Scarlett Moffatt was favourite to present I'm A Celeb with Declan Donnelly in Ant McPartlin's abscence

Standing in for the 'Ant' half of Ant and Dec is a tough job, but TV fans thought former Gogglebox star and I'm A Celeb jungle queen Scarlett would do a cracking job at it.

It's now been revealed that Scarlett - who has previously helped the Geordie presenters out on Saturday Night Takeaway - will be presenting spin off show instead, Extra Camp. She will be presenting alongside former Eastenders star Joe Swash and comedian Joel Dommett.

This is great news, but it also means that Scarlett WON'T be replacing Ant McPartlin after it was announced he won't be returning to present the show this year due to addiction recovery.

Georgia Steel and Ellie Brown

Probably the most dramatic night in the Love Island 2018 villa, hell broke loose when Georgia Steel returned from a date with Jack Fowler. Jack told his then-girlfriend Laura Anderson (who was also Georgia's BFF) that Georgia had pulled him in for a kiss but Georgia 100% denied this to Laura. She continued to lie about the kiss all night (well, for the whole series actually) but Ellie Brown was having none of it. She shouted at Georgia and called her out for always banging on about how 'loyal' she is. The final blow that silenced everyone was when Ellie called Georgia an 'ugly c**t'. YIKES. Even Ellie's boyfriend Charlie Brake said she went too far. The pair never fully recovered their friendship and Georgia said Ellie needed to go and 'wash her mouth out'. It's worth mentioning that Georgia has since 'fessed up to the kiss and apologised to Laura.

Malia was on the island for mere HOURS before going into a violent rage and being booted off the show. Love rival Malia spilt a drink down her leg when Malia retaliated with pushing, shoving and a whole lotta swearing. Well that's one way to make a first impression in front of people.

Following a dispute from earlier in the week, the TOWIE girls exchanged sharp words at a girls night in. Gemma stole the argument with the now classic line: "I'm 34-years-old I've earned my diva-ship".

Securing her reputation as Queen of Confrontations, Gemma Collins turned her sharp tongue to BFF Bobby Norris. Poor Bob told Gemma she was 'throwing him under a bus' for dragging him into an argument between her and Lauren Pope. It ended with Gemma throwing a drink in his face.

The TOWIE boys sure know how to celebrate St Paddy's Day. Diags accused James of getting up to no good behind his girlfriend Georgia Kousoulou's back and an explosive argument ensued.

Megan McKenna wasn't let out of the diary room because she was JUST SO ANGRY. The Ex on the Beach star had had enough of her fellow housemates, specifically Tiffany Pollard and John Partridge.

The WHOLE house in Big Brother 5

Who could EVER forget Fight Night? The original Big Brother bust-up happened in season 5. Pretty much the whole house was divided and involved - with Victor Ebuwa and Emma Greenwood throwing trays at each other. It was IN-SANE.

Jemma was kicked off Ex on the Beach after this vicious physical fight with Kayleigh. It was clear the girls never got on and Kayleigh grew jealous of Jemma's relationship with her ex, Ashley Cain.

Perhaps one of the classiest cat fights to grace our TV screens, Millie Macintosh raised a glass and announced Hugo's infidelities with her BFF Rosie Fortiscue. She then met up wth Hugo and gave him a well deserved (and very expensive) drink in the face. And now the pair are about to get engaged!

We applaud Camilla for giving clueless Jonny a lesson in feminism. When he asked her if she was a feminist, she replied: "Shouldn't we all be feminists? Surely you believe in equality?" Well said, Camilla.

It was actually quite sad to see this bromance hit rocky waters. The girl who got between them (it's always over a girl, right?!) was Lucy Watson. We were glad to see that they quickly reconciled.

Does this mean Dec will be going it alone?

The popular presenter did a fine job when Ant had to drop out of Saturday Night Takeaway earlier this year following the star being charged for drink driving.

A source has now told The Sun: "Bosses still don’t know if they will replace Ant, but it’s equally possible that Dec will do it on his own.

“He showed just how competent he is solo when he did Takeaway and BGT earlier in the year.”

Meanwhile, as Scarlett prepares to present Extra Camp later this year, she's been living her best life on a holiday in Las Vegas.
