In short
Vogue Williams and Joanne McNally recap their time on I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here, mixing jungle stories with mental-health reflections, TV gossip, and personal updates. They also joke about Thumbtack and home projects, then pivot to Christmas plans and Spotify Wrapped listening stats.
Guests/backgrounds
Vogue Williams is a TV personality and former jungle contestant; she describes being “uncensored” on the show and details her anxiety/panic episode. Joanne McNally is a therapist who provides “reset” support during Vogue’s panic and discusses duty of care on reality TV.
Key claims
The jungle budget/trials feel reduced (fewer intricate underground setups; more gagging/quick trials). The production now offers mental-health support. Vogue says she had a panic attack after poor sleep and received help from the show’s psych.
Notable examples
eating “real pig’s brain”; cockroaches/crickets trial; fermented fish/fish eyes liquids; rats/venomous snakes/iguana; Vogue’s leg gouge from a bouncy bridge; discussion of Ruby Wax being eliminated and Bob Dylan being alive.

0:31Vogue Williams:This is a Global Player original podcast.
0:45Vogue Williams:Hello and welcome to My Therapist Goes With Me with me, Vogue Williams, and she, Joanne McNally. She's home.
1:01Well, well, well. Well, well, Wellington. The royal adjacent jungle customer, is how I'm describing it. You're not the queen, but you did very fucking well. You're royal adjacent. Once again, Vogue Williams. Well, I mean... I'm not finished yet. Sorry, sorry, sorry. Has brought great shame to the... No, I'm joking. And to my family and friends. And we are humiliated, mortified, disappointed, appalled. I've been in crisis PR for 48 hours trying to figure out how to handle this situation. I'm only messing. Vogue, you fucking smashed it. Well done. And can I just say, on behalf of all of us, your abs were the main event.
1:50Vogue Williams:Thank you very much. You're welcome. And winning 11 stars in the agility. Sorry, let's not forget the 12 stars I won in my first trial. Sorry, was that not the agility course? no that was the snakes sorry I was like she's really leaning into her Crufts era with the agility course I was like she is I've never seen anything like it my ribs my ribs everything my face oh my god where do we even start now I'd like to say for the interest of our listeners I've already had a private conversation with folk where I got some intimate details about the jungle that we can't publicly say I think I can go I think I can go a bit further than I did with the press.
2:32Vogue Williams:There's nobody here monitoring me. There's no one listening to us. Just remember that. When I first came into the jungle, heavily monitored. Yes. Couple of press people, couple of press people around me. Don't say this, don't say that. Well, that's out the window. We are uncensored. Our favourite piece, our favourite way to be. Like, okay. Is there anything you would like to start out by saying or do you want me to just So I went Dig in with questions I went in I went in late Which probably made it A little bit harder And then when I watched Some of the footage back I was like Oh my god They were a bit annoyed That we'd come in But there's always A couple of late comers And it wasn't my choice To go in late They just kind of chose me And I was thrilled At the time Because obviously I got more time with the kids And I was delighted And I still am delighted Because it just meant I was away for less time Like I was in there I think I left on day 13 and although I was ready to leave obviously I would have stayed longer but Joanne you know what I'm like I was myself in there and the messiness just when I saw the rats when we were told there were rats in camp and I was like please please can we wash the stuff but were the rats put in there on purpose or are they just organically living their lives in there Joanne I was in a jungle rats lived there there were rats there were possums we found a snake that they had to get rid of and they don't let you near them because a lot of them are venomous there was this massive iguana like I'd never seen it so big it was like a metre and a half long climbing up trees and stuff so it was full full jungle like I think I don't think I thought it would be as hard as it was because people are like compared to Bear Grylls and I'm like I think it was harder because Bear Grylls first of all I had no family It was just me So I was like As much as I missed Everyone else at home I didn't miss them As much as I missed them This time round Sorry I know what you mean You had no husband and kids At the time Yeah got it Yeah yeah yeah yeah And I just Amber and Sandra Will be delighted to hear Fuck Amber and Sandra You had absolutely no family When you did I went in an orphan Yeah an orphan child I was an orphan Nobody gave a shit I had no one on the outside Yeah No one on the outside
5:00Vogue Williams:But this I was like It's hard So you land in Australia And I got picked up by somebody I swear I never Well when I say I was looked after I mean I could say I did it for the flights alone To be honest with you But they got me Ground transportation So like you know when you see those people In the buggies and I'm like How do they get those buggies and I thought it was for people who like couldn't get from gate to gate there I am Lady Muck sitting in one of the boogies just flying back are they not were you sitting now I'm always interested to know because I always make eye contact with the people who are on the back of the boogies facing out towards us and they always look a little bit embarrassed did you make eye contact on the way or did you keep your eyes kept the glasses on I had to keep the eyes down I had to keep the eyes down very rock and roll at least you were going at full speed I've seen them kind of creeping along and you're like dude you could have walked it in Dubai airport you get knocked over by a buggy it seems to be your own fault and they just they stop for no one so landed in Brisbane at like 10 o 'clock at night and I got collected and then they take your phone off you and I well didn't bring listen there's many things I've learned in the jungle one of them is I need to stop being such a geek and I need to stop following rules so closely because rules are for losers that's what the rules are for didn't Gillian McKeith mule a load of turmeric in when she went in.
6:25Do you remember she made special knickers for herself and stitched a load of salt, pepper, turmeric, cinnamon loads of spices and all
6:35Vogue Williams:in her crotch. To have a couple of boxes of Maldron salt. My knickers are probably bigger than hers as well so I would have put a couple of boxes in there. I miss salt. But you get in the car they take your phone away. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Reality TV going on like you're going into witness protection is one of the weirdest things about the whole thing. I think a lot of it is quite, like it's mentally tough and it's physically tough because mentally you're, you never know what time it is. You never know where you're going because you're always covered up. So your head's covered when you leave the camp at all.
7:11It's so weird. It's like Guantanamo Bay. Like it's supposed to be just a bit of crack. why do they take themselves so seriously it actually but it kind of adds to it because
7:25Vogue Williams:it makes it that little bit harder because but then again you're kind of like like i just assumed that it would it would i don't know i should have spoken to more people before i went in but anyway you go in but you're eating so little and if i see a bean or a bit of rice again i'll pass away and die. Does this mean the Heinz collab is done and dusted? Well Heinz have been on already they're like we're very sad we're very sad to hear you said you wouldn't eat beans anymore can we send you a package? I was thinking yeah they need to send some apology beans like it's not their fault you were waterboarded with beans all day and night in the jungle and they weren't the Heinz very well very diplomatic there Vogue you were like if they were Heinz I could have eaten them all day.
8:11Hashtag Adam.
8:12Vogue Williams:If they were Heinz, I would have been absolutely delighted with myself. So I have a question. I don't interrupt your flow, but I do need to ask you before you move on. I'd rather you ask me questions because I'm going to forget stuff. Fine. So you said to me that when you landed in Australia, that you still had to keep up the facade, that you were just there for personal or business reasons, that it was nothing to do with Celebrity Jungle and that if you were stopped, you had to say you'd gotten a role in Home and Away. I was either going to say I got a roll in Home and Away or I'm going to swim at sharks or something like that.
8:42Yeah, so you weren't asked that?
8:44Vogue Williams:No, because there was no PAPS at the airport when I landed because I don't think that they knew when we were landing. Got us. So we just went straight to the hotel and then we had three days in the hotel but jeez, the jet lag when you get here. And that I think caused me problems when I went in. So I went in and I couldn't sleep. So the first night I think I slept for like two hours. And you're on all day. now in front of the side you're sleeping so your bed situation is just like just this like you saw the beds they're not great but I actually slept really well towards the end but the first night I went in I only got like a couple of hours sleep the next night I was slightly better but not really and then we went out in a night trial the one where I got all the cockroaches and crickets poured on me cockroaches smell so bad I cannot describe the smell I had a little routine where I would do my show and then I would come home in the evening go back to my hotel order loads of room service and then put on Celeb and watch you gargle pig vagina juice and the gagging Vogue the gagging this is what I've realised about this year's version of The Jungle I was like why does it look so hard this year now obviously I had skin in the game you being the skin so I was obviously watching it through different eyes but then I did a little bit of googling and I don't know if this is true or false this is my opinion I think they've cut the budget on The Jungle and I think they've stopped making that.
10:07Yeah, yeah. Now, I don't mean you guys. I don't mean on the talent. That's not what I mean. I mean, that would be an incredibly cruel way to start this piece. No, but they've cut the budget and they've stopped making those really intricate underground. Remember they used to have all these underground layers and they'd stick you through pipes and all because I'd say they cost a lot of money to make and that's why there was so much of the overground drinking rotten shit. I think it's cheaper to do that. And I think that's why you're all gagging so much.
10:40Vogue Williams:Why they did the drinking one is because they haven't done a live trial in three years. And to try and set up a live trial for everybody to do together, they had to do something that'd be quick. Oh. I see. Okay, I see. What were those liquids? What were they really, I wonder? Because they looked... Everyone, like, I can't... I have nightmares of you and Kelly Brooke gagging in my face. It was gross. Mine. was fermented fish and fish eyes. Shut the fuck up. And actually, I swear to God, and then when I started puking, I was like, Jesus Christ, I can taste it again. And I was like, oh! And then, all day long, when I burped, it was just fish.
11:17Vogue Williams:I was like, oh my God. Disgusting.
11:28That sound could mean a lot of things. And when something's going wrong at home, the hardest part can be figuring out what the problem actually is.

12:01Vogue Williams:I had to leave a shop today because I went shopping and I was like, I swear to God, I think I smell cockroaches. And I had to leave because it's haunting me. The pig brain that I had to eat. Jack said to me, because he really does know everything about everything in the jungle. He was like, that's about 700 calories. And I was like, great. I was like, maybe I won't be hungry. There's no way it was real pig's brain. It was real pig's brain. It was a real brain. Folk I just hope You get a chat show The size of Ricky Lake After this Because my god You fucking deserve it I don't know I'm married Because I don't know If I'd get a husband After it to be honest No Well I don't know The gagging Men probably find that Quite hot There's a lot of photos Of you gagging On the internet now I'd say there's men Happily having a gal With themselves Watching you gag Oh god Sorry I have questions Okay H and Shona Yes Real Or Or Fromance I, you see, I'm trying to be very politically correct in talking about them because I do think that they got on very well but I don't know if it's anything romantic because I don't know if either of them are in that situation to get into anything romantic but What are you suggesting?
13:16Vogue Williams:What are you suggesting, Vogue? I'm not suggesting anything I'm not suggesting anything Romance I'm sure that they will talk about it when they come out but I don't think that there was nothing romantic about them in there. Will I tell you a couple of things that people don't know? Yeah. Tell us some stuff people don't know. Give us the inside scoop. So you have to wash your own clothes. There's like this bath and two people have to sit on a bike and this water flows into the bath. So two people sit on a bike and cycle while somebody else gets the water flowing. So we stopped doing that quite early on.
13:51Vogue Williams:So we were just trying to wash our shit in the shower and you just use washing up soap because you get like washing up soap you get shampoo and conditioner but really bad ones because it has to be like because it's going back into the water system there it has to be really natural natural and then you get your little our worst nightmare natural products can I get something that works please my hair is there was a couple of times I went up so you go up and you ask for it and I'm like any chance could I get some leave-in conditioner a bit of carostase guys if you don't no No. Would you have a nail file?
14:28No. Do you know what actually, someone actually messaged me saying, Vogue's biting her nails in there a lot, is she okay? And I was like, sadly I actually can't communicate with her, but.
14:38Vogue Williams:Well, those people were like, she looks sad. But the thing about it is, you're filmed all day long. There are so many cameras in the camp. And like, I don't walk around smiling all day long, every day, but I was generally quite happy in there. I did have one incident because you know I'm such a like I'm just crazy about my sleep and if I don't sleep I get anxious and that's why I worry so much about my sleep so I didn't sleep that night then we went out and did the trial another night with the cockroaches and then I was like right I'm not going to sleep now tonight I'm not going to sleep and I started having an absolute meltdown like just lying there being like please sleep, please sleep and I had to go up to the BT so it's the Telegraph where you go up and do all the chats and I was like I started like having a panic attack and I was like please and I was like don't show this because everyone will see how mental I am like having a complete like complete I couldn't control it like I just went into full panic mode and they're actually so nice when that happens because they're like you're okay it's fine don't worry like and they're trying to like just talk you through it and stuff like that and then the next day I was like I need to talk to Sandra who is the psych oh so she because i was so panicked that night because i just my anxiety just then hit like 90 and i was like i just need to like i have to get rid of this this is really bad blah blah blah went and spoke to her and then i and she just completely i was like do you do therapy in london because she was so good and she just completely like reset me and then like for that whole day i was like this i'm actually totally fine now i don't know what she did but just the way she kind of talked me through loads of stuff and and like i was only talking to her for about half an hour and i just was like okay reset panic stations over and i didn't really have really bad anxiety i like i like that they have a duty of care now on reality tv there was a time where you would just be left flipping and flopping and nothing and no one would have given a shit like do you remember back do you remember like when they didn't there was no kind of mental health help on these shows.
16:40I watched Kinga shove a wine bottle up herself in Big Brother. And no one stepped in at any point and went Kinga. I was only thinking about that like two weeks ago. I swear to God. Are you sure this is your best foot forward? No one said a thing.
16:57Vogue Williams:Sorry, not only did they not say anything, they aired it. Of course they aired it. Now I'd like to think if you'd kind of started behaving that way, that by the time you got up to the top of the label, they would have been like, Well, we're going to interrupt here and say... Put the toothbrush down. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Put the toothpaste down, please. No, it had to be something larger and more absurd. Well, we had this little toothbrush container as well, so that probably could have worked. But there are rules in the jungle. One of the rules would be you're not allowed to paw away at yourself. Like, you can't just be under your covers, like, having a guy.
17:31I couldn't think of anything worse. Like, why would you? Like, what are you going in there for, like, four days? Like, get your shit together. like if I if you I no come on now we can all contain ourselves unless you're aroused by the fucking fowl and the snakes you'd be grand and even the fact that actually no I've completely changed my mind you should be entitled to do that if you want to relax how can I help you sleep without having a pack of dog I mean
17:56Vogue Williams:just sitting there and everyone around me like do you think that's fair and everyone else when you're having a little go yourself in the jungle but you're in Love Island they're riding each other in the beds well they don't like that in the jungle there's no riding in the jungle okay Joanne so that's why I said when they said would Joanne do it I said no she wouldn't because she likes riding in the jungle I do indeed I'm an outdoor gal I was in the skates for years I didn't ride indoors for the first 10 years of my sexual life and so is your right and as is my right yeah I was like unless I'm touching grass it's not happening pal I need to feel granted well I did I did a press call because I was well I was I added an arena while you were while you were relaxing I don't know while you were relaxing in the jungle Vogue oh yeah really relaxing yeah okay you added an arena I did a press call for the day in the three arena and I was speaking to the evokes and the goss and the herd buddies and stuff and you know these rooms you go in and you're kind of doing like back to back interviews and it started and there was obviously a lot of chat about you because you were in the jungle at the time and the start the first interview they were asking me would I do it and I said no but by the time I got to the end of the table I was like I'd love to do it I've changed my mind completely because I talked myself into doing it but then the more I watched of you I said do you know what I actually don't think I would even though I do think of myself as an ex-scout I don't think I would Yeah when I was in there I said Joanne this isn't for Joanne I did think that on numerous occasions I was like she just wouldn't like this you like your comforts a lot and I like my comforts a lot but you miss so many things in there and the food is like Like it doesn't taste like anything.
19:36Vogue Williams:So even when you get one of those meals, like, I don't know, kangaroo arse, like it's just, you kind of wish it would just taste like something, just anything. But it's all just like we got cabbage once and we were like, oh my God, that actually tastes like something. It was such a treat. Anyone else, was anyone in there not getting on? Was there anything scrapping? Now I didn't see any scrapping, but I did hear some whispers amongst amongst I can't say who I'm not saying who but there were a couple of people but it was only like it's little words that would seem like big words in there do you know what I mean like oh well he told me not to do that or she was like this to me and like there was only a couple of a couple of things like that but like it never was anything that would upset the camp I think everybody was just like kind of really cool and even the thing with the cup with me and Ginge like I think that that was that wasn't like as big as it was I don't think on TV it was just like come on just like do the washing up that's your chore you have to do that and I was a chore whore so I did all the chores because I actually really enjoyed doing them but I'm a neat freak and you can't really be a neat freak in the jungle also you're trying to kill time in there which you know what I mean yeah
20:53remember when I said I put on an arena
20:55Vogue Williams:yeah yeah December 12th 2026 that's also very important it is not 2025 it is 2026 imagine all the people that are just going to show up in 2025 they're going to show up it doesn't matter it doesn't matter what you say here I'm going to be there on December 6th 2025 it's December 12th 12th well I don't know who's on well I just set up camp just set up camp I think I said I think it was I thought it was your man Dylan what's his face what's your man's name Bob Dylan he's doing the rounds he's on the he's on the Bob Dylan's dead
21:33Hold on, let's fact check this immediately Who the fuck? Bob Dylan is dead
21:39Vogue Williams:Like ages ago he died He's still alive He's alive
21:49You're like me with David Attenborough I keep thinking David Attenborough is passing away Well why does he have a movie about him?
21:55Vogue Williams:I thought that was because he was dead Did you think he was dead? Dylan or Villain Dylan Oh my god No he's still alive Why does everyone think he's dead Hold on a second now Louisa just goes behind me Bob Marley's dead We know that Or is he It's Bob It's Bob Dylan Bob Dylan has been on tour Behind me For the last three months Oh my god Yeah and he is And he's So he was on the He was on in the I &A Sea In Killarney After the night after I was on And apparently He doesn't like Come into the house Like he doesn't You know the way we'd be like backstage in the green room in the dressing room milling around blah blah blah doing sound checks He does nothing He walks from his tour bus in the side entrance onto the stage does his bits and bobs back onto the bus and he's gone Mad is it?
22:42Vogue Williams:I need to just reset for a second because that is really shocking We're sorry to break the news to you but Bob Dylan is alive I hope you're okay Joanne dead years not just recently dead dead alone sorry for your gain as opposed to sorry for your loss well I'm looking forward to the gig I told he was due December 12th this year and I was like well if he rings in sick I'll go in and play to his audience which I'm sure they would be absolutely delighted but I don't know who's in on the 12th but someone is anyway I'm next year 2026 oh my god I must go and see him now I have to go and see him wait until Neil Neil's a big fan I'd be delighted to hear his boobs because he's been resuscitated I don't know Neil he's not dead

27:07Yeah you have to fly out at the start you have to be there when you go in because you don't know at what point you're going to come out and you have to be there the whole time and that's why a lot of these people their management end up meeting them because A we're usually best friends with their management anyway let's be real and two no that doesn't come after A B they have to have the freedom to work from out there now obviously I would have loved to have been on the bridge I'm on tour Amber would have loved to have been on the bridge she has an actual job do you know what I mean all my friends
27:36Vogue Williams:all my friends have jobs or kids so nobody can come out and it's two weeks on your own so it's two weeks on your own now it is a lovely hotel and everything like that but you're on your own and you're just kind of waiting so I actually couldn't ask anyone and poor Louisa she kind of had to do it She's here with me now. She's desperate to go off. I drunkly texted Louisa one night because I was having an emotional moment. I was like, when's the bridge? I'll go. I'll fly. I'll do a 24-hour turnaround and I'll be back in time for the show in Castle Bar. And she's like, we don't know, do you mind? We don't know when she's coming out.
28:11And it's, you know, she's disabled.
28:16Have we covered all our jungle business?
28:18Vogue Williams:I think we've covered all the jungle business. Oh, one thing. So when you come out, you have to do interviews. I never really like saying stuff like when something is misprinted. I know. Oh, it's a nightmare. But not once ever did I say that I blamed the fact that the Irish couldn't vote. I was asked a question and the question was, do you think the fact that the Irish couldn't vote caused you a problem? and I said, well, I wouldn't really know. Like, I don't know any different to what the way the show was. I knew what the show was when I was going in. And then they put that as the headline, the journalist's question as the headline, like I'd said it, and I hadn't said it, and they wouldn't take it down.
29:02Vogue Williams:So I would just like to clear that up. I am in no way a sore loser. But it was, I mean, it is, it does, you know, have an impact for sure. If your own country can't get behind you, it's racist. literally the definition of racism just so you know I did three shows in Belfast while you were relaxing in the jungle in the Waterfront Hall and on two of them I asked them to vote for you the third one I didn't because they were a bit sleepy you didn't do for the third one that's why I'm out that's your fault thanks a lot for nothing you couldn't wait till I got it you just couldn't let me have my moment I tried to rally Northern Ireland folk I tried to organise a bus to get all the women from Dublin to drive up to Belfast so we could go in the piss for the day in Belfast and drive back down.
29:49I did my best. You did a very good job
29:52Vogue Williams:and I loved your letter. Oh, you liked my letter. Yeah, yeah. I was thinking, there was a moment in time where I was like, maybe they will read out my letter. You know, bit of crack. And then when I saw your emotional reaction to hearing Spawn's voice, I was like, can you imagine how upset she would have been if they'd actually played mine over her whole sentence? Honestly, I was like, I wonder, I wonder who's going to write me the letter and then for a brief moment because I was so desperate to hear how the kids were and how Sven he was for a brief moment I was like what if they've gotten Joanne to write one and she won't even mention them and I won't know how anyone is.
30:27We're so lucky they went with your husband because I would have been dying to have my letter read out and then I would have had to have watched you sob with sadness with every line What about the kids Joanne tell me about the kids thank you to everyone who has tagged us in your Spotify rap so far we really appreciate it we love them it's great to be involved thank you I just accidentally shared my listening age podcast well no I intentionally shared my listening age
30:59Vogue Williams:oh I saw this podcast when I was like oh great no therapist for us there not that you listen well I don't listen to myself I'm not a megalomaniac well my listening age I don't know how to take this I'm a 42 year old woman my listening age according to Spotify is 21 John your music taste is like I've never I know I've walked into your apartment before and I was like what is she what is she listening to but I don't I'm not a big muse out but my podcast ratings were like I think that's just my most recent ones because I only listen to those series but those two series Noble and Wisecrack I only just listen to them.
31:40Like I've listened to loads of podcast series during the year. I listened to Sea of Lies, which is a true crime one, which I loved. And that had like 12 episodes. I don't really know how they gauge it.
31:50Vogue Williams:Guess what my listening age is? 70. 50. Oh yeah, that makes sense. It doesn't make sense because my top song was Enya Echoes in Rain because I went through a real like bad phase of that where I could not stop listening to it. And then this is Halloween, but that is... that's because of the kids but like a lot of it's because of the kids My mate just texted me saying her listening age is 83 What? She must be a big Bob Dylan fan Big Bob Dylan fan RIP Bob God love you Did you know Vogue killed you off years ago Bob? That's how rumours start You'd be devastated to hear the news oh my so and this is this again i think this is like my most recent my my do you have your listening hours because mine is always unusually high but i don't go anywhere without listening to music i constantly have music in my ears so i can understand why mine is what it is my audio book oh the one on my top is deadly silence do you remember the one by jackaline Connolly that I listen to which I've been telling everyone about I thoroughly enjoyed it even though it's kind of incredible.
33:08Tell me what are your listening
33:08Vogue Williams:hours? Did you do listening hours? How do I get into it again? Go on to Spotify and go into Spotify Wrapped Spotify Wrapped yeah 2025 and music stories okay. Look for your music your listening hours. Minutes listened. Okay go on I think they're I think they're adding it up now because nothing's happening
33:3620 ,298
33:39Vogue Williams:You're going to think I'm a psycho Mine is
33:46Vogue Williams:174 ,292 I listen to music all the time I can't stop I also listen to white noise at night actually I listen to white noise at night Oh that's where That's probably where you're cracking a lot of that up then Yeah actually yeah that is I did think it was like 121 days I'm like I'm sure I take some time off During the day 121 days I know I always listen to music though I do I don't like going anywhere alone That's a lot of time out of your own thoughts for a play I'm never in this head on my own It's never just me See I'd say my YouTube listening is, you know that I listen to these weird documentaries to help me fall asleep.
34:30So I think I'm clocking up a lot of time on YouTube, I would say. But yeah, I'm not a muse-out. I'm not a muse-out. I like voices. I like stories and stuff. I'm not big into music, which is...
34:42Vogue Williams:I'm a big music fan and I'm also really into my books. I'm already back on the books and stuff. What did you miss most? What did you miss most in the jungle? My literature. Vogue invented books. Did you hear the news? Foginventure books God it's so nice to be back I feel like I'm in real life The books She loves a bit of book chat I absolutely do I can't get enough of the learning
35:13Hey It's your ceiling vent So I'm dripping Could be the rain Could be the upstairs bathroom Yikes You could hire the guy your neighbour recommended but I'm pretty sure that's just his cousin.

I am dying for Christmas I've never been so excited I don't know why I feel like it hasn't been Christmas for four years even though I know it's every year but I am buzzing Are you finished working there for a little while? I'm finished on the no I'm finished on the 12th Pat's I'm going to help Pat put up her Christmas stick later
36:13We're going to get the stick down wrap the tree wrap the lights around it hey presto Christmas has arrived in Pat's
36:19Vogue Williams:The day's gone that's it the whole day's gone The day will be gone. We'll have the mince pies out. Okay, well, I'm going now. It's bedtime for me. I'm going to be home soon. I'll be able to see you next week. And I'm excited for it. We should do one in studio before Christmas. Also, we need to have a Christmas party. I don't know if I want to have a Christmas party before Christmas because remember we did it before Christmas last time and I got the flu. I can't risk that. If I'm going to get the flu, I'd rather do it in January. Sorry, you had the flu when we recorded the thing. Do you remember I was in a boob tube And you were wearing like three duffel coats And we didn't suspect that there was anything wrong with you at all I was just like why is she not cold You were like shivering at the corner It was desperate There's a flu going around, Covid is back It's all go, it is all go I got the flu jab, don't hate me I know some people don't like jabs But I got it and I feel very comfortable Going out and about now So I'm protected as much as I can be Everyone, thank you by the way for everyone being so sound when I was in the jungle I'm still getting messages now and I'm like it's actually it's because you do have that fear you're like oh my god I hope everyone likes me when I go out I was even like I hope my family still love me I'm out of bed my mom would you do it again?
37:34Vogue Williams:would you do it again? I would yeah I would what hmm I don't know if I believe you well do you know what I really I'm glad I had the experience I think it was really it was it was it was like it was like an endurance test in a kind of way it was really brilliant i'd love to go back and do it again now like just go like reverse time and go and do it again now yeah yeah yeah i mean because i wouldn't want to not do it yeah i wouldn't want to not do it because it is such a great experience and everyone was so nice like there's just everyone there's 700 people that work on the crew and there's so many nice people and you're so well looked after and and like I've just made loads of nice friends it's great Who do you think will win?
38:25Vogue Williams:H.O.G. is going to win Okay Well now in fairness I didn't call Ruby coming out today Really? Yeah Didn't call that at all Sorry No offence to Martin Kemp but how has he survived over Ruby Wax. Has he even done a trial yet? What the fuck did you just say? How did he survive over Ruby Wax? Excuse me, what about me, Joanne? You forgot about me pretty quickly. Well, sorry, it did feel like Ruby was going to get to the final. I thought Ruby was going to be in the final. Yeah, I definitely thought Ruby was going to be in the final. He's a really gentle man, but he's quiet. Yeah. Come here, riddle me this.
39:06What happened to your leg?
39:08Vogue Williams:Okay, so when we were in the jungle, We were bored, so we were always making up games. And when we got to go out, like when you're going to do a trial or a challenge, you had to cross these bridges. And the bridges were quite bouncy, and they were just full metal bridges with, like, netting along the side. And so we were racing ourselves to try and see if we could get our time down. And someone had got 36 seconds, so I was like, I'm going to run. And so I basically ran, and then I tripped and fell on the bridge, and I took a big gouge out of my knee. But then when I crossed, there was a doctor there, and I went straight to the trial.
39:40Vogue Williams:Straight to the trial Like a trooper Yeah like a trooper Hardcore You'd be great in the military No I don't Maybe say that to the winner of the show No I'm saying it to you You make a bed like a soldier You know what I mean You're well trained You run a tight ship You're military I think yeah I would like that but I think I prefer this job so I'll stay here maybe. Yeah. I think so. Everyone, see you later. Thanks a million. Joanne, I love you so much. I love you so much. Welcome home. To Australia. You know what I mean. I'll be home next week. Did you plug my Australian tour in the jungle? I didn't hear any word of it.
40:29Vogue Williams:Joanne, I've been non-stop flyering out there. I'm in the Gold Coast and I'm like flyering up and down the whole time. Everyone gets up at half five in the morning and I'm out there before them at five o 'clock with a box of flyers. Okay. I know you're coming. Okay. Okay.
