Non-stop flatulence, a dead possum, and being too darn sexy. Are these the most ridiculous I'm a Celebrity fights in the history of the jungle?

After Croc campmates Melanie Sykes and Vicki Michelle bickered over a pencil in last night's show (November 26), we reminisce over some of the silliest spats over the years.

From Brian Harvey's continual wind to Darren Day being too darn sexy - here are 10 absurd jungle rumbles:

1. Darren Day's too sexy for the jungle?

Sizzling sexual chemistry or far too much flatulence? It was almost impossible to keep up with Darren Day and Tara Palmer-Tomkinson's love/hate relationship in the 2002 series.

Palmer-Tomkinson shocked the entire nation as she revealed the root of their tension was all down to Day's unbridled sexiness, shouting: "I'll tell you why I am very uptight. It's because I think you are so f**king sexy."

Most put it...

Going into I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! is a dangerous business.

We're not talking about the poisonous spiders, bitey snakes or what might be lurking in the dunny.

No. When the frightened famous faces leap out of the plane and parachute into the jungle, they are taking their careers in their hands.

And while being on I'm a Celeb can revitalise a flagging career, it can also ruin it if you come out unfavourably during a campside spat or six.

Ahead of the show launching tonight, Digital Spy present our very own Snakes and Ladders. Who had a slippery slide down the public's favour? And who climbed the career ladder when they got to the other side of the rope bridge?

After 13 series, there have now been more than enough I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! winners to fill up their own all-star series.

They all had to endure creepy crawlies, tough Bushtucker Trials and mockery by Ant & Dec, but they all won the hearts of the nation for a couple of weeks.

Some of them may have fallen from grace since, while some have soared up the UK fame ranks. But who were the best champions from their respective series? Here's our just-for-fun, don't-take-it-too-seriously Top 13.

13. Carol Thatcher - Series 5 (2005)

Potentially the most surprising winner of the lot, no-one could have guessed that Margaret Thatcher's daughter would have been voted the nation's favourite.

Viewers were won over by how involved she was in the tasks, her no-nonsense attitude, and the fact that she was only up against Sid Owen and Cannon & Ball.

12. Matt Willis - Series 6 (2006)

The Busted...

Michael Barrymore has said that he feels "some responsibility " after the death of Stuart Lubbock in March 2001.

Lubbock was found dead in Barrymore's swimming pool after attending a party at the entertainer's house in Roydon, Essex.

"I just froze, that was my very first thought," Barrymore told Jeremy Kyle: Celebrity Specials yesterday (June 9) of seeing Lubbock's body in his swimming pool.

"I ran back into the house to get help, and then the two boys started giving CPR, and then the ambulance was called for and that in turn calls the police, and I was stood… just in complete shock.

"The first thing I did wasn't run away, the first thing I did was run to get help."

He continued: "I'm in the middle of a case right now which we've been working on for three years for wrongful arrest against the Essex Police."

Asked about his 'trial by media' after the incident,...

Tara Palmer-Tomkinson has opened up about her drug battles over the years in an emotional new interview.

Speaking to Jeremy Kyle, the 42-year-old spoke about how a cocaine overdose nearly stopped her heart.

She said: "I remember timing my heart because I knew it was going to stop. I remember my telephone was there [points] and I remember crawling on my hands and knees to pick up the phone and call, and then I woke up in hospital.

"I remember saying my prayers. I knew my heart was stopping."

Palmer-Tomkinson explained that her addiction led to her having a "psychosis" and becoming "devious and deceptive and deceitful".

She also admitted to getting "drunk" on the plane while travelling to a £35,000 rehab centre in Arizona.

The former socialite revealed that she has become a "recluse" in recent years, and still struggles with anxiety issues.

"I don't have any temptation to take drugs any more.

Michael Barrymore and Tara Palmer-Tomkinson are among the stars due to appear on The Jeremy Kyle Show.

Jeremy Kyle is to host a week of celebrity specials in June, in which he chats to five guests about a range of issues, including money, drugs and relationships.

Barrymore will appear on June 9, and will talk about his drug and drink addictions, the breakdown of his marriage and the party at his house which resulted in the death of Stuart Lubbock.

Palmer-Tomkinson will discuss her cocaine addiction and her reported relapse on June 10.

Tito Jackson, Coronation Street star Liz Dawn and Happy Mondays frontman Shaun Ryder will also appear on the show later in the month.

Each episode will be broadcast at 2pm on ITV.

The specials follow previous one-off celebrity editions, including Alex Reid, Jodie Marsh and Leslie Grantham.

It's alright - we can all breathe a sigh of relief. The Jump is over, though sadly we cannot say that no celebrities were harmed in the making of this show. Because lots were. Lots and lots and lots.

When Digital Spy visited the set of Channel 4's luminary-lashing reality series just before Christmas - as the stars were in their first days of ski jump training - we made a joke on the plane about the broadcaster needing to have a lot of insurance. Looking back, that was either prescient or just in really bad taste.

Let's look at the numbers. Tara Palmer-Tomkinson pulled out before the show began, apparently because it "wasn't for her". That may have been one of the best decisions Tpt has ever made, ever, because shortly afterwards, and before one second had even aired on television, Sam Jones (Flash Gordon!) was forced to withdraw after injuring his shoulder.

Sinitta has admitted she was "completely clueless" about the dangers posed by The Jump before she signed up.

The reality show has seen a number of celebrities withdraw following injuries, with Sam Jones quitting after hurting his shoulder, Tara Palmer-Tomkinson choosing not to compete before the show began, Henry Conway departing after breaking his wrist during skeleton training, and Melinda Messenger exiting after suffering from concussion.

The Jump: Ritchie and Anthea attempt the bobsleigh - video

Asked whether she knew beforehand how dangerous The Jump was going to be, the latest eliminee told reporters including Digital Spy: "No, I didn't! I mean, I know that people can get injured skiing but I think I was focusing more on thinking of the show about skiing and then if things go wrong you have to jump. But I kind of put that to the back of my mind.

"With the skeleton and the bobsleigh.

Melinda Messenger is the latest celebrity to have been forced to pull out of The Jump.

The Channel 4 competition has seen a number of injuries, with Sam Jones quitting after hurting his shoulder and Tara Palmer-Tomkinson choosing not to compete before the show began.

Meanwhile, Henry Conway revealed that he would have to quit yesterday after breaking his wrist during skeleton training.

Channel 4 has now confirmed that Messenger suffered from concussion and has left the competition after medical advice.

"After weeks of training for The Jump, Melinda Messenger has had to pull out of the competition after suffering from concussion following bobsleigh training a few days ago," a spokesperson said.

"It had been hoped that she would recover quickly enough to continue in the show but as she hasn't been able to train on medical advice she sadly had to withdraw."

Investigative journalist Donal MacIntyre - who lost out...

When we first heard about Channel 4's new winter sports show The Jump, we were intrigued. And then they announced the cast, and we could not wait. There is nothing about Sinitta in a snowsuit that doesn't appeal to us, so we've been counting down the hours until today, when the 12 celebrities will compete and face a live ski jump for the first time.

The show's already lost two - Sam Jones went out after injuring himself in an over-exuberant celebration, and Tara Palmer-Tomkinson decided the whole shebang wasn't for her. Now we're actually going to lose a celebrity in competition - let's just hope no-one breaks any bones in the process. So join Digital Spy from 8pm when the show kicks off on Channel 4...

21:00So, what did you think of The Jump? Will you be tuning in to watch the women take on the slalom? Let us know below.

The Jump celebrities have been introduced to the intimidating ski ramp for the first time.

The new Channel 4 show sees 12 famous faces tackling winter games such as bobsleigh, toboggan and cross-country skiing, as well as attempting a live ski jump to determine who stays in the competition.

Upon sitting at the top of the ramp for the first time, Amy Childs describes the prospect as "so nerve-wracking", while Sir Steve Redgrave claims that he hasn't got "a hope in hell".

Sinitta, Melinda Messenger and Darren Gough are among the other celebrities to express their shock at the height of the ramp.

The other competitors on the nightly series include Anthea Turner, Kimberly Wyatt, Marcus Brigstocke, Nicky Clarke and Henry Conway.

Laura Hamilton has stepped in for Tara Palmer-Tomkinson, who backed out of the competition earlier this month, while 5ive's Ritchie Neville has replaced the injured Flash Gordon actor Sam Jones.

The Jump's host Davina McCall has promised that the show will keep viewers on the edge of their seats.

Channel 4's new competition sees 12 celebrities - including Sinitta and Sir Steve Redgrave - competing in a variety of winter sports, with each elimination decided in a live ski jump.

McCall, who will host the show with Alex Brooker, has now joked that the show will keep viewers so tense that they won't need to go to the gym.

"Picture the scene - it's January, you're depressed, New Year's Eve has been and gone, you've already broken your New Year's resolutions and you're feeling really bad about yourself," she said.

"What you need to do is sit down in front of the television and watch an entertainment programme that will have you clenching your buttocks so hard that you won't need to visit the gym for a month!"

She added: "There's going to be danger,...

Amy Childs, Sinitta and ten fellow brave celebrities have donned their ski gear for the first cast shot from The Jump.

The new Channel 4 show, due to begin later this month, sees 12 famous faces tackling winter games such as bobsleigh, toboggan and cross-country skiing.

Airing nightly, the series will decide eliminations based on a live ski jump.

Childs and Sinitta will be joined by fellow female contestants Anthea Turner, Melinda Messenger, Kimberly Wyatt and Laura Hamilton - who stepped in when Tara Palmer-Tomkinson decided to quit the competition.

5ive's Ritchie Neville - who is a replacement for injured Flash Gordon star Sam Jones - is also in the photograph, along with Marcus Brigstocke, Nicky Clarke, Henry Conway, Darren Gough and Sir Steve Redgrave.

The Jump is expected to begin on Channel 4 on January 26.

The Jump has lost another contestant as Flash Gordon star Sam Jones has been forced to pull out of the show.

The Channel 4 competition - which sees various celebrities battling it out in winter sports and live ski jumps - has already seen Tara Palmer-Tomkinson decide to quit.

Jones has now been forced to exit after picking up a shoulder injury during training a few weeks ago, and has been replaced by 5ive's Ritchie Neville.

When Digital Spy visited the ski jump in Austria last month, Jones - who injured himself in an over-exuberant celebration after a successful jump - was wearing a sling and had to leave to go to a doctor's appointment.

Channel 4 has now confirmed to DS that Jones will not be competing, saying: "We had hoped that he would recover in time to still take part in the show but unfortunately he has had to...

Tara Palmer-Tomkinson has quit Channel 4's upcoming series The Jump.

The socialite was due to take part in the winter sports-themed reality competition, but has decided to leave the show.

TV presenter and former Dancing on Ice runner-up Laura Hamilton will now replace Palmer-Tomkinson in the lineup.

A Channel 4 spokesperson told Digital Spy: "After this week's training Tara has decided the show isn't for her.

"Laura Hamilton has replaced her and has been in Austria training with the rest of the contestants."

Last month, the Palmer-Tomkinson revealed that she felt under pressure due to being named as a potential winner of the ski-jump series.

She said: "I feel like I'm under a lot of pressure. I'm not very comfortable with being the favourite. I'm really not."

Towie star Amy Childs, Olympian Sir Steve Redgrave and 1980s singer Sinitta are also among the stars taking part on the show.

Sir Steve Redgrave, Sinitta and Amy Childs are among the stars who have signed up for Channel 4's new celebrity competition The Jump.

The show - hosted by Davina McCall and Alex Brooker - will see 12 celebrities competing against each other in six winter sports.

Five time Olympian Redgrave will be joined by cricketer Darren Gough, comedian Marcus Brigstocke, hairdresser Nicky Clarke, socialite Henry Conway and Flash Gordon star Sam Jones.

Meanwhile, Sinitta and Childs will be joined by four other female competitors - Tara Palmer-Tomkinson, Pussycat Doll Kimberly Wyatt, Anthea Turner and Melinda Messenger.

The 12 famous faces will be trained by Olympic skier Graham Bell and Olympic skeleton star Amy Williams, as they take part in Skeleton, Bobsleigh, Speed Skating, Skier Cross and Slalom.

Legendary Olympian Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards will also coach the stars, and suggested that the competition is about "mental strength" as much as "physical...

Rebecca Adlington came over all teary following a confrontation with Matthew Wright over the cooking of a possum on I'm a Celebrity last night (November 25).

The Olympic swimmer had advised Wright to keep the the fire low to stop the food from burning at the suggestion of Kian Egan, before the broadcaster started frantically gesticulating, saying: "Stop telling me what to do. I know what he wants but I can't do it when every decision I make, you undermine." However, the pair speedily made amends.

Speaking of spats in the jungle, we dig out 8 of I'm a Celeb's classic campfire fights - from Darren Day's fartgate to Janice Dickinson threatening to fry Lynne Franks' breasts - below:

Sources close to former It girl Tara Palmer-Tomkinson have claimed that the 39 year old is considering entering the Celebrity Big Brother house later this month.

Friends and family of the star are said to be worried about her recent erratic behaviour and concerned that she has either turned back to drugs or developed an alcohol addiction, which they said is being worse by the fact that she is currently being offered very little work.

In 2002 Tara’s popularity soared after an appearance on ITV’s I’m A Celebrity and for numerous years afterwards she earned £1million a year due to her work on newspaper columns, advertising campaigns and TV appearances.
