Cotton to go in the jungle

OLDHAM actor Antony Cotton is set to pack his bags and head Down Under for this year’s “I’m A Celebrity . . . Get Me Out of Here!” TV show.

Antony (36), who plays barman and knicker factory worker Sean Tully in “Coronation Street”, is poised to join a host of fellow celebrities in the jungle when ITV1 air the show on Sunday.

The Oldham Theatre Workshop actor is said to be setting up camp alongside “The Only Way is Essex” hunk Mark Wright, 80s singer Sinitta, Pineapple Dance’s Louie Spence and comedian Freddie Starr to name a few.

Much-loved Oldham-born entertainer Christopher Biggins was voted King of the Jungle in 2007.
