EMILY Atack has been revealed as an early favourite to win I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here following the show's launch last night.
The Inbetweeners actress proved an instant hit with fans thanks to her hilarious reaction to the skydive and is currently the 3-1 favourite with bookmaker Coral to be crowned Jungle Queen.
A spokesperson for Coral said: "It's early days but punters are already rushing to back Inbetweeners star Emily as quickly as she dived out of that helicopter on tonight's show.
"She's now our favourite to go all the way and be crowned Queen of the Jungle.
John Barrowman (4-1) and James McVey (5-1) are the other leading contenders in the betting.
Sair Khan (25-1) is the rank outsider and has so far attracted less than 5% of bets to win the show.
"Originally we expect Corrie's Sair to prove very popular but people clearly aren't impressed with her and they think she'll be sent packing early," added the spokesperson.
During last night’s show Emily was horrified when she learned she would have to skydive from 12,000 feet to meet the rest of her campmates.
As she headed into the sky with Malique Thompson-Dwywer she couldn’t hide her fear and proceeded to scream the whole way down – before describing the experience as horrendous.
Thanks to her reaction Emily will face the first bushtucker trial of the new series after being chosen by the public.
Emily responded to the news by admitting she has mixed feelings about taking on the first bushtucker trial.
