I'm A Celebrity - Meet the celebrities

13 November 2007 - A bunch of celebrities have left their loved-ones and luxuries behind to spend some time in the middle of the Australian jungle with only the wildlife and each other for company.

Cut off from the outside world in one of the cruellest environments on earth, the well-known (and sometimes not so well-known) celebs will be filmed 24 hours a day and their celebrity status will count for nothing as they battle it out to be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle.
