Dragon Jen’s fiery start IS IT WALL OVER FOR BIG LIAR STEVEN? Scarlett gets presenting tips from TV queen

-

There’s no love lost between the Dragons’ Den panel as newcomer Jenny Campbell has already found out.

She and fellow newbie Tej Lalvani have joined regular Dragons Deborah Meaden, Peter Jones and Touker Suleyman.

Ex-banker Jenny, 55, said: “I’ve made some investment­s, said ‘I’m out’ quite a lot and had a few sparring matches with the other Dragons.”

Dragons’ Den returns to BBC2 next Sunday at 8pm.

Prince Andrew’s ex Koo Stark is tipped to appear on this year’s I’m a Celeb. She was with the Duke of York for 18 months in the Eighties. Other stars who could be heading Down Under include bad boy footballer Joey Barton, footie pundit Stan Collymore and ex rugby ace Ben Cohen. Looks like the walls are closing in on Steven Beale as his lies continue to catch up with him on EastEnders.

His attempt to blackmail Max Branning (far left, with Steven) over his affair backfires.

He finds himself agreeing to take on a risky task for Max – helping him to get rid of some awkward tenants.

It’s all to avoid Max, played by Jake Wood, revealing the truth to Steven’s girlfriend Lauren that his claim to be suffering from a brain tumour is a lie. Feeling trapped, Steven decides he wants to tell Lauren the truth. But will he go ahead with it?

It was revealed this week that Aaron Sidwell, who plays Steven, is leaving the BBC soap this autumn.

EastEnders continues tomorrow at 8pm. Gorgeous Gemma Atkinson’s Emmerdale mates are backing their girl to go all the way on Strictly Come Dancing.

They say Gemma (below) can certainly handle the pressure – and her dance partner.

Chris Bisson, who plays Jai Sharma in the popular ITV soap, predicts it will be Gemma flexing her muscles and doing the big lifts.

Chris (right) said: “Whoever gets Gemma is going to have to be really strong because she’s so tough she’ll be spinning him around. She’s going to have to get one of the really macho dancers because Gemma is hard as nails!”

Anthony Quinlan, who plays Pete Barton, agrees, saying: “I think she’s absolutely going to smash it.”

He added: “I’d love to do something like Strictly or I’m a Celeb. Never say never.”
