If they’re allowed to bring in one thing why didn’t he bring his beloved treadmill? He does most of his runs on there anyway.

He’s doing ok. Big task tonight which will give him a big chunk of airtime.
I have noticed he isn’t the sharpest tool in the box and seems a bit out his comfort zone around the others. When they start to dance etc. I think he’s the 4th favourite to win @ 7/1 .

I thought that, too. He's a bit awkward among some of the other natural entertainers. He's doing ok though. Seems likable enough, doesn't seem to know about much outside of sport. It'll be interesting if someone ever asks about Salazar, there is a journalist in there so may know how to push him
OK, seriously, why the hell did Mo sign up for this???
He has loads of money already, and if he wanted publicity there are all kinds of panel shows/talk shows he could have done (I'm sure they'd all be up for having Mo Farah as a guest)!
What was the appeal of this? It looks absolutely horrible.
Seriously, watch the video posted above. Why would you do it?
I could imagine some B-list actor or comedian doing it as it could propel them up a level, or they might need the money, but none of that applies here.

Because his reputation was shattered in the UK. It's hard for Americans to understand, particularly here, but the British public are very anti-doping. Galen Rupp is still a national hero in the US, Mo's reputation was destroyed by the NOP scandal, even though Al Sal wasn't rubbing testosterone on to Mo's thighs as a teenager.
Quite a few shamed stars have gone on I'm a Celeb as a last bid to restore their reputation. One example was the comedian and TV show host Michael Barrymore, whose career ended in the 90's when,,,well look him up on Wikipedia. I think he actually won the show.
I think you overestimate how little people know or care about Mo's doping issues.
I appreciate within the superdork competitive running community his name is mud. Outside of that in the real world, most see him as a hero.
Besides the 'in-gur-lund, Brexit means Brexit, send em back, defend are stachoos' brigade who never liked him anyway, doping or not doping.
I think it's just that your two major worlds collide in this case.
Is Mo update?

Lol. You shouldn’t comment on anything related to the US if you think this is true.
Mo was eliminated tonight, i wonder did any testers turn up for a sample.
