The line-up for latest reality TV offering Celebrity Love Island has finally been announced.

The castaways will include former Manchester United footballer Lee Sharpe, and Callum Best, son of former Manchester United footballer George.

Joining them will be club owner and reality TV stars Fran Cosgrave and athlete Du'aine Ladejo, while Geordie TV presenter Jayne Middlemiss will head the female contingent.

ITV bosses are hoping for fireworks between dominant females and headline-grabbers Abi Titmuss and Rebecca Loos.

Former pop kitten Liz McLarnon, socialite Lady Isabella Hervey, former EastEnders stars Judy Shekoni and Michael Greco, and ex-Hollyoaks nuisance Paul Danan are also included.

The dirty dozen, who are set to depart for Bounty Island this weekend, will be mutinied for five weeks without any contact with the outside world.

Viewers will be able to play cupid by voting for the two stars they would like to see holed up in the love-shack together for five days.

The series begins on Monday at 9pm, ITV1.
