I'm A Celebrity: Carol Vorderman tearfully backs out of trial after 'buoyant' bottom fears

Carol Vorderman stepped away from a trial in tears after wondering whether her "buoyant" bum would scupper her chances of success on I'm A Celebrity... South Africa. The ex-Countdown whiz was left in floods of tears after taking on a difficult challenge with former Olympic javelin thrower Fatima Whitbread.

62-year-old Carol is one of several former I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! contestants to re-enter camp in the first ever "All Stars" spin-off series of the show, which was filmed in sunny South Africa in autumn 2022. In true I'm A Celebrity... fashion, the stars are being thrown challenging and gruesome tasks that have so far seen them eat animal genitalia and be covered in creepy crawlies as they battle it out to become the first ever I'm A Celebrity legends.

Last night's episode (May 2) saw Clifton resident Carol take part in the Tanks of Torment challenge alongside Fatima, 62, who she chose to be accompanied by after being selected to do the task. "Here we have the brains and the brawn," Fatima said about her pairing with Carol as they arrived at the site of the challenge and met with presenters Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly.
