Vicky, 54, took the time to share with her Twitter followers that she had no plans to watch the popular show, Mirror UK reports.

She wrote: “Don't think I will watch I'm A Celeb this season, have a feeling it may become too toxic.”

When quizzed by a follower as to why, she added: “I don't like pack mentality. It's often cruel and unbearable to watch, so I will give it a miss.”

This comes after Sue shocked fans with her glam look entering the jungle, with many saying they couldn't believe the actress is 59-years-old.

Introducing herself, sporting a stunning blue jumpsuit with her hair coiffed to perfection, Sue said: “I've been on Corrie for nearly 23 years, it's a long time, I'm very old. I'm 59.

“I need to challenge myself to get out of my comfort zone, so this is my year of doing new things.”

Viewers couldn't get over how good the star looked, with many taking to Twitter to compliment the mum-of-one.

One gushed "I love Sue! Also HOW is she 59?! She looks amazing."

Another wrote: "Sue looks great for 59,” as a third shared: "Sue looks f**king amazing for 59."

The much-loved actress is one of Corrie's biggest stars, however ahead of her jungle stint Sue said her biggest fear is people preferring Eileen to her.

“This is the scariest part for me,” she explained. “I am a very private person and I am putting myself out there, which is what I am most nervous about.

“Viewers are going to see a different person to the person they think I am! I am very different. That can be worrying.

“They might decide they don’t like me as much as Eileen!”
