Best bits: Nicola McLean's 18 days in the I'm A Celebrity jungle:
Nicola's entry into the jungle, back in mid November, was wet and wild including a mammoth helicopter ride, followed by walking across a large murky lake on floating "feet".

Just over a day into her jaunt in the jungle, Nicola's mettle was tested to the limit by the public, who pitted her against EastEnder Joe Swash in a Bushtucker Trial. However, she showed her fighting spirit by eating her way to victory and earning her deserving camp mates food for the night.

After proving she has the stomach for the fight, the next day saw Nicola take on TV presenter Dani Behr to win the Celebrity Chest. Conquering her fear of heights, Nicola won with aplomb to win more treats for her camp.

A couple of tough days followed for the glamour model, before she was picked to do her second Bushtucker Trial. It turned out to be one of the most difficult trials to date and Nicola only returned to camp with three meals. She later lost her bid for elimination immunity to Timmy Mallett.

However, the Page 3 model returned to form with a third and final Bushtucker Trial victory and three more Celebrity Chest successes - including teaming up with arch-enemy David Van Day.

Nicola's final best bit was probably her best overall. Taking part in a camp game, Nicola had to describe how to be a glamour model, including getting her fellow campmates to pose for a Polaroid picture. Martina and George striking a Nicola-esque pose is something that many of us are likely to forget in a hurry.

Oncw again - who the hell cares about this person - she is a nobody - she goes out with a footballer from, let's face it, a pretty much low league team of little importance and has only got her wongas out - if she hadn't done that we would not know who the hell she was. Surely there must be more important things going on within the confines of planet earth than having to watch and listen to the dribbling, inane and totally boring Nicola McLean and 'I'm a non entity, get me out of here'. Come on people, do you not have lives outside some rubbish ITV drivel that is the same thing every year. Yes, first time around it was new, novel if you like - but now - it is mind numbing dross - go for walk or something and let these has beens eat bugs

Nicola's probably a perfectly nice person and how she chooses to pursue a career is her own business (after all, Katie Price did ok for herself), but why on earth is the ET and now the Mayor claiming that Miss McLean's antics in the jungle are a credit to Peterborough??

Are people really getting Nicola confused with someone that is from Peterborough, just because her fiancé plays football here?

so the mayor says " she is doing Peterborough proud"...Are you joking..Selfish, arrogant and a bully, are these the attributes the mayor wants young people of Peterborough to aspire to? Have the lunatics taken over the asylum....Or just the town hall?

Good God , if we hold such people in awe then it really does show how far down the tubes British society has gone .I was however surprised to see she was 25 , i genuinely thought she looked much older .
As for her comparison with Jordon , two horses from the same stable .David or Joe to win , Navratilova is also a nasty piece of work who bitches behind contestants backs and loads the ammunition for others to fire .
