Veteran actress Dame Joan Collins says that she will never take part in Strictly Come Dancing or I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here.

Dame Joan Collins has revealed that she will never take part in reality shows such as Strictly Come Dancing and I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here.

The 86-year-old has been working in the entertainment industry since the 1950s and has been a regular target for the two of the highest-profile shows on TV.

"They've stopped asking me now to go on Strictly Come Dancing - they know I won't," Collins told The Sun.

"And I was asked to do that desert island thing... no, I mean the jungle. I was asked if I wanted to go into the jungle for I'm A Celebrity.

"But when you get to a certain age it's ridiculous to do these things. I'm an actress, not a celebrity per se."

Collins also revealed that she has "lost five jobs since lockdown started" in March.
