The TV presenter returns to take on the jungle for I’m a Celebrity… South Africa. <\/p>
Carol Vorderman has said that while she enjoyed her first outing on I\u2019m a Celebrity back in 2016, the iconic presenter actually lied about her phobias \u2013 but is rethinking that game plan this time around.<\/p>\n
Speaking to ITV about the upcoming All Stars version<\/a> of the show which is set to be released next week, Vorderman revealed that she isn\u2019t going to have a game plan before she arrives in South Africa.<\/p>\n She said: \u201cLast time I did I\u2019m a Celebrity, I tried to double bluff everyone. I told them I was frightened of things I wasn\u2019t really, like heights! It did sort of semi work.\u201d<\/p>\n She added: \u201cAfterwards I told them the story as I thought I would never be going again and I admitted what I was really frightened of so now they all know!<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s just important to enjoy it and have fun. We\u2019ve still got a WhatsApp group from our time on I\u2019m a Celebrity in 2016!\u201d<\/p> In her original season of the hit entertainment show, Vorderman appeared alongside actor Larry Lamb, presenter Joel Dommett, Diversity\u2019s Jordan Banjo and series winner Scarlett Moffatt.<\/p>\n This time around, Vorderman will take on the plains of South Africa along with other returning familiar faces<\/a>, plus added extras that the audience will only learn of when watching.<\/p>\n Speaking about what she likes the most about the series, Vorderman stated: \u201cI love it when people get the giggles. I like it when they are cheeky or bend the rules instead of being nicey nice! I loved it when Amir Khan ate all the strawberries! I love people being mischievous.\u201d<\/p>\n Although she\u2019s returning to the fun of the jungle, the brand new show will see campmates be pushed to their limits too, and be tested unlike ever before. According to the synopsis, \u201cthe challenges are bigger and tougher and the environment harsher and more unforgiving\u201d.<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n The new show has no public vote, so the campmates will be competing against each other in order to become the first ever \u2018I\u2019m a Celebrity Legend\u2019.<\/p>\n According to Vorderman, her first experience on I\u2019m a Celebrity changed her a lot.<\/p>\n She revealed:\u00a0\u201cIt made me realise that I was missing many things I loved and within a short space of time after leaving the camp, I bought a little house in West Wales. I love Wales and I love being out at night. I\u2019ve got a converted van and I live a bit of a hippie life! I go paddle boarding all the time now.<\/p>\n \u201cYou get to a point in life where you think everything is all a bonus. You can\u2019t say \u2018I will do that in 20 years\u2019 time\u2019. It made me realise that you need to live in the now. I want to say a big \u2018Thank you\u2019 to Ant & Dec when I see them in South Africa and I can\u2019t wait to take part in this new series. I loved everything about I\u2019m a Celebrity.\u201d<\/p>
