I’m A Celebrity’s Oti Mabuse to team up with sister Motsi as her first post-jungle TV project is revealed
HARDWORKING Oti Mabuse is back on the box just a week after leaving the I’m A Celebrity jungle.
Her turn on the celebrity special of Stephen Mulhern's Deal Or No Deal this weekend will be just as nerve-racking as her stay in the Aussie bush.
Oti brought her Strictly Come Dancing sister Motsi Mabuse along for the ride.
The sibling duo head into the hot seat to try and beat the banker and win money for charity.
Also trying their luck will be fellow Strictly judge Craig Revel Horwood, Dancing On Ice judges Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean ice skater Sylvain Longchambon and Bad Education star Layton Williams.
It’s one of four celebrity specials in the second series of the rebooted gameshow and will air this Sunday at 7pm on ITV1 and ITVX.

I’m sure facing the dreaded banker is almost as bad as a stint in the camp dunny.
Crew's sickly feeling
FILMING for Channel 5’s new series of murder mystery hit The Good Ship Murder hit choppy waters when sea sickness in the crew caused chaos.
Former X Factor winner Shayne Ward stars as a former police detective turned cabaret singer, with ex-Corrie co-star Catherine Tyldesley in the hit drama, which returns for a second series in the New Year following a Christmas special.
Shayne told me: “I’ve been OK. I don’t really get seasickness. I quite like the rocking of the ship at night.
“But a few people haven’t got the sea legs. We film everything in Malta and then film the rest of it in one month on the ship. You get a lot of Maltese crew coming onboard and they are just used to being on land.”
The festive episode airs on Channel 5 and My5 next Wednesday at 9pm.
Air we go again on CH4
THERE have now been so many TV shows about air fryers, they could stream a 24-hour fryathon.
Even TV chef Jamie Oliver has entered the fray with his own programme exclusively using one of the gizmos.
But that’s not stopped Channel 5, which has a new show on the gadget in the works.
The broadcaster is hunting for families who want to get into “clean eating” in the new year.
Channel 5 posted online: “Are you in need of health improvement and looking to shake up your eating by road-testing easy and health-boosting air fryer recipes?”
Experts will help the lucky participants to fry their way into 2025.
Or, is it all just a load of hot air?
The Saviour Cometh
NEW drama Saviour, will “reimagine the crime and courtroom genre,” say ITV.
Written by Peter Moffat (BBC’s Silk), the story revolves around medical student, Ben, who goes to a fancy-dress party as a policeman.
But when he’s mistaken for a real cop, things begin to unravel.
