Swimwear model Emily Scott has arrived in the I'm A Celebrityjungle - and has already caught Mark Wright's roving eye. The blonde Australian has been sent in to the jungle in a bid to spice things up after hopes of a romance between Mark and The Real Hustle's Jessica-Jane Clement were scuppered by news of her recent engagement. And the move appears to be working - with the TOWIE romeo having already suggested a date once they are back in the real world. He later said of her arrival, "I heard someone say 'hello' and I turned around and first I saw blonde hair, then I saw a treasure chest." Jessica-Jane - who had previously complained about the lack of younger people in the jungle this year - was also pleased to see Emily, later heralding the arrival of a new "playmate". And Pat Sharp quickly picked up on Mark's flirtations, calling him a "little tinker" - and commenting on how fair Emily's skin was. Mark jokingly responded that it "makes a change from an Essex girl". As a newcomer Emily was exempt from today's Bushtucker trial - entitled Crude Awakenings - and instead viewers saw Corrie's Anthony Cotton chosen to undertake the challenge in a bid to win meals for the camp.
