'I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here' Camp Mate Lowdown



Soooo, its been a week since 'I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here!' started on ITV 1. The politeness has been broken as the celebrity camp mates have settled into their jungle home, personalities are showing (or not), egos are growing and its almost time for viewers to vote to save their favourite stars. Let's see how the line-up fares so far in good TV value.


Ashley Roberts : The former Pussycat Doll and only American has blended in quite nicely into camp. Male viewers will be satisfied seeing Ashley in a bikini but she needs to do a bushtucker trial or speak out a little more to get the votes.



Brian Conley : The comedian showed good form of character when the camps were divided. However, since camps united, Brian has shown form of stirring... Firstly when he erupted over David Haye's campfire antics, then again when he bitched to Rosemary Shrager, on “behalf” of his fellow celebs. No-one likes a bitch, especially a male one that isn't gay. I feel he has issues with being the alpha male in the group, feeling threatened by David and Eric Bristow, both strong   male characters within the camp.

Charlie Brooks : Eastenders “Superbitch” Janine Butcher is actually quite nice which is a good voting pointer for Charlie. Having done a joint trial, and gaining some stars, with Helen Flanagan, she's shown she has guts. Her friendship with Linda Robson has shown through. They give each other looks and nudges, mainly when the subject is Helen. I know it's not going to happen but she looks cute with David Haye too.

Colin Baker : The former Doctor Who star didn't show much potential at the start but has shown to be a good fatherly figure for the camp and has also provided a few comedy moments (his rapping task). The lack of meals has shown on the portly gentleman. Will he be voted to do any trials or will he blend quietly in the background to make it to the finals?


David Haye : I thought he'd be quite egoistic, being a boxer, but The Hayemaker has proved to be a worthy camp mate. He smashed his way through the first bushtucker trial so he can definitely bring the food in, should he get the chance. He hasn't shown any threatening arrogance and was quite respectful and apologetic when he unwittingly upset Brian. The female campers love him and the lady viewers have had their eye totty seeing his butt in the shower. Has potential to go far so long as he doesn't lose his cool.

Eric Bristow : The dartsman is actually more of a comedian in the camp than Brian Conley with his witty comments and snide remarks. His snide remarks could also land him in trouble in the camp and with viewers though if he oversteps the mark. A lot of talk has been about his moobs and lets face it, ol' Eric ain't afraid to get em out.


Helen Flanagan : Well!!! Helen has been the 'star' of this series and not all for the right reasons. She's been voted to face all the bushtucker trials and bar the last two, failed to bring in the bacon. Now she's 'manned' up and finally got some stars, viewers MAY stop voting for her so other camp mates can get a look in. I always say its hard for a soap star to go on reality TV if they are worse than their character and let's admit it, Coronation Street's Rosie Webster has got more balls and sense than Helen Flanagan.

Hugo Taylor : I've never watched 'Made In Chelsea' so I don't know much about reality star Hugo. The Posh boy did seem full of himself on arrival in the jungle and prone to hissy fits. His crying didn't do him any favours with the viewers but he did show a different, funnier side when he was starving. He likes an old rant about the cooking which is always good viewing. Hugo is a grower...how far will voters let him grow?

Limahl : The 80s pop star arrived late in the jungle and has shown he isn't afraid to voice his opinions when he snapped at Helen. Will he blow at someone else? He needs to if he's going to make an impact on viewers.




Linda Robson : The actress needs a trial to bring out her character. When the camps were divided, her bubbly mother role was set and she was confident. When they joined, Linda's role was overtaken by Nadine, now Rosemary's in the camp, Linda seems a little lost, although she has a good alley with Charlie.


Nadine Dorries : The absent politician isn't a favourite with viewers but proved her worth with the camel toe eating trial. She's very outspoken and likes to make her presence known at all times. I can't see her lasting long in the jungle. She hasn't got the likeability factor and she's a politician, of course.


Rosemary Shrager : The 'Ladette to Lady' cook bounced into camp with her strong matron-like manner and has taken over the cooking duties and no-one (except Hugo) has challenged her purely through fear. Rosemary has had some good comedy moments (the slide, dancing in the jungle arms) in her short time in camp but her sternness may upset her fellow camp mates in time.
