Marc Bannerman Evicted As Girlfriend Flies Home

Well nearly everyone got it wrong! Marc Bannerman was evicted from I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here last night. Lynne Franks and Katie Hopkins survive a little longer.

How come no one seemed to see Marc's eviction in advance? It even fooled the bookies and tabloids.

It must have been because of the fuss Sarah Matravers generated on seeing the latest of the Marc and Cerys Matthews love-in. Sarah has, after all, been with Marc for two years. She flew into Brisbane and then jetted back to London leaving Marc to it. He wants to go straight home and sort things out. Not sure his reception will be too good!

Is he now viewed as the bad guy in all of this? He did say, when talking about Cerys, "Nothing happened between us at all but it's really difficult not to crave a little bit of love." Strewth, he'd only been on the show for 12 days.

Otherwise it was all calm on the I'm A Celeb front. Oh, except for the bust up between Lynne, Janice Dickinson and John Burton Race of course. Please get Lynne out of the jungle - but voting will no doubt cause a few more surprises.

At last it's all getting a bit interesting.

Cerys Wants Marc To Dance Naked Before He Gets Into Her Bed

She's not happy! Marc Bannerman's wife Sarah Matravers, that is.

She said, "I want to march into the jungle, haul her out and say, 'He's mine, get off!' Cerys is a home wrecker."

It's all because Marc and Cerys Matthews flirting is getting hotter in the I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here camp.

Cerys told Marc, "If you can't sleep, right, come and tap me on the shoulder and you can get in my bed."

Marc answered, "So what will you do again? Run that by me again."

Cerys elaborated, "As long as you're naked, come up to my bed, tap on my shoulder, do a dance and then I'll get out. Get your clothes off, stretch, dance round the fire and say, 'I can't sleep on that hammock.' I'll go, 'All right handsome, do us a dance and I'll get in your hammock'. Then you get in my bed and go to sleep."

Marc confided in Jason, "Oh my god. Just makes my heart crumble. Oh..." And then he started to sing, "There may be trouble ahead, but while there's moonlight and music and love and romance."

"Really?" asked Jason.

"Yeah, mate," answered Marc.

So you can see why his wife Sarah might be a little miffed!

Celebrity Grumbles
Celebs including Cerys Matthews and Jason said they would sleep all day unless they got treats to perk them up.

A couple of hours later a box of vitamin drinks was brought into camp. An I'm A Celeb bloke admitted, "It’s not something we do all the time. We just don’t want footage of them lying around asleep. It would be dreadful TV."

John Immune
John Burton Race has won immunity from the first vote after staying in a Land Rover for six hours.

This was a Bush Battle where John, Jason, Gemma Atkinson, and Katie Hopkins had to see who could remain in the vehicle for longest to win the immunity. Katie remained for the second longest time but had to leave because of a call of nature.

I'm A Celebrity Gemma and Cerys Bikini Photos

There seems to be two topics of conversation about I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here. Firstly the bushtucker trial and secondly bikinis. The bikinis of Cerys Matthews and Gemma Atkinson, that is. Though to be fair we did have Anna Ryder Richardson trying to compete in her bikini - see yesterdays post.

The bikini shots are probably the most talked about as seeing Janice Dickinson's face contorting at the thought of eating various living creatures wasn't exactly attractive.

Janice Dickinson Bushtucker Face
Needless to say Janice didn't win the Bushtucker trial, that honour went to John Burton Race who munched on locusts, silkworms and a crocodile penis. This made Janice say, "My name may be Dickinson but I'm not going to eat a croc dick."

Going back to the bikinis Rodney Marsh went straight to the point, so to speak, with Cerys and said, "Can I ask a personal question? Are your t*ts real? They’re perfectly shaped?"

Cerys replied, "I’ve got my super-bra on. Deduce what you like."

Gossip Snippits
Here are some recent snippits overheard in the Jungle.

Janice says Rodney has great comedic timing.

Rodney tells Gemma she has a good head on her shoulders for someone so young.

Lynne reckons Marc reminds her of filmmaker Cassius Coleman.

And Gemma explained that she's not too keen on modelling, "Well I've just finished a British feature film and really enjoyed it. I just do modelling to fill in the dry patches. They always involve long days, getting hair and make up done - and I'm the complete opposite."

Gemma is turning out to be quite different to the image created by the tabloids.

I'm A Celebrity Countdown - 3 Days To Go

3 DAYS TO GO

We should know the full, official I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! some time to today. In the meantime contestants have been arriving in Brisbane, Australia. Some late negotiations are still taking place.

Gemma Atkinson arrived saying, "I'm looking forward to meeting some jungle hunks." She was followed by Jason "J" Brown who reckoned, "Gemma's got some great assets – I'm definitely going to throw myself at anything in there." He also went on to say, "As for Bushtucker Trials, I'm up for anything. I'll give it all a go. I'll have a nibble on a crocodile's nadger – just as long as it's not an elephant's!"

Others already in Brisbane include: Marc Bannerman and John Burton Race.

Anna Ryder Richardson and Katie Hopkins have left the UK and should therefore touch down in Aussie today.
