Vernon Kay is a near 50-year-old television and radio presenter from Bolton, Greater Manchester.
At 6'4", he'll do well in the height challenges, like Jessica Plummer.
He is married to BBC Strictly Come Dancing presenter Tess Daly who he has two children with. The couple have been together, in wedlock, since 2003.
Vernon Kay appeared in the very first episode of Hollyoaks on Channel 4 as a background artist but he'll be no extra in this year's I'm A Celebrity.
Speaking of Hollyoaks, Vernon was often affectionately mimicked for his pronunciation of the Serial Drama's name when he presented T4
Alongside Orla O'Rourke, Vernon Kay fronted a short-lived gameshow, also on Channel 4, called "Boys and Girls" which was produced by Chris Evans.
He is probably best known for being the presenter of All Star Family Fortunes on ITV/STV between 2006 and 2015.
During one of the first tasks Vernon told mealworms to "pack it in, will you" when they were landing on him from above.
Keep up with Vernon's progress every night for the next three weeks on ITV/STV with Ant & Dec during I'm A Celebrity.
