Carol Vorderman has spiced up her Instagram profile as she posted a video of her trying out different bikinis, filmed when she was in South Africa last year during filming for the upcoming I'm A Celebrity... South Africa. The former Countdown star is set to star in the hit ITV reality show's spin-off which starts on Monday (April 24).
Unlike the original format, the first I’m A Celebrity 'All Star' series will not feature a public vote. Instead, the celebrities will be competing against one another to be crowned the legend. Joining Carol in the pre-recorded series is boxing champion Amir Khan, dancer Jordan Banjo, former Coronation Street actress Helen Flanagan, Olympic athlete Fatima Whitbread, supermodel Janice Dickinson, former royal butler Paul Burrell, former England cricketer Phil Tufnell and the Happy Mondays' Shaun Ryder.
And before she returned to the jungle, and stuck in isolation, Carol made sure to carve out some time in her day to test out several eye-cathcing bikinis but did confess to feeling some 'dread'.

The 62-year-old showed off her sensational, gym-honed figure as she slipped into the different two-pieces - which ranged from a sultry leopard print design, to a chic white bandeau bikini before she was seen donning a dazzling Union Jack bikini adorned with shimmering sequins.
Alongside the video, which she shared with her Instagram followers, Carol wrote: "Bikini choices.. ugh. I dread the shower bits in camp, absolutely dread them but it’s hot and sweaty out there and you get filthy when you’re doing a trial....so time on my hands, used the next few days to choose some bikini things… and I’m glad I did… there were a few that were just a little too tight and a little tricky to get off!!! Jeez."
She then said in the clip as she soaked up the South African sun: "Trying on bikinis today. I'm going to use the thing they did in Sex and the City. Take or toss with I think bikini shorts for me." She added: "You know, that shower scene stuff. Blooming heck."
Helen was quick to respond to the post, writing: "So hot," while fellow TV star Davina McCall simply posted a string of hearts in the comments section. But fans were quick to flood Carol with praise and compliments. @dreamlittle1 said: "You look bloody great girl , keep doing what your doing. I’ve picked up my weights after watching you , you truly do inspire this 59yr old welshie living in Oz . Thank you."
