I’m an egomaniac – get me out of here 
I have a confession to make. I watch I’m A Celebrity, get me out of here – and I enjoy it. Right, now that’s off my chest I can turn my bullying, sorry, attention, to Lady C.
Even if you haven’t seen one second of this year’s jungle programme you must have heard of HER.
She’s the Germanic-sounding, shameless, rude and foul-mouthed pensioner who feels the whole world, and Tony Hadley, is against her.
Georgie, as she now likes to be known, says she was bullied right through childhood and suffered so much that she swore “no one would ever bully me again”.
She says entrepreneur Duncan Bannatyne, Spandau Ballet frontman Tony Hadley and TV presenter Yvette Fielding started to bully her and it gradually got “worse and worse”.
Now I don’t know much about her background, just what she’s told the Mail on Sunday, but is it just me or are you, my reader, also sick and tired of yet another person who excuses inexcusable behaviour by blaming it all on their upbringing?
I realise that programmes such as Celebrity are edited heavily to make the most impact in the ratings war but I for one got the impression that we may have a case of pot and kettle and that the three rabbits caught in her headlights acted in a very restrained manner.
She believes that viewers will not have seen the true extent of the plotting against her. But then again, they might not have seen the full extent of her bad-mouthing of and downright rudeness to some of her campmates.
It was interesting that it was only the oldies who grated on her and reacted – not the youngsters. But then maybe that was because the youngsters in camp just decided to keep their heads down. After all, they’d probably read worse on their Twotter account or Friendbook page.
Mind you, Georgie does seem to have a heart. She told the MoS: “I don't care who people are and where they come from. In fact, years ago, I proposed my mechanic for the Royal Enclosure in Ascot."
What a lady.
