Deadly storms threat to the I'm A Celebrity jungle

Contestants on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! are set to endure two more days of stormy weather in the wake of a hurricane that lashed Australia's east coast. The jungle camp escaped the worst of the storm that hit Brisbane and the Gold Coast - killing one man - but could be hit by more torrential rain and strong winds in the next 48 hours. A spokesman for the Met Office said the camp, 70 miles south of Brisbane which has been declared a natural disaster zone, could still be hit by storms.

He added: "The rain looks likely to continue over the next few days and south of Brisbane could still be hit by storms, although not as strong as we have already seen.

"There will certainly be some heavy showers and winds that are losing strength, but could still give the contestants a miserable few more days." A spokeswoman for the show said filming would continue and added: "The celebrities are feeling a bit glum about the weather, but it hasn't affected filming."

Meanwhile, glamour model Nicola McLean, 26, asked the ITV1 show's presenters Ant and Dec whether she could get pregnant by eating a kangaroo testicle, which she did during her Bushtucker Trial.
