Freddie Starr exits jungle, taken to hospital
Freddie Starr has exited the I'm A Celebrity jungle after an allergic reaction and has been taken to hospital.
TV journalist Leigh Holmwood from The Sun revealed the news on Twitter this afternoon (November 14). "Freddie Starr has been rushed to hospital after suffering a severe allergic reaction," said Holmwood. "Freddie Starr is in good spirits I am told but he will be in hospital for at least 24 hours." Starr was a late entrant into the jungle, but finally entered at the weekend and his Greasy Spoon Bushtucker trial with Mark Wright will air on tonight's show. "Freddie Starr was taken unwell in the jungle. He was immediately attended to by on-site medics and taken to hospital where he was assessed by doctors," said a show rep. "He will remain in hospital overnight as a precaution and further tests continue. However, he is in great spirits and keeping nursing staff entertained." It is not known at this stage whether Starr will be allowed to return to the jungle later in the series, nor what caused his bout of illness. Earlier this year, Starr underwent a quadruple heart bypass, but the comic claimed that he was confident his health would hold up under the strain of the ITV1 reality show. |
Silly putting him in to begin with, he didn't look very healthy on last nights show even.

I thought he looked ill too.
Shame for the fella, he was willing to give it a go. I know it's still the early stages, but I don't think it would be wise to let him go back in. |
He didn't look as though he'd be able to do hardly any trials anyway...it's ridiculous that they keep putting these semi has been celebs in who are exempt of most trials for health reasons...isn't that the point of this kind of show
|
No, I don't think so either Visage. It's very early still, hopefully they'll get a replacement, It won't feel too much like a new addition
|
if its pat sharpe they should just not bother
|
Shame, I was looking forward to him most of all, but his health's more important, think it would be best for him not to go back.
- closes the Freddie fanclub - I hope they are not sending in bloody Pat Sharp as a replacement, dear God! Edit: :D :D OMGZ! I have just spotted one of those black things in my sig!!! :joker::joker: :suspect: |
I'd love to see Keith Lemon go in
|
....or Karl Pilkington
|
We need fit people who are up for anything, not middle aged smokers :nono:

Have no idea why they considered him. Clearly he's totally unfit, and certainly is no team player - he actually looked to a point, that he had no idea what planet he was on, when he was doing that first task tbh.
