Guest guest Posted September 1, 2002 Report Share Posted September 1, 2002 Did anyone watch " I'm a Celebrity Get me out of here " . I wasn't going to watch this programme, but a friend mentioned that Uri Geller was taking part, and as it was to do with being on one of the islands off Australia I thought I would watch it. The celebrities are doing this for charity whilst they are on the island. They are each given a task to complete to earn meals for all of them for the next day. Which celeb and what task they have to do is voted on by the viewers. One celeb had insects dropped all over her - poor insects!. Anyway, guess what! Uri Geller is voted on to eat insects and grubs - some dead - some alive!. He says he has to think hard about this, but eventually says he will do it!. Tony Blackburn one of the other celebs said to Uri Geller how could he do it - surely his vegetarian principles would prevent him from taking on the task, and that he himself would lose respect for Uri if he did - but no, Uri goes ahead feeling so responsible for getting food for the others for the next day. He has to do it for them! I thought to myself watching this programme - surely the other celebs are not going to die of starvation if they don't get their meal for that day. They would surely respect his principles. Tony Blackburn for one I think lost respect for Uri, especially as Uri himself said that he had been a vegetarian for " 30 years " . Has he not learnt anything about being a vegetarian in that time. I think not!!! Geraldine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
