By the end of May, British reality TV star Spencer Matthews will be Pippa Middleton‘s brother-in-law.

Non-stop flatulence, a dead possum, and being too darn sexy. Are these the most ridiculous I'm a Celebrity fights in the history of the jungle?
After Croc campmates Melanie Sykes and Vicki Michelle bickered over a pencil in last night's show (November 26), we reminisce over some of the silliest spats over the years.
From Brian Harvey's continual wind to Darren Day being too darn sexy - here are 10 absurd jungle rumbles:
1. Darren Day's too sexy for the jungle?
Sizzling sexual chemistry or far too much flatulence? It was almost impossible to keep up with Darren Day and Tara Palmer-Tomkinson's love/hate relationship in the 2002 series.
Palmer-Tomkinson shocked the entire nation as she revealed the root of their tension was all down to Day's unbridled sexiness, shouting: "I'll tell you why I am very uptight. It's because I think you are so f**king sexy."

Considering that every little thing that Kate Middleton does makes international headlines, you'd think she would be the most popular member of the British royal family. However, a new poll conducted by Newsweek revealed that she's not the top pick for British adults - in fact, she's not even in the top three! The survey found that Prince Harry is the most popular member of the British royal family, with 20 percent of respondents listing him as their top choice. He was followed by Queen Elizabeth II, who got 17 percent of the vote, and then Prince William, who was named the top pick by 10 percent of respondents. The Duchess of Cambridge came in fourth place with only nine percent of the vote. (It should be said that the most popular response was "I don't have a favorite member of the royal family," which got 32 percent of the vote.) The newest poll...

After 22 days in the jungle, royal fashion designer David Emanuel came second in this year's series of I'm a Celebrity. We catch up with the 61-year-old to find out about his jungle experience…
How does it feel to be out of the jungle, David?
"It feels unreal. My jungle experience was magical. It was like a dream. And the dream is now a reality. It's been an amazing journey. I didn't think I could hack it in the beginning, so I'm over the moon to have gone so far."
Why didn't you think you could hack it in the jungle?
"I've watched the show over the years, but I thought we'd do a scene and then have a bacon sandwich break. I thought we'd have a chef in there to cook for us - and I'd never seen the eating trial at the end. It was a shock to go through that.

Pargeter had been in a bad mood already as the other celebrities commented on how sad the departure of Rebecca Adlington and Alfonso Ribeiro was.

Pargeter didn't take kindly to the suggestion, replying: "Well, they tasted like s**t."
When Willerton suggested that the current beans also "taste[d] like s**t", Pargeter replied: "Well, I've done my best.

Ribeiro - who finished in seventh place - admitted that the voting public had finally given him his "wish" by voting him out.
He said: "I almost lost it back there. I'm so ready to see my wife and Aj. I'm very happy. Thank you for finally giving me my wish."

I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! stars Alfonso Ribeiro and Kian Egan were celebrating after winning eight meals for camp in the latest Bushtucker Trial.
Ribeiro immediately volunteered for the challenge, aware that he was the only celebrity who hadn't fought for food.
"I'm doing it no matter what it is," he said. "I prepared myself mentally for today. I'm the only one who hasn't done one to date, so I have first rights no matter what it is."
While Amy Willerton also volunteered to take part in the 'Planks of Peril' trial, the other celebrities decided to send Egan with Ribeiro instead.
When the duo arrived at the Bushtucker clearing, they discovered that they would have to walk along planks raised high in the sky and collect the star hanging above their head - but one of them would be blindfolded and the other would have to guide them.

The I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! campmates had to rank how attractive, famous and hardworking they thought they were in a Dingo Dollar challenge.
David Emanuel and Lucy Pargeter were taking part in the task to win a treat for camp.
The pair had to smother themselves in gunk and feathers and retrieve a pile of eggs from under two ostriches.
They then had to create three lineups as to who was the laziest, the most attractive and most famous celebrity left in camp. The others then had to create the same lineup in the camp.
The next category of the hardest working saw arguments with Joey Essex protesting the camp's decision to put him towards the end. He said: "I work well hard, I work very hard in this jungle. I wash dishes, empty the toilet, I do everything. I am nowhere near last."

I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! star Steve Davis won just three stars after taking part in the 'Snares Rock' Bushtucker Trial.
Davis offered to take part in the challenge after Alfonso Ribeiro decided not to do it, saying: "I think Al's in shutdown mode at the moment. He said, 'No', so I said, 'I'll do one if you want'."
The snooker player told his fellow campmates that he wasn't worried about jungle critters but would be concerned if the challenge involved "climbing up a rock face".
Unfortunately, when he arrived for the Trial, he discovered that he would have to cross a rock face on platforms - some of which moved in and out of the cliff. He had ten minutes to get across, collect a star, return to the start and repeat until he had all ten possible stars.
Before the challenge began, Davis joked: "I'm looking forward to it.

Willerton handed in some banned concealer earlier this week but was disappointed to learn that the other contestants had been discussing it while she was out of camp.
She later turned to Rebecca Adlington to express her sadness, though the Olympic swimmer promised: "They are not saying nasty things apart from the fact they are disappointed in you for not handing it in."
"Well, the guys have said they are," Willerton replied. "The other women snap at me constantly, and you might not have noticed it, but they whisper so much and are making me paranoid, I just think I haven't done anything."
She continued: "I don't feel I can talk to them because they are not upfront with me. It's only me they have an issue...

Cue Willerton breaking down in the Bush Telegraph and blubbing: "I was lying in my hammock and was just thinking of everything, I am really sensitive but this was the first time I've felt really upset by the way someone's been towards me in camp, it all turned into a whirlwind of emotion and I felt really upset with myself because if I have upset someone in camp I really didn't mean to.

Rebecca Adlington is hardly the first star to be exempt from trials on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! - we've seen it plenty of times over the years, but for some reason Rebecca being ruled out has really got people talking.
Rumours have abounded about the reasons Rebecca can't get involved with certain trials - from asthma to claustrophobia to the rumour that she's pregnant (which has now been strongly denied). But when even Phillip Schofield is questioning whether you should be in the jungle, you know this has become a Serious Issue.
On the one hand, there are people saying that Rebecca shouldn't have gone into the jungle if she couldn't participate fully (apparently ignoring the fact that other celebrities have also been ruled exempt for various tasks). On the other, as Rebecca's fiancé and sister have pointed out, it's doctors who rule whether or not...

Kian Egan broke down and wept after a surprise reunion with wife Jodi Albert on I'm a Celebrity last night (November 27).
The former Westlife singer and fellow campmates Steve Davis and Laila Morse were treated to a night of luxury after winning the Halfway Holiday task against David Emmanuel, Rebecca Adlington and Matthew Wright.
The victorious stars were whisked away to an extravagant villa, with Morse remarking as they arrived: "I've got tears in my eyes, it's breathtaking. It just upsets me, in a good way. An overwhelming way."
They were then treated to a shock reunion with their loved ones who emerged from the retreat, with an emotional Egan telling Albert: "Oh my God, I don't believe it. I can't believe it, I love you so much."
He began to sob as he hugged and kissed the ex-Hollyoaks actress, while Davis also started to tear up when he...

Jennifer Lawrence plays a young woman who is not defined by her relationship to men, and who is bringing down the system
All hail Katniss Everdeen of The Hunger Games trilogy. If you are the mother of a pre-teen girl, you will know the whispered relief around these films. "About time. Go!" If you would like your teenage daughter to see something other than the underclass sobbing on a crass talent show, orange twentysomethings Botoxing themselves, or girls who are just "naturally thin" and who giggle when their clothes just drop off, then you will already know about them. If, like me, you simply would like to see a young woman not defined by her relationship to men, crack open the pick 'n' mix.
Clearly I am not alone. Nor is my youngest. Catching Fire, the sequel to The Hunger Games, has had the fourth biggest box office weekend opening in history.
