Flirty Stanley Johnson can’t take his eyes off Georgia Toff during I’m A Celebrity party
FLIRTY Stanley Johnson raised eyebrows amongst celebrities and crew during the first filming session of I’m A Celebrity, thanks to his attitude towards sexy Georgia Toffolo.

And his cheeky approach prompted some behind the scenes to label him “a bit of a dinosaur”, and sparked concerns he will put his foot in it once the show hits screens.
A source on set explained: “Everyone was getting to know each other, making polite chat and enjoying themselves — but Stanley made a bit of a beeline for Georgia and a few of the other celebs passed comment about it.
“No doubt it was meant with the very best of intentions on his part, but Stanley’s approach is from another era. He wasn’t very subtle about it.
“What he thinks is charming struck a few of the others as a bit leery –he’s probably just a bit of a dinosaur.

"But a few of the celebs and crew joked afterwards that they think Stanley could well put his foot in it on screen.
“Obviously it’s a mixture of live TV and pre-recorded highlights, so he’ll have to be careful especially in this day and age.”
Stanley has been hailed by many as the biggest shock signing of the series, and he admitted he has kept his foreign secretary son and the rest of his children totally in the dark about his plans to enter the ITV jungle.
And the 77-year-old dad-of-six has insisted he is ready to throw himself fully into the reality show experience, vowing to tackle the notorious Bushtucker Trials enthusiastically.
He said: “Witchetty grubs hold no fears for me. I am ready to confront them.

“As for penises and testicles of kangaroos and crocodiles, all I can say is, if you were brought up on a farm on Exmoor, then you will know that masses and masses of lambs’ fry is what you end up with after you’ve castrated the lambs.
“So I don’t know that a lamb’s testicle is necessarily different from a kangaroo’s testicle. Lambs’ testicles taste a bit like sweetbread.”
