Meet Alan Halsall

Swapping the Cobbles for Camp, Corrie star Alan Halsall is packing his bags ready for an Outback adventure as part of your I’m A Celebrity… 2024 lineup!

The long-standing soap favourite is excited for viewers to meet the real Alan. ‘It will be nice for people to get to know a bit more about me rather than my character, Tyrone,’ he says.

Alan also revealed that he’s been getting tips from his fellow Corrie actors and I’m A Celeb alumni.

‘I’m very close to Andy Whyment and Jenni McAlpine, who have both done it before, and everyone tells me they had such a great experience.

‘It’s a life experience and I am sure I will learn some new things about myself along the way too.’

So has he gleaned any top tips for tackling those dreaded Bushtucker Trials?

‘I don’t think you can give a great deal of advice about something like this! I watch it every year so I know what to expect.

‘I’m not scared of anything at home but if you were to put 10 snakes on my head, I don’t know how I would feel about that as clearly I’ve never been in that situation before!’

We can take a good guess… *gulps*

While Alan knows it’s going to be tough to be away from his young daughter, he’s hoping to distract himself and bring some laughter into Camp - while doing her and his Corrie crew proud.

‘For such a small person, I’ve got a big personality and I can be quite jokey! I’m hoping people will share my sense of humour. My daughter is 11, so I’m hoping I won’t embarrass her.’

All new I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! starts Sunday 17th November at 9pm on ITV1, STV and ITVX.
