TV chef is keen on I'm A Celeb appearance

Television chef Gary Rhodes has said that he is interested in taking part in the jungle show 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here'.
The 48-year-old star told The Sun that his only worry would be who was put into the jungle camp with him.
Rhodes said: "I am adventurous and I wouldn't mind going in the jungle."
"It's just the people I'd get lumbered with that worries me. I would always definitely, definitely go in if I could be with the Manchester United squad and Alex Ferguson. Every time.
"Or even a nice all-girl group like Girls Aloud but I don't think my wife would be too pleased with that."
"I guess if it was both the Man Utd and the girl group it would diffuse it slightly."

Dawn, who played Vera Duckworth in 'Coronation Street', recently quit the show due to ill health.
She said: "I used to go to Granada and I used to go in the dressing room, and I'd be really breathless before I even did anything."
"And I got that bad, at the end that instead of somebody knocking on the door and saying: 'It's your scene', I used to go on a scene earlier and sit on the Duckworths' set."
Dawn also said that she quit smoking after her diagnosis: "When you're addicted to smoking it's very hard to stop... I couldn't answer the phone unless I lit up."
The actress said that she regretted smoking around non-smokers: "I mean there are a lot of non-smokers in 'Coronation Street' that I have stood next to and smoked. Must have been awful mustn't it?"
Dawn's doctor Professor Ashley Woodcock said: "Liz came to me about five years ago really pretty desperate."
"At that point she could walk just a couple of yards... she was in a really bad way."
"Stopping her smoking was really critical and she did that... which has been great because she wouldn't be here now... if she hadn't stopped"
