I'm A Celebrity - No More Live Trials!

Somebody alert the producers – live trials are boring! Last night’s episode was definitely the most uninteresting to date as we spent the first 20 minutes watching Katie scoop cockroaches out of her bra and the last half hour looking at her with runny gook on her face.

Despite running for an hour and a half we saw very little footage from camp which leaves me with a very large piece of paper with very little written on it. This may well be the shortest blog in I’m A Celebrity history.

So let’s start with an appeal – stop voting for Katie to do bushtucker trials. Apart from the unfairness of it – it’s boring to watch the same person each night. We have now clearly established that she is gutsy and will have a go at almost anything put in front of her but I am tired looking at her vast array of underwear (I am sure the male audience would not agree) and I fear for the future of her hair extensions!

In other jungle news last night we saw the arrival of Joe Bugner as a replacement for Camilla. He seems grand if a little obsessed with insects and the many ways they can do a person harm. I wonder if the producers drop a polite note into camp ahead of new arrivals telling them who they are just to avoid embarrassment. Personally I had never heard of Joe but then I, unlike Kim, am not a boxing fan.

Speaking of Kimberly, while she made a fair observation about Katie last night she didn’t half go on and on. You are not lecturing some cat-obsessed lady living in a grimy semi-d about the state of her bath enamel lovey! It was like water off a duck’s back in any case as Katie took it like Kim was giving her directions to the nearest tanning salon.

There was not much else of note last night apart from Stuart and Sabrina demonstrating that they can’t do sums and stuff, Gino outing himself as a Mis-teeq fan and Bob (he of the trials) confirming that he is an absolute gent.

Lets see Colin and Justin tackle a trial together - now that would be great TV!
