There's been some comings and goings in the I'm A Celebrity jungle.
While Ex-EastEnder Joe Swash and TV presenter Dani Behr prepare to head down under, another famous face has decided to pull out of the show.
According to reports Joe, who played Mickey Miller in the BBC soap, has been confirmed for the show and will travel to the Aussie outback this week.
An ITV source revealed that show producers think he'll keep viewers hooked: "For years he was at the centre of the London party scene and bosses are hoping he'll spill the beans on some of his famous conquests."
Meanwhile, Dani Behr should fulfil the show's hottie criteria. After spending the past few years in Australia, Ryan Giggs' ex is hoping to make her UK comeback.
A show insider told The Sun: "She's taken time out to be a mum and crack America and now she's ready to make her comeback.
"She's got bags of personality and we can't wait to see how she handles the Aussie outback."
But it's not all going smoothly for I'm A Celeb bosses. Producers are apparently in crisis after Jimmy Pursey of Sham 69 fame pulled out of the show just days before he was due to fly out.
It seems being labelled a troublemaker didn't go down well with the punk rocker.
His spokesman told the Daily Star: "Jimmy was invited to go to Australia this year – not for the first time – to join the other celebrities in the jungle.
"Jimmy had already decided how he was going to spend his time in camp and it would have worked out well for the viewers.
"He wasn't out to cause anarchy just good, tongue-in-cheek, fun."
ITV officials were unavailable for comment, but a source told the newspaper: "It's taken us by surprise. We thought we had him in the bag and now he’s quit days before."
Hmm... we wonder who'll they'll ask to fill his hammock.
