This year's I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! line-up includes former British athlete Linford Christie, Happy Mondays singer Shaun Ryder and X Factor contestant Stacey Solomon.

Among the other 10 stars taking part are former Lib Dem MP Lembit Opik, Playboy model Kayla Collins and Paul Gascoigne's ex-wife Sheryl.

The series, fronted by presenters Ant & Dec, is now in its 10th series.

The show starts on ITV1 and ITV2 on Sunday 14 November.

The other contestants taking part in the show are rapper Aggro Santos, former Bond girl Britt Ekland, You Are What You Eat presenter Gillian McKeith and actor Nigel Havers.

'Endurance test'

Stacey Solomon finished in third place on the X Factor last year.

The 21-year-old says she's scared about being picked for every trial: "I am the type of person to squeal and I do think I will be voted for every trial. I can see that happening.

"But I want to see if I can do it and I am definitely going to give it a good go.

"It is an endurance test and I am sure I will make a fool of myself. But nobody is perfect."

Former Happy Mondays and Blake Grape frontman Shaun Ryder is taking part in his first reality TV series.

He says he's missed going on tour with Gorillaz to take part: "I am really dreading being on television 24/7, watched by millions of people.

"I decided to stay away from telly for a good few years.

"But I am not bothered about the crocodiles or bugs. The trials don't bother me, and I am actually looking forward to them, rather than dreading them.

"The thing I am most looking forward to though is having a laugh in the jungle."

Former winners of the show include Matt Willis, Kerry Katona and ex-England cricketer Phil Tufnell.

Last year I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! was won by Gino D'Acampo.
