Picture the scene: you’re probably the least known of a list of pretty anonymous “celebrities” on the latest series of I’m A Celebrity, you ask your agent how you can use the show to get attention on you and thereby up your profile.

And if you are only pretending to be terrified, yet are seen to face your fears and get through, you’ll go on one of those reality show journeys that can see you crowned King Of The Castle!
