I'm A Celebrity's Carol Vorderman shares 'dread' as she makes bikini admission

Carol Vorderman shared her dread as she lifted the lid on her I'm A Celebrity preparations.

The former Countdown presenter took on the challenge of the South African jungle for the first All Stars edition of TV's toughest entertainment challenge. The series has already been filmed and is set to arrive on our screens on Monday.

The 62-year-old is keeping her fans on Instagram updated with teasers from her South African journey. She has taken to the social media platform today to post a clip from last September that reveals how she got her wardrobe ready for her stint in the jungle.

She said: "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."

Carol is one of nine confirmed stars who jetted off to South Africa for the new show. She will be joined by Helen Flanagan, Amir Khan, Jordan Banjo, Shaun Ryder, Fatima Whitbread, Janice Dickinson, Paul Burrell and Phil Tufnell.

Carol and Helen developed a close band in the camp as she told Lorraine Kelly: "Helen Flanagan, I have absolutely totally fallen in love with. She's my little meerkat."
