But there is one show in particular which is off the cards for the broadcaster. Speaking on the Rosebud with Gyles Brandreth podcast Piers revealed that he turned down a huge reality TV show just last week. Speaking on the latest episode of the pod he says of his parents: 'One thing they always said to me was 'Don't ever do the jungle, I'm A Celebrity', I always remember this and last week I got a call from ITV 'Could we tempt you to do the jungle?' 'And I went 'There's actually not enough money at ITV to get me to go in that jungle because my parents would disown me'. That for them was the red line. ' 'So you won't ever see me munching kangaroo testicles, I'm afraid.' I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here sees a star-studded line-up swap their luxurious lifestyle for Bushtucker trials in the Australian jungle. The famous faces are put through trials and torment as they battle it out to become Queen or King of the jungle. Back in 2022 Piers asked for £5million to do the famous TV show fronted by comedy duo Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly. Kanye West 'storms off' during Piers Morgan interview after chat with sunglasses-clad rapper 'didn't go well' He was previously asked if he was planning to follow in Matt Hancock's footsteps who shocked the nation when appeared on the show in 2022. Piers told The Sun at its Who Cares Wins awards: "I would rather shoot myself slowly with a slow moving bullet that corroded through every bone in my body before it finished me off than go into the jungle with people like Matt Hancock. "My parents have actually said to me they would put up with anything - and I've put them through a lot - but not the jungle. "It's a step too far. That's their red line. I'd get disowned." Piers fuelled rumours he'd finally been persuaded to sign up to the gruelling reality show on X (formerly known as Twitter). He tweeted: "Like I said, £5million and I'll come and munch kangaroo testicles. Not a penny less." 5 Back in 2022 Piers Morgan asked for £5million to do famous TV show I'm A Celeb Credit: Dan Charity 5 Piers Morgan appeared on Celebrity Apprentice in 2008 which is fronted by Donald Trump

Inside this year's National Television Awards as Joel Dommett teases HUGE 30th birthday event with a surprise opening
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) JOEL DOMMETT will celebrate the National Television Awards' 30th birthday with a riotous party – which he hopes is far better than his own milestone bash. Returning as host of the annual ceremony for the fifth time, Joel, 39, has revealed big plans to mark the anniversary. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Joel Dommett is back to host the National Television Awards for the fifth time Credit: ITV 5 This year's categories He told The Sun: 'It's early days, so we are very much in the 'ideas' phase. "But I really wanna do something really great for the start. 'Because it's the 30th year, we plan to celebrate not just the great telly that's happened this year, but also the stuff that's happened over the past 30 years. 'My own 30th was a disaster. "I decided to do an emo-themed party because I liked nu-metal music when I was a kid and I invited some people over to my house in Peckham. 'Because I was just a stand-up comedian at the time, I did it on a Sunday because all my friends were comedians and we all worked on Saturday and Friday. 'But I didn't really think about the fact that all of my neighbours work the next day… so we just had loads of complaints and I shut it down really early and then we just had some tea.' At least Joel is guaranteed a good time this September 10, when he presides over the ceremony at London's O2. He said: 'I say this every year, but I feel like TV is better than it's ever been. It feels really exciting, feels really competitive. 'There's a lot of really big shows and a lot of them are British. Joel Dommett takes swipe at Bradley Walsh's son and Stephen Mulhern in hilarious opening number "The Traitors has made such a huge impact, and shows like Rivals and Adolescence.' Last week's TV Bafta awards overlooked some viewers' favourites such as Gavin & Stacey and The Traitors. Joel added: 'There's certainly a place for the things like the Baftas, that are nominated for by panels, but I think it's great the NTAs are there as a public-based forum. 'You can't really argue because it's voted for by the people.' Joel is up for TV Presenter for his work on The Masked Singer, but doesn't hold out much hope. He said with a laugh: 'There's no point in me getting competitive because I'm never going make the shortlist. "Ant and Dec always win. 'But how amazing is it that we've got two guys who have been on telly that long and who are still delivering incredible television? 'I can't see their reign ending anytime soon.' 5 Ant and Dec could take home the TV Presenter award for a 24th time Credit: Rex 5 Claudia Winkleman's The Traitors faces tough competition in the Reality Competition category Credit: BBC 5 I'm A Celebrity will battle The Traitors for best Reality Competition Credit: ITV Unlock even more award-winning articles as The Sun launches brand new membership programme - Sun Club.

In a tragic turn of events, Julie chose to end her own life after saying a slew of personal goodbyes to her nearest and dearest. She passed away by a lake after organising her own perfect final day.

Advertisement Read More on Corrie Now, fans think that Julie's sad death could trigger an unexpected version of events for Eileen. With Eileen having been alone with Julie at the time of her death, and Julie still having a life expectancy of a few months, fans have theorised that Eileen could be seen as complicit in her death. Viewer suggestions imply that Eileen could even find herself facing jail for the MURDER of her own sister. With Sue set to depart from the soap like Katy in the next few weeks, fans think this is a surefire sign that Eileen will be jailed. Advertisement Most read in Soaps With her son Jason Grimshaw, played by Thailand to avoid being imprisoned.
