Snooker star Jimmy White potted five stars for the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! camp, in a Bushtucker Trial which saw him overcome his fear of heights.

Dressed in tight red Lycra, Jimmy was told he would have to climb along high wire routes to collect hanging stars.

As he negotiated the walkways, with the hammer provided, he had to smash the stars to release ribbons inside.

Each star was worth one meal for camp and there were nine in total but the stars were on a timer and would drop to the valley below if he did not smash them in time.

Jimmy won a total of five stars, meaning five meals for his jungle camp mates.

Meanwhile, veteran Hollywood star George Hamilton gave the men some tips on keeping women happy.

He advised: "Be a little bit critical, you know. When a woman gets dressed for dinner, you are about to go out, and you should always say 'Just take one little thing off - maybe the earrings', and then she'll put the bracelet on, the necklace and you get the whole fashion show."
