And this time Nigel Farage is diving into some sludge to get hold of some tokens.

There's lots of screaming from Josie (around some snakes), and Nella (dealing with the gunk).

Nadine Dorries has some advice for Nigel Farage

Nadine Dorries, the TalkTV presenter and former culture secretary, enteredI'm A Celebrity all the way back in 2012, long before Matt Hancock thought it was worth a go.

The ex-Mid Bedfordshire MP, who left her constituents unrepresented in parliament while competing on the gameshow, has taken to Twitter/X to give Farage some pearls of wisdom as the latest politician to appear on the programme.

"My advice to Nigel is what many would say to him: just be yourself," she said.

Farage: It’ll be nice to show people I’m not nasty

Ahead of theGB News presenter entering the jungle,Nigel Farage has shared what he hopes to get out of his time potentially eating animal genitalia and coming face-to-face with some creepy crawlies.

He told ITV: “I want to test myself. Business, politics, media, I’ve done so many different jobs and generally I have been reasonably successful. But I have never been tested in quite this way. It’s such a mental test and maybe I will discover who I really am.”

“Reasonably” doing a lot of heavy lifting after seven failed attempts to become an MP.

Farage continued: “I understood why Matt Hancock did it. He went in there with his reputation on the floor. The truth is after the banking issue I raised a few months ago, I was standing up for a million people who had lost their bank accounts, then winning at the TRIC awards, I am going in at a different stage of my career.”

The ex-Ukip leader also expects people will vote for him to take part in the Bushtucker trials “given millions hate me”.

“My crime was to stand against an establishment view and I was for many years the lone voice saying Europe wasn’t where we should be, so I have been a little bit demonised. I am hoping those who hate me might hate me a little bit less afterwards. But it’s a gamble.

“And the idea that somehow the things I represent - mean-spirited, small-minded, nasty, the ‘little Englander’ - all those accusations that have been flung at me over the years just aren’t true.

“If we can dispel some of those misconceptions, then that will be a good thing too.”

In other words, the man who appeared besidethe infamous ‘Breaking Point’ poster during the 2016 EU referendum campaign – one which saw some compare it to Nazi propaganda from the Second World War – says “it’ll be nice to show people I’m not nasty”.

Yeah… sure thing, Nige…

And if you’re considering voting him for a trial, he also revealed he’s dreading “anything to do with heights”

How have ITV and Farage responded to the controversy over his involvement?

Farage shared an endorsement from Ant and Dec last year, while ITV stressed the show has “always featured a diverse cast”.

Farage isn’t the first politician to enter the Australian jungle…

In recent years we’ve seen former culture secretaryNadine Dorries, ex-Scottish Labour leader Kezia Dugdale, former Lib Dem MP Lembit Öpik, ex-Tory Edwina Currie, Boris Johnson’s dadStanley and disgraced former health secretaryMatt Hancock all grace our screens from Australia.

Despite sparking outrage for breaking social distancing rules during the coronavirus pandemic, Hancock somehow managed to finish third in last year's series.

Nigel Farage has already escaped I’m A Celebrity’s Bushtucker trials…
