DAVID Gest has a new rival for jungle’s scariest creepy-crawlie — ex-EastEnder Dean Gaffney.

Skint Dean, 28, was flown out as a stand-by contestant on the ITV1 reality show. Now bosses want to introduce him to the camp within days.

They hope he will prove as much of a hit as Liza Minnelli’s weird ex Gest, who is already causing a riot.

Dean — who quit as street sweeper Robbie Jackson in the BBC1 soap three years ago — is reportedly having to sell his £925,000 home after blowing £1million on booze and clothes.

A show insider said: “Dean is just too good to have on stand-by, we had to use him.”

Footie legend Stan Bowles is also due to jet out to Australia.

The ex-England star, 58, is notorious for his gambling, drinking and womanising.

Show chiefs are still debating whether to send him in or keep him on stand-by.

These two could well be the two newbies entering tomorrow.

That will mean 7 Boys to 5 Women.

Dean might be good entertainment, he was quite good on the club from what I saw of it.

[Ella]

Nooo not Dean, OMG what a loser!

[GlitterEyes]

I think Dean will add a bit of humour to the camp...whether we laugh at him or with him I'm not sure of yet

[Ella]

Lol, I think I will be laughing at him, trying to flirt with all the women, and getting nowhere

[GlitterEyes]

Which women are single in there? I know Jan said she was but a toyboy was out of the question

[Ella]

Lol! Well Dean has a habit of going for anyTHING
I think Phina might be single and maybe faith, I know Myleene has a fella.

[GlitterEyes]

Yeah anything...and that is why I think the guys are in more danger than the women! The females are either attached or wrinkley unless they bring in some girl and him together.

[Ella]

LOL! Yeah, well Scott might be in luck then, I did read that he bought Vaseline as his luxury item

[GlitterEyes]

Lol thank goodness for all the bushes...that is something I would clearly not like to see.

[Ella]

LMAO! Yeah same here, In fact I think it would be wrong for anyone to want to see it...Eeeeek

[GlitterEyes]

Dean must come really cheap aswell so they wont have to pay much for him to enter. Do we know who the other person is yet or any rumours?

[Ella]

Hmmm It must be a girl, Or i hope it is...A nice young girl for Matt

[GlitterEyes]

Matt is with Emma isn't he? I hope they bring in some young up for a laugh type female in to spice things up, not normlly a fan of bringing in new people to shows but this one needs lifting with all the oldies in it.

[Ella]

Ohh I thought Matt and Emma split up..Yeah they defo need a young, care free female in there.

[Dan_]

Matt and Emma are still together and have moved in with each other.

I doubt Dean will be flirting anymore as he seems to have settled down with his partner and kids these days.

[Diablo]

I think Dean is doing brilliant at the Bush Tucker Trial. he was so terrified it was funny

[easypeasy]

deans cool. he is proving that before hes even got inside the camp!

[Mike]

He seems like a really nice guy and it's nice to see him have a good go at everything coming his way.

[Diablo]

I didn't like Dean before, but I thought he was great there..

This is first chance i've had to watch it.. I'm gonna try and see more of it.

I'm Glad it was Dean who went in instead of Malandra

[xGemmax]

I think he'll be entertianing. But hes such a flirt! He once chatted up my sister!
