I'm a Celebrity... South Africa's Carol Vorderman confesses 'naughty' schooldays and swearing at nuns

Welsh TV presenter Carol Vorderman made her name for being a whizz at maths on Channel 4's Countdown, however has revealed she was not the perfect student at school. While on ITV1's I'm A Celebrity... South Africa Carol admitted she never did her homework, swore and sneaked off to nightclubs underage.

Chatting to fellow campmate Myleene Klass, Carol revealed her big confession that she was not well-behaved at school. She said: "Never did my homework. Seriously! Half an hour at the back of the bus. It was all too easy. I was always being told off. I told a nun to f*** off once. She was horrible. I was a naughty girl. I was in nightclubs in Manchester at 15 with the bad boys. Loved it.”

Despite her rebellious nature, Carol's done alright for herself. Aside of a successful career in TV, she also graduated from Cambridge University (with a third) in engineering, is a qualified pilot and has released educational books and has an online maths school, MathsFactor.
