Nadine Dorries is the first person to be evicted from I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!

The politician was voted out by the public, and was given hugs by her campmates as they learned of the decision.

Hosts Ant and Dec announced the outcome of the vote at the campsite.

Nadine Dorries has been evicted from the I'm A Celebrity jungle

She said: 'I'm not disappointed at being the first, especially when you're starving. I kind of expected it.'

'It's been a fascinating experience. I actually came here self-important for a few days,  but I'm not now.'

Speaking about Helen Flanagan, who she praised as 'very intelligent', Nadine has revealed she gave her a motivational talk prior to her Bushtucker victory, and seemed to take credit for Helen's trial triumph.

A frosty reception back home? She has angered her fellow MPs with the decision to enter the jungle

Big hugs: The evicted MP was greeted by partner Chris 

She also predicted that David Haye would be the overall winner.

The MP  was suspended from the Tory party after flying to the jungle without getting permission from David Cameron.

She has angered her Tory colleagues and constituents with her appearance on the show, despite insisting she would be using her time on the series to promote politics.

And then there were two: Eric Bristow and Nadine waited to find out which one was staying in the jungle

Not all celebrities were up for the public vote. 

The Beds Bug task saw the campmates have to sleep in beds, with the five who stayed in the beds longest  possibly earning immunity from the first eviction.

Unsurprisingly, the task had a gruesome twist.

Each celebrity had to share the bed with a jungle creature. 

Walk of shame: Nadine crosses the bridge to be interviewed by Ant and Dec

Lazing about: Nadine was spotted relaxing in the jungle, but has now been voted out

Bugged out: She was subjected to Bush Tucker trials, including being buried in a coffin with bugs

Former Pussycat Doll star Ashley excelled at the bed bugs task, and admitted she took her mind off it by watching two rats mate beside her

The five celebrities who accumulated the most amount of time during the challenge and previous Bush Buddy tasks would be spared from the jungle eviction.

They had previously arrived at their challenge in their coloured pyjamas and got into their special beds.

Bed Bugs: Some of the celebrities avoided eviction after taking part in a gruesome bed task

Sleepy time: The celebs were shocked at being told of the fright night that lay ahead

Couldn't sleep: Nadine wasn't a fan of the task, and left after 30 minutes 

Bed Bugs: Some of the celebrities avoided eviction after taking part in a gruesome bed task

They each received a ranking based on  previous Bush Buddy challenges - with the ranking determining the length of time they had to share their bed with the other creatures. The better the ranking the later the  'bugs' would be delivered.

David decided to leave after 18 minutes before his bugs even arrived.

He said it was because he just wanted some sleep, reasoning: 'No way in a million years am I am going to be able to sleep with creepy crawlies going over me.'

Scorpions and beetles were in Nadine's bed, but she decided to leave after 30 minutes.

Snakes and Larders: Hugo Taylor endured a Bush Tucker trial earlier on in the show in a bid to win some food for campmates

A taste of victory: Hugo took part in the Savage Sewer task, and ended up winning nine stars

Eggs-ellent meal: Because of Hugo's win they tucked into an ostrich omelette 

Helen left after 34 minutes because she saw the snakes coming 'towards her'.

Rosemary managed to even fall asleep in her bed, despite being joined by soldier crabs.

The celebrities were finally informed who would avoid the first public vote.  Ashley Roberts came first, with  Hugo second.

Rosemary, Limahl and Linda rounded out the top five, with Eric, Nadine Dorres, Colin Baker, Charlie, Helen and David facing the first public vote off.

A delighted Ashley said she would place the certificate next to her Pussycat Dolls platinum records.

Earlier on Wednesday's show, viewers saw Hugo winning nine stars during the Bush Tucker trial entitled Savage Sewer 

Getting annoyed: The campmates bickered after struggling with a music challenge

The  task comprised of Hugo entering a 'sewer' chamber and going through six pipes, grabbing the eleven stars that were up for grabs.

Hugo admitted that he had nerves about the task as he has a fear of confined spaces.

He said: 'I can’t even go on the tube in London I hate it so much.'

However, he won nine out of eleven stars after coming across snakes, rats and other jungle creatures in the pipes. 

A proud Hugo said before he made his way back to the camp: 'I’m not going to lift a finger for the rest of the day.  I’m going to really, really abuse my success now to make sure I get the best out of my day.'

The subsequent meal from the trial was a feast of ostrich eggs.

They made an omelette, with Hugo declaring it 'the best thing ever cooked in the jungle''.

Rosemary Shrager gave the camp a cooking lesson, but her barking orders at other campmates annoyed a grouchy Eric.

The disgruntled sports star said: 'You don’t have to shout at people for them to listen.'

The impending eviction seems to have got under Eric's skin.

Taking credit: During her post-eviction interview Nadine claims she was the reason Helen triumphed in her Bush Tucker trial recently after giving her a motivational speech

Breakdown: Helen ended up in tears after she was insulted by Eric Bristow's jibes about her skin

Not only did he have an argument with Rosemary over the omelette, he also jibed Helen Flanagan about her skin, leading others to join in - resulting in Helen breaking down in tears.

There was also tension in the camp when they only managed to win four meals during a trial.

They had to take a musical challenge to win camp food, and guess songs by each playing a note on their bells.

The task began well, with them guessing the first three songs.

However, they only got one more right after failing the rest. 

Delivering the bad news: Ant and Dec tell Nadine she's going home

A disappointed Limahl commented: 'You know why we’ve got a Prime Minister running the country cause you’ve got everyone chirping in.  It’s so hard isn’t it?'  

Meanwhile, Brian Conley has been released from hospital and is 'recuperating' with his family after being taken ill during filming of I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out Of Here.

The entertainer had to leave the show - filmed in the Australian jungle - earlier this week for what ITV said were 'medical reasons'.

His agent issued a statement which said: 'We can confirm Brian Conley has been discharged from hospital and is delighted to be back with his family recuperating.

'He would like to thank everyone for their kind wishes and concern.'

I'm A Celebrity's Helen Flanagan showers in her bikini as she struggles with camp life

She doesn't waste much time! I'm A Celebrity's Helen Flanagan showers in her bikini as she struggles with camp life

By KIRSTY MCCORMACK

Ever since it was revealed that Helen Flanagan would be heading into the jungle, it was expected that she would show off her bikini body and that's exactly what she's been doing.

The 22-year-old actress displayed her feminine figure in a revealing two-piece during her first day on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here.

The star's sexy shower antics came as she struggled with life in camp and admitted to being lazy.

She doesn't waste much time! I'm A Celebrity contestant Helen Flanagan takes a shower in camp wearing a bikini

Getting clean: The 22-year-old took to the water wearing a blue frilly two-piece

Helen was the final celebrity to emerge from her sleeping bag on the first morning in camp, and felt forced to do her bit as she watched the rest of the group busy themselves.

However, she didn't exactly make herself useful and failed to find a job to do, looking shocked when she discovered that one of the daily chores was to clean out the dunny.

'We have to clean the dunny every day and you will have to do it,' Linda Robson told the former soap star.

Being useful: Helen had struggled to find something to do in camp

In the jungle: Helen didn't look too bothered about potential bugs as she showered in the wilderness

'No one is allowed to do a number two while they are here,' Helen then declared upon hearing this.

She then confided in Brian Conley, saying: 'How come everyone is so much better at doing stuff than me?' before confessing to Linda and EastEnders star Charlie Brooks: 'I don’t think I’m going to be very popular because I’m squeamish.'

'You might be popular to do the trials,' Linda predicted, meaning that the public will no doubt pick on her now.

Look of concentration: Helen ensured that her tanned figure was thoroughly clean before returning to the camp

Helen continued the conversation by admitting that she thinks she will annoy her fellow campmates by not pulling her weight, but this didn't impress Linda, who muttered: 'You will cause I’ll make you do it!'

But instead of doing something that would benefit everyone, Helen decided to pamper herself and declared: 'I’m going to go and give myself a spray tan and do something constructive.'

The idea of having a glowing tan was clearly enough to make Helen forget all about her first night's sleep in the jungle.

Not happy: Helen found herself in tears following her first night in the jungle

Once again bothering Linda, the blonde actress complained that she had heard a rat and also claimed that a bug had bitten her on the face.

Clearly distressed, the actress called for help from the males in camp but they seemed underwhelmed by her dramatic performance.

Linda advised her to leave them to sleep, saying otherwise ‘they will get the hump,' which drove Helen to admit: 'People are going to get fed up with me.’

Dry your eyes: The blonde admitted that she might be sleeping in the same bed as Charlie Brooks because she was so scared

But after a difficult night under the stars, Helen was unable to hold back the tears and let it all out once inside the Bush Telegraph.

Revealing that she might be spending the night in bed with actress Charlie, Helen told the cameras: 'It’s been emotionally draining and bless her poor Charlie I must be doing her head in because I won’t leave her alone. She’s so nice she said "you can sleep with me tonight" so that’s good.

'I’m knackered.  I was here with my sleeping bag standing up thinking "oh my God there are rats crawling around my bed and I’ve got to go to sleep. How do I do this?" I completely freaked out.'

Smile! Helen looked utterly miserable as she cried in the Bush Telegraph

The rats continued to be the topic of conversation in the morning, where boxer David Haye admitted to finding the rats cute, while Brian confessed that one nipped his toe.

But Croc Creek wasn't the only place home to an emotional campmate, as elsewhere in Snake Rock, Hugo Taylor was struggling to cope too.

The Made In Chelsea star appeared exhausted and was overcome with emotion while in the Bush Telegraph.

At first, the reality TV star seemed upbeat while talking about the Bushtucker Trial - which saw him lose out to David Haye - but when he began really reflecting on his time in the jungle so far, he couldn't stop the tears from flowing.

Cry baby: Hugo Taylor also found himself in tears inside the Bush Telegraph as he reflected on his time in the jungle so far

'As far as this experience is going it’s definitely harder,' he told the camera. 'I’m just hungry and tired and feeling a bit over emotional.

'I didn’t expect to cry this early. It’s hard to rationalise when your body is saying you need to eat, when you need to sleep. It’s just terrible,' he added.

He went on to say: 'When I found out I lost the trial going through all of that suspense and doing the whole challenge and then finding out that you haven’t won anything, that’s pretty demoralising.

Hungry and tired: The Made In Chelsea star said he was finding the lack of food hard to deal with

'It would have been nice to have had a nice richer meal than rice and beans. When I walked in you could see people’s faces looking saying "do you have good news?" I think immediately they could tell that I didn’t.'

Referring to his campmates and their roles in the jungle, Hugo continued: 'I’m not bitching around here at all, or maybe I am a little bit but Nadine is a mother and my understanding of mother’s normally is that they know how to cook pretty basic food.

'I think Nadine keeps looking to me for answers on how to cook, I’m not an expert but I think some people need to take a little bit more initiative right now.'

Bitching already: Hugo also said that he thinks Nadine Dorries should know 'how to cook basic food' because she is a mother

I'm A Celebrity line-up: Helen Flanagan, an ex Time Lord, controversial MP Nadine Dorries and boxing champ David Haye get ready to rumble in the jungle  

By SARAH BULL

PUBLISHED: 14:53, 7 November 2012 | UPDATED: 16:51, 7 November 2012

Former Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan, ex Time Lord Colin Baker, controversial MP Nadine Dorries and Pussycat Dolls singer Ashley Roberts are among the contestants taking part in this year's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

Despite speculation over the past few months, the final line-up was officially confirmed by ITV on Wednesday ahead of the series premiere on Sunday night.

The other famous faces to take part in the show include former world heavy weight boxing champion David Haye, actor Brian Conley, EastEnders star Charlie Brooks, Made In Chelsea’s Hugo Taylor, former Birds Of A Feather star Linda Robson and darts champion Eric Bristow.

Getting ready to rumble in the jungle: Helen Flanagan is just one of the contestants taking part in this year's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

Eye candy: Former EastEnders actress Charlie Brooks and ex Pussycat Dolls singer Ashley Roberts will be competing with Helen in the bikini battle

Pictures revealed of the celebrities show them in their jungle gear for the first time ahead of making their way to the camp in the Australian Bush, and Helen said she is more than excited about beginning the experience.

She said: 'People don’t expect me to be in the jungle and one of my big reasons for doing I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! is I like to have different options. I don’t want to put all my eggs in one basket and I like to take things how they come. 

'I also always go with my instinct too and when the offer came through, it felt right to do this.
What’s so nice about this show is I can go in as me. It won’t be my toughest role yet because I am being me rather than someone else.'

And Helen added that she is hoping to rival former contestant Myleene Klass in the bikini stakes, taking an array of two-pieces to choose from.

She said: 'I went shopping in London before I flew out to buy some bikinis for the jungle.

'You can take three sets in and so I am going to do that. I don’t mind that it is going back to basics because I will make sure I am tanned, manicured and I have got my lashes on!'

But Helen is sure to have some competition when it comes to standing out in her bikini, from her equally glamorous female contestants including former EastEnders actress Charlie and sexy blonde singer Ashley.

However, Charlie said she is more concerned about getting on with people in the camp than looking picture perfect, adding: 'I think I will be quite motherly in the camp. I have my little girl and I look after my friends too and so I think that side will come out. I am not a bad cook either.

'I just want to have some fun and I hope there will be some people in there who do want to have some fun too. Christopher Biggins was great because he was the life and soul of the camp and he was so uplifting.'

Plan of action: Ex Time Lord Colin Baker is hoping to lose at least a stone and a half during his time on the show

As well as baring their bikini bodies, the contestants will be forced to face their fears in the dreaded Bushtucker Trials - a prospect Ashley is less than excited about.

She explained: 'I am so nervous about getting in the jungle and getting through some of the
challenges. And that is where my mind set is. This experience is going to test me in so many ways. It’s going to be very challenging for me and it’s going to take me out of my comfort zone.

'I don’t like enclosed situations either and if I see a bug or rodent, my initial reaction is to run the other way!'

Somebody feeling more confident about taking on the trials is controversial MP Nadine, who triggered a political storm when she jetted off to Australia without telling Prime Minister David Cameron, party whips or even her local activists.

And speaking about how I'm A Celebrity and the political world are similar, Nadine said: 'Westminster is a jungle. Game playing, tactics, strategies. In Westminster you achieve everything by vote. This is the same. The parallels are huge.

'Politics is a very difficult and a hard world. Nobody realises that until they get there and it takes a certain amount of front, especially as a woman, to survive it. 

'Everyone has different techniques in Westminster. Some people shut down, some people keep themselves to themselves and everyone has a different technique. This will be another one. I work in a jungle.'

The male contestants in the show include boxing champion David, who said he is looking forward to seeing how his combative tactics fare in the jungle.

He explained: 'When you step into a boxing ring, you are putting your life on the line. It is a sport and if you take a punch badly, it is life changing. In that respect, going in the jungle will not be harder.

'But I do think it is going to be tough because it's a situation I am not familiar with. It's out of my comfort zone and being in the jungle will present its own challenges.'

Hats off to them: Former Made In Chelsea star Hugo Taylor and presenter and actor Brian Conley will be facing their fears in the jungle

Darting around: Darts player Eric Bristow is one of the lesser known names taking part in the show

Another popular reason for taking part in I'm A Celebrity is the weight loss that comes with such a limited diet - a reason which sparked 69-year-old ex Doctor Who actor Colin's interest.

Revealing he is hoping to lose a stone and a half in weight during his time on the show, Colin said: 'I am a rather large gentleman and I adore my food. I could give up booze with a drop of a hat but food, my gosh there is not even a fridge I can raid in the middle of the night!

'But I am seeing this as an opportunity to lose weight. I am aiming for at least a stone and a half and it would be fabulous if I can. I just then hope I can keep it off once I am out!'

While weight loss wasn't the main reason for Brian Conley taking part in the show, he admits that he just couldn't refuse the chance to go on such an entertaining and exciting programme.

Reporting for duty: Ant and Dec will be returning to host the hilarious programme

Rumble in the jungle: The winner of I'm A Celebrity can expect a massive career boost from the programme

He said: 'I am 51 and this is an experience that money cannot buy. This is a trip I will take to my grave and I will never forget.'

One person somewhat accustomed to the reality show format is former Made In Chelsea star Hugo Taylor, who will be providing some much-needed male eye candy in the depths of the jungle. 

However, being in a happy relationship with Natalie Joel, Hugo won't be tempted by any of the attractive females in the jungle, and is more interested in furthering his career through the programme.

He said: 'I am 26 and I am starting my career. I would love to do more TV. Of course you do not know what is going to happen but my other big passion in life is the History of Art. I would like to make programmes about art and architecture and make them interesting. I’d also like to write my own TV shows. 

'I am excited about what lies ahead. Taking yourself away from the first world of Champagne for a bit is going to be interesting.'

Darts player Eric Bristow completes the line-up for the 2012 series of I'm A Celebrity, which kicks off on ITV1 on Sunday night at 9pm.
