I’m A Celeb will be won by most popular contestant ever in show’s history, claim bookies

Is it in the bag?

A large majority of the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! viewers had no clue who Georgia Toffolo was before she began her jungle journey.

But the Made In Chelsea star quickly won over fans of the show in their millions.

It’s been pretty impossible not to be charmed by her relentlessly sunny disposition, have-a-go attitude to trials and no-nonsense stance among her fellow campmates when they’ve pushed her too far.

Not only is the posh, er, Toff, bookies’ favourite to be crowned Queen at the end of tonight’s show, their odds suggest that she’s the most popular contestant in the series’ history.

Now, that’s not bad going when you consider the ITV favourite has featured national treasures such as Christopher Biggins, Tony Blackburn and Joe Pasquale.

After last night’s show the odds stood as follows: 1/12 Georgia Toffolo; 9/1 Iain Lee; 16/1 Jamie Lomas.

“There is no way that Toff can lose this one,” said William Hill spokesman Joe Crilly. “She has been favourite since day one.”

Of course, bookies don’t always call it correctly and the crown is still to play for between Toff, Iain Lee and Jamie Lomas.

Many viewers were convinced it would be a final featuring Jennie McAlpine, rather than Jamie, so there could be some surprises (although we hope not!)…
