Other stars to suffer painful injuries on the show include Pete Wicks and Jake Quickenden HORROR INJURY Celebrity SAS star Lucy Spraggan reveals she 'ripped' her vagina in nasty accident on show – and has to have surgery SAS: Who Dares Wins has seen the worst celebrity injury in the show's history, with X-Factor singer Lucy Spraggan tearing her private parts when a stunt went wrong. The competitor on Channel 4's military training contest was left bleeding and in agony as result of wearing a harness and says she now needs reconstructive surgery.

She said: "I ripped my labia - it was bad. That's not a common injury. Actually, genuinely, that's never been the same, so much so I'm having some surgery soon to correct it. "I don't really know even what happened, I guess the harness was tight. "I was like: "This feels really bad. Surely there can't be anything." And I looked and there was a tear, there was lots of blood and the doctor came over and I turned around because at that point you literally don't care about anything. Dignity has gone. It was like: 'Oh my God, I thought it was your leg.' And I was like: 'No, no, it's not!'"

Lucy's woes didn't end with the harness, however. During filming of this series she also nearly knocked one of her teeth out, fainted, and suffered more horror injuries when she face-planted the sea after trying to jump from a helicopter onto a boat. That left her with a black eye, which was still present on her wedding day, and permanently displaced filler in her cheeks. Lucy said: "I had the filler under my eyes and when my face hit the sea so hard my filler migrated to the side of my face.

Gary Lineker signs huge I'm a Celeb-like deal with ITV
It comes three months after the beloved presenter was forced to step back from the BBC amid accusations of anti-Semitism. His new show will see 12 famous faces put in boxes and given daring challenges. It is rumoured to be the successor to Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway and similar to I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here! Gary Lineker is a genuinely nice guy who cares about the plight of people seeking asylum in the UK,if only we had more govt Ministers who felt the same! ITV are said to have been keen on signing him for some time. Reportedly a huge hit in Norway, The Box sees a dozen celebrities placed in separate boxes, each with a daring challenge to complete. It has been described as a cross between I'm A Celebrity and SAS: Who Dares Wins. A source told The Sun: 'The Box is massive in Norway, and the rights were quickly sold to Denmark and now the UK. "ITV are really excited about it - and believe they have finally found a worthy successor to Saturday Night Takeaway. 'They have long been sniffing around Gary and just needed to find the right format for him. 'They're confident they've found that now, and the BBC's loss is their gain.' Recommended reading: A TV insider said: 'The scheduling hasn't yet been confirmed but filming takes place in the autumn, and the series is due to air early spring. 'It looks likely to get a Saturday night slot though, but obviously it's all still to play for.' Ant and Dec's long-running show ended in April last year - and ITV have struggled to replace it. Lineker had been a fixture on BBC Saturday night screens for 26 years as host of Match of the Day.
