s your life but men rule the world.”

Oh dear, where’s Germaine Greer when you need her? She’d settle this debate before Linford and his outdated views could sprint back to the 1950s…

Two new Campmates enter the Jungle!

Comedy duo Dom Joly and Jenny Eclair have joined the jungle camp!

The two stars were flown in by helicopter before canoeing to a remote jungle clearing.

As part of a chilling challenge, the two jumpy celebs had to spend three hours in a spooky shack. For each half hour they spent, they would receive a box. Each box contained a star but also other jungle critters that jumped out to join them.

And with each star earning them a meal for camp, Dom and Jenny had to hold their nerve or face meeting their new jungle co-habitants empty handed.

Jenny and Dom both claim to have come to Oz with the sole aim of losing some weight, with Ms Éclair claiming she’s “going to come out looking like Elle McPherson”.

Former journalist Dom is looking forward to sinking his teeth in to any politicians who may be lurking in the jungle, so watch out Lembit!

Gillians Insect Emergency

Each year the celebs face a barrage of beasties as they camp out in the thick of the jungle.

Bites, bumps and ravenous leeches are a constant source of aggravation for the stars – but I fear any previous moans will prove insignificant compared to what viewers are about to be subjected to. Why? Because GILLIAN’S GOT A TICK!

Yes, a tick! The most bug-phobic woman this side of Sydney now has a blood-sucking parasite growing on the nape of her neck.

Medic Bob rushed in to camp to help the poor dear remove her hideous hitchhiker.

For those of you unfamiliar with ticks, they’re nasty little blighters you normally find attached to your dog or cat. But in the jungle, where all bugs seem to be ten times the size of their European counterparts, you have to carefully extract the arachnid’s fangs using what Bob describes as a “tick corkscrew”.

Yes, it’s painful. And yes, one glimpse of the corkscrew and Gillian will probably keel over again. Still, she’ll be dining out on this for weeks (not literally, of course). I bet the campers can’t wait!

Nasty Nigel!

Someone call a teacher – there’s a bully in camp!

Testy Nigel has been ribbing Lembit at every possible opportunity to the extent that we can’t help feeling a bit sorry for the beleaguered former MP.

In fact, the celebs are all starting to tread carefully around noddy-know-all Nigel – and we don’t blame them.

Poor Lembit was blasted for chipping away at a stick with the camp’s communal knife.

“I don’t know what you are doing with the stick but you’re going to blunt the knife,” boomed Nigel. “You’ll blunt the s*** out of it. The knife is the only knife we’ve got and you’re never going to get the blade as good as it is.”

Sheepish Lembit stopped what he was doing and returned the knife but amused Linford laughed, “You’ve been told off left, right and centre.”

Nigel then disappeared off to the Bush Telegraph for a further moan. “There has been non-stop chat, never a pause ever,” he ranted. “I’m 59 years old and I don’t want to waste it sitting around talking absolute b*******.”

“I’m beginning to tell Lembit to shut up and Linford I’ll get round to!” he added.

Oo-er! Wonder how much longer the celebs will put up with Nigel behaving like a school prefect? Will Lembit fight back? Watch this space.

Gillian McKeith branded a Faker!

JUNGLE wimp Gillian McKeith has been accused of being an I'm A Celebrity fake.

The nutritionist, who was seen to faint on this week’s episode, has repeatedly said she suffers from a phobia of insects and a fear of heights.

But fans of the show have suggested she's faking, and even I'm A Celebrity hosts Ant and Dec thinks she's playing up to the cameras.

Joe Swash, who co-hosts ITV2 spin-off I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here Now, said the You Are What You Eat star should be booted out of the jungle.

Gillian, 51, had to be given oxygen by medics after fainting while locked in a pitch-black crate for last night's Bushtucker Trial.


Despite apparently being unconscious footage seems to show the nutritionist still being able to pull her t-shirt over her stomach.

Dec said: "There was a lot of medical attention needed at one point and she was very scared. She is genuinely, genuinely very scared of everything that is down there.

"However, I think she made the most of it."

And ex-EastEnder Joe, who won the reality TV show's 2008 series, called on viewers not to fall for McKeith's tactics.

He said: "I think she's a little bit more calculated than everyone is thinking."

"I can't believe people aren't seeing this and are falling for it. She didn't faint. She is faking it. Everyone knows what goes on in this show. Did her agent not tell her?

"Did she think she was going to be in a hotel at night time? Seriously, just send her home."

And viewers agreed with Joe's opinions that the diet expert was faking it to try and raise her TV profile.

Rachybates wrote on Twitter: "How fake was Gillian last night? Bloody drama queen."

And KatieMarie28482 added: "Gillian knew what she was signing up for. All fake if you ask me... Why sign up if you are that scared of bugs?"

Last night's episode saw Gillian being voted by the public to take part in the next Bushtucker Trail, which will air in tonight's show.
