I'm A Celebrity: Jenny finishes third!

Jenny Eclair has finished in third place in I'm A Celebrity... 2010, leaving Shaun Ryder and Stacey Solomon to battle it out in Saturday's final. The comedienne - who was one of the later arrivals along with Dom Joly - spent 16 days in the jungle before receiving the lowest number of votes from the public on Friday evening's show. However she admitted afterwards she was "hugely relieved" to have been voted out. "I didn't have another day in me," she told Ant and Dec afterwards. "I think there's only so many days a woman can wear a pair of pants and I think I was pushing it." Jenny added that she could not believe she had done so well on the show. "I put money on me coming tenth," she said. "I was such a last minute replacement or reserve bench that I never had any time to prepare or go to the gym, as you can see. Either Shaun or Stacey will now be crowned king or queen of the jungle in the final, which will be screened on Saturday night. Stacey is the hot favourite to take the title, with Ladbrokes offering odds of 1-16 on the Essex girl being named winner. "Our punters reckon she is already Queen of the Jungle," said spokesman Alex Donohue.
