FRESH from his triumph on I’m A Celebrity, Harry Redknapp is to appear in his adopted hometown theatre to lift the lid on what life was really like in the jungle.

During his three week stint on the ITV reality series, Redknapp charmed millions of viewers with amusing tales about his life, and his love for Sandra, his wife of 54 years.

Now the star, who lives in Sandbanks in Poole, will be sharing anecdotes and stories from his lengthy career as a professional football player and manager much closer to home in, An Evening with Harry Redknapp, at Lighthouse Poole.

Tickets for the show on May 22 will go on sale at 11am today.

At the end of the evening there will also be an audience Q&A session.

In I’m A Celebrity, Harry beat fellow contestant Emily Atack to the coveted title of King of the Jungle, while performer John Barrowman was third.

Redknapp, who had never watched the ITV programme before entering the camp, said afterwards: “I’m amazed I survived three weeks.”

As well as keeping the nation entertained with his tales, he also proved to be a worthy contestant when it came to Bushtucker trials, tackling an assault course, getting covered in rats and eating “delicacies” like a sheep’s brain.

Runner-up Atack said she was “honoured” to have been in the final alongside Redknapp, who she said was a “worthy winner”.

Redknapp’s final trial saw him lying down in an underground chamber while creepy crawlies and rats ran all over him.

An Evening with Harry Redknapp is at 7.30pm in the concert hall at Lighthouse Poole on Wednesday, May 22 in 2019

Tickets are on sale from 11am today. Standard tickets are £30, and VIP tickets are priced at £80 (to include a professional photo with Harry Redknapp pre-show, an autograph and best seats).
