Speaking to Closer, Jonsson said that she wouldn't take part in the jungle show.

The presenter said: "I know 'I'm A Celebrity...' pays well. And it's been known to enhance even the most paralysed of careers - ie Myleene Klass - but I don't like the thought of being stuck in the same rainforest as Robert Kilroy-Snake."

Must Watch TV

  • RTÉ Two - The Thick of It

    11.25pm

    11.25pm, RTÉ Two

    With a script that makes Yes Minister sound like Wanderly Wagon and a villain that makes House of Cards' scheming politician look like a pussycat, Armando Ianucci's scary satire, The Thick of It (also made into a movie) is one the funniest shows on TV. Tonight the General Election is imminent, as is, at least according to the word in the corridors of power, the political demise of Malcolm (a spitting, foul-mouthed tour de force from Peter Capaldi). Don't bet on it, though.

  • BBC One - 10 Things you Need to Know about Sleep

    10.35pm

    10.35pm, BBC One

    Presenter Kate Silverton investigates the science behind sleep as she conducts a series of experiments to help insomniacs grab some shuteye, find a cure for jet-lag and discover a solution to snoring. A chef (Aldo Zilli) looks at how food affects sleeping patterns and record-breaking round-the-world yachtswoman Dee Caffari gives some tips on catnaps.

  • TG4 - The Wire

    10pm

    10pm, TG4

    We're down to the wire (hah!) with the very final episode of one of the very best TV shows from the past decade. It's a repeat but David Simon's labyrinthine tale of a crime riddled Baltimore - a bleeding patchwork of police, gangsters, politicians and journalists - is a classic of modern noir. Tonight, in an episode simply titled 30, the wake for yet another fallen police officer sets up a shaky future for the city.

  • C4 - Cha'Mone!

    11.10pm

    11.10pm, C4

    A man in a rubber mask (Leigh Francis) gives us his spitting image version of Michael Jackson's life, as related by other luminaries. Is he serious? Is this even funny? If you thought that Francis's limply written Bo'Selecta sketches were redeemed by those ludicrous masks and makeovers, then you might just fancy this reheated hash with cameo 'appearances' from Craig David, Mel B, Uri Geller and Kanye West.

  • RTÉ Two - CSI

    9pm

    9pm, RTÉ Two

    The CSI crew arrive at the aftermath of a gunfight in a gun store (oops!). There are two murder victims - a woman with a gun in her hand and another John Doe, also nose down on the concrete. There is one survivor and a suspicious set of bloody handprints. CSI is a Larry Fishburne vehicle now, but really, it's just like Miss Marple but with lots more ketchup. You'd expect that from a show in which one of the supervising producers is called Rambo.
