Anyone remember him? He was on the show a few series' back with Ant and Dec, definitely the highlight of the series. There's a video on youtube somewhere of him but I can't find it. Anyway, here's a couple of articles on him:
"Diva" koala axed from 'I'm A Celeb'
Hogan the Koala has been sensationally axed from the next series of I'm A Celebrity, according to the Daily Star today.
The bear, a media star in Oz via his ads for Qantas, joined the show last year as a sidekick to regular hosts Ant and Dec.
"I think having a koala on the show may have been an idea which looked good on paper," said Ant. "But the reality was it just didn't work. He was such a diva anyway. He never looked at the cameras when we wanted him to and even walked off set once."
The fifth series of I'm A Celebrity airs on ITV in November.

What Ant & Dec Really Think
• HOGAN THE KOALA Dec: I want to take Hogan back to the UK. He doesn't say as much as Ant, so I think we might have a new thing going on. Ant: I think he's brilliant. I love it when it goes a bit pear-shaped live. He hasn't peed on anyone, but he had poo all over the tree.

Oh, Kenny the Koala was on the ITV2 show the year after, he was pretty good but not as good as Hogan.
Anyone remember either of them?
