As usual, there are a host of glamour girls hoping to hot up the ITV1 show, including I'm A Celebrity star Sophie Anderton, 29, girl-about-town Alicia Douvall, 27, and DJ/Playboy Playmate Colleen Shannon, 24.

Keeping it in the family is Lady Victoria Hervey, 29, who last year watched sister Isabella's fun and frolics on the show, along with Paul Gascoigne's 19-year-old stepdaughter Bianca and Eternal star Kelle Bryan, 31.

The heart-throbs include Boyzone star Shane Lynch, 29, who was once married to Kelle's former bandmate Esther, Pierce Brosnan's 33-year-old son Chris, Hollyoaks actor Lee Otway, 24, and The Streets singer Leo Ihenacho, 29.

Additionally, Strictly Come Dancing Ballroom star Brendan Cole, 30, who shot to fame following his alleged fling with newsreader Natasha Kaplinsky, is also joining in the antics.

I'm more of the opinion that this year's group of 'Not So Celebs' is appauling. At least last year almost everyone had at least heard of the cast, with at least some celebrity status!

No wonder ITV have dropped the word 'celebrity' from the show!

Well what a surprise, yet another awful reality show with one of the awful Hervey sisters is in there. Go out and get a proper job! Mad

Some tabloids are still using the original title.

So this'll be the latest weapon in ITV's promised ratings battle against Big Brother.

I don't think there'll be many sleepless nights at Channel 4.

"As usual"?? They've only had one series before, haven't they?

Didn't it start to beat BB towards the end? I thought that is why they brought it back.

I can't see anyother reason for resurrecting this car crash.

It did, but not without the help of Coronation Street. ITV disgustingly used Corrie to prop up Love Island, by combing the two Monday episodes into one episode, running from 8.30pm to 9.30pm. If they do that this year then I'll be switching off.

Oh come on, I'm more of an ITV critic than most, but there's nothing whatsoever wrong with moving the schedule around to help out a programme that is suffering in the ratings. My beef here would be more along the lines of, why are ITV showing two episodes of Coronation Street on Monday in the first place, it smacks of lack of creativity to me.
