JM Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I've only heard of 4: Esther Rantzen (her pension pot must have taken a tumble), Robert Kilroy Silk (would do anything to get back on the TV), Martina Navratilova (her pension pot must have taken a tumble too) Brian Paddick (only because he was running for London Mayor!) All the rest - WHO??? CELEBRITIES??? (are these zzzzzzz listers?) I think I am just getting old, or maybe totally cynical about today's celebrity culture!

Cooks Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 blimey, they are s"Ooops, word censored!"ing the barrel this year aren't they?? that looks quite a boring bunch to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I've only heard of 4 - the same ones as JM! As long as Ant & Dec are there though, it's sure to be entertaining! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarbaraJ Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 lol well i can beat you, i have only heard of 3 of them thats why i don't watch it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 I had hoped that the Fairbrass boys from Right Said Fred would be on - they were supposed to be on last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurmurf Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Beam me up scotty! Sulu.... on Celeb?! He's a big star on Heroes at the moment (and he's just celebrated his civil partnership), why would he want to go in the jungle and eat bugs?

little chickadee Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I've only heard of the ones everyone else has I'm afraid, but I've never watched the program. Sounds like a pretty bizarre mix, but I think that's probably why they do it. I hope I never have to go and eat bugs when I'm a pensioner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 It does seem like a very strange mix of people. I too thought why would Martina do it? Surely she's not that hard up. I think Robert Kilroy Silk could get up a few peoples noses Most of them I haven't heard of though. I certainly hope they put more people in. Again I will say I hope not to get sucked into it but am bound to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenGirl Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Interesting selection - and I mean as in the variety rather than their personalities! I don't know some of them, maybe someone to be the favourite will be added, can't think who would be otherwise, Esther or Martina maybe? It makes me cringe watching the 'more mature' people in there, kinda feel sorry for them having to crawl around and eat bugs with no hiding from looking rough! Must be right JM, pensions must have been hit! I always say i won't get drawn in, but with x-factor being a bit rubbish this year probably will do anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susanbb Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Agree that it is a rather bizzare mix. Will be interesting to see how they get on and who they bring in as a "surprise" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Carly Zucker, Nicola McLean. Who and who? Exactly Carly Zucker is a WAG and engaged to Chelsea's Joe Cole. Not your typical WAG though - very althletic and she's an aerobic instructor/personal trainer so should do well in the challenges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickvic Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I love this programme but not for the celebrities, for the challenges. I always wonder what they'll think up next! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theherd123 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Simon Webbe - i used to work with his cousin and a fellow teacher had him in her history class when he was at school. He comes across as a lovely guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Why does George Takei need to be there? He has been in Heroes recently, so his career is still going strong for an old'un. DD remembers him from Malcolm in the Middle but never remembers who he is until I say "OOOHHH, Mushrooms" (you have to see the episode really), so she is very excited he is on the programme! I wonder if he will ask to be beamed up on Warp speed factor 5 instead of "Gemme out of here"???!! I think Ms Rantzen and Mr Kilroy-Silk will be at loggerheads - anyone else have ideas? Love Ant and Dec best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scramble Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I have no idea who any of them are! Love celeb tho, and Ant and Dec so it should be great! x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted November 15, 2008 Author Share Posted November 15, 2008 Uuuurrrggghhh Rumor has it that the shy & retiring Georgina Ballie may be going in as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
