Peter Hook has admitted he is racking up his phone bill - by voting for Shaun Ryder in I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

The New Order musician is backing his fellow Mancunian to take part in the bushtucker trials on the ITV show.

"The phone was red hot as I voted for him to take part in that trial - it's costing me a fortune!" he admitted.

Peter, who will be running the Great Manchester Run next year, reckons Shaun hasn't done himself any harm by appearing on the programme.

"He's doing good. I hope he does as Bez did with Celebrity Big Brother and he pulls it off. I think he has come across really well so far. It's early days yet - they tend to crack around days four and five - but it's enjoyable and I love seeing him there," he said.

"I love seeing his Manc. He's a proper Manc and you cannot doubt that. He's flying the flag for Manchester and I'm right behind him."

Peter revealed he turned down Celebrity Big Brother, only to hand the opportunity over to Happy Mondays' Mark 'Bez' Berry.

"I got offered Celebrity Big Brother and I passed it onto Bez because I couldn't do it at the time," he said.

"He made a fortune off it. Lost it all to the taxman, but he did good. I haven't been offered this ."

Linus, I love how you find all this media - do you have a Blogspot or Tumblr or something where you compile them all? If not, you should!

For some reason, I just can't fathom Hooky "roughing it".

What I do every morning is go to Google and in the search engine I put "New Order, Peter Hook, Bernard Sumner" and it finds the latest news or article on it, so that is how I get it, glad that you liked it, Thanks

I liked it too. Can you catch up with Shaun William Ryders antics int jungle where you are? Ive only watched one which happened to be the one where Him and some skinny whinny bitch had to eat the crocodile dicks etc. Predictably Shaun just ate what was put in front of him, no fuss, no mess and no waste.

Top man.

The skinny witch was Gillian Mckeith,star of such shows as "Three fat brides,one thin dress."

I saw Shaun's intro on YouTube--hopefully the episodes will be posted there, or somewhere I can see them.

Sample Dialogue from the above.

Gillian : I am not going to eat a penis, (To Shaun) Have you ever eaten a penis? Shaun : Yeah,lots of times..

holy crap i have a new found respect for shaun ryder

what a nutter!

Got to admit every reality show like this I always half expect peter Hook to be on there (I really hope he doesn't. Shaun Ryder being on the show is making me watch it and I think he will win it if he can last.

Its a pity that Hooky didnt go on Celebrity Big Brother. I reckon he would have easily won it/killed them all.

Either way, good result.
