No Jimmy Pursey then? What a relief, I'll be able to watch it now!
The Official Line-Up: Your Thoughts?
2 of 5
George Takei is in it?! Awesome.
The rest are very very dull, apart from Kilroy who's sure to be an arsehole of a character.

Just googled them all, tbh they don't strike me as the most exciting bunch, but I'll give them chance 
I think we'll have
*Kilroy as the irritating one
*Simon as the quiet one
*Joe as one of "the lads"
*Carly, Nicola & Dani as "eye-candy"
*Esther as the more "out-there" person
*George as the quiet but intellectual one
*Martina I don't even know why she's going in
and *Brian I still don't know who he is lol

I like the ones I know.
Then the 2 WAGS
everyone else seems decent..only 10 of em though..and most of them over 100

Erm, am I missing something here? "Brian Paddick"...an ex-police officer, since when was a police officer a form of celebrity? I'm kind of shocked....could they not get anyone better than that? Seriously?

Martina Navratilova: Why? Why!? She is above this...
Joe Swash: My tip for the final. Should be standard fare.
Simon Webbe: Winner? Will probaly do little of any importance...
Nicola McLean: Never heard of her...
George Takei: My early fav. He could be very entertaining.
Dani Behr: Bland but pleasant.
What do you all think?”

I've only heard of the four I've bolded
I don't actually know what Dani Behr does; I've just heard her name once or twice in the past. Aww I wish I knew more of them!! It's so much more interesting when you actually know who the people are!

I agree. I mean, they have Dollar on stand-by, why use Paddick over Dollar ? Both are bad, but PADDICK ??? What I also don't get is there must be MANY celebs willing to do it that we have heard of. Timmy Mallet ? Krankies ? Niki Sanderson ? At least I have heard of them. I admit they have some good names, like Esther, Kilroy, Martina, Joe. But the rest ?

Oooh, a standby list?
Who else is on it?
I can't wait to hear Carly and Nicola say "i'm a celebrity get me out of here" on a trial, what a joke that will be.
Re PINKSTER, not sure who else is on the stand-by, that is the only other name I have heard.

I'm sure there's a couple more hidden away to make the annual shock entry (but not before a live bushtucker trial!).
Bit of a meh line-up really.
No googling !
Esther Rantzen: I think she'll be a santimonious pain in the arse, just like she always is..........
Carly Zucker: never heard of
Brian Paddick: He's the gay Policeman who stood for the Lib Dems as London Mayor ?.........well, I'm pretty sure that's him. Erm, well..........he didn't come over as having much of a personality but then he was up against a couple of giants.......maybe he'll shine in lesser company ?
Kilroy: Unpopular right wing 'populist' - hopefully will set the cause back for many years.
Martina Navratilova: I reckon she'll be game.....I expect she's got a wicked sense of humour...could be a surprise hit
Joe Swash: Never heard of.
Simon Webbe: never heard of
Nicola McLean: Never heard of
George Takei: from Star trek ?.........blimey, he's ancient.......
.
Dani Behr: not sure I know her, name rings a bell
That's 10 people..........is that what they normally have ?........or does this not include the ones who go in later.............

Ah, okay
I wonder how the casting directors cast IAC? There always seems to be a couple of near enough completely anonymous people in there every year!
OMG Where's Donny? 
I was soooo looking forward to seeing Donny Osmond in the jungle.... That is all just pants, I'm in the cream puff now...
No idea whatsoever, like many others who Carly Zucker and Nicola McLean are...but if they're airhead WAG types I usually end up liking them on these shows
Only found out who Joe Swash was a couple of weeks ago because I've been watching his sister on Celebrity Scissorhands...if he's anything like Shana he'll be great.
As for the others my only prediction is that Simon Webbe will be monumentally boring...they've obviously got through all the other Blue members on other RTV shows

I only know Simon Webbe. I have no idea who the others are.
I will still be watching though, I always enjoy the show.

You're 'still' watching Scissorhands ?...........
Oh lord...Nicola's partner played for Wycombe briefly..and she lives life like he plays for Chelsea
She's straight out of Footballers Wives...and completely unable to do anything herself. She'll either be loved or hated I feel.

Shall we just say Simon Webbe is going to have the tweeny vote and will most likely win
Not much in the way of eye candy for us blokes this year and I have a feeling Nicole and Carly have been put in there in the hope of a catfight....
Looking at that list and as a self confessed Trekkie, I am going to support George, so George to win

I think it will be the latter and I don't think she will last long

I'm wondering if viewers might keep her in and force her to do tasks like er..whichever Appleton sister it was. This is a woman who can't even phone her own local Chinese takeaway and gave birth in full Page 3 make- up....

I meant 'ancient' as in 'older than me'..........
He must be in his 70s at least..........mind, Esther must be getting on that way as well..........
Sheesh..........they both must be pretty 'game' to take this on.........

He is the 'predictable win' shock early exit candidate, IMO of course
