Former Girls Aloud singer Sarah Harding has become the sixth contestant to drop out of Channel 4 series The Jump because of injury.
The 34-year-old said she had "no choice" but to leave the reality skiing show because of a ligament injury.

Britain's most successful gymnast Tweddle, 30, needed neck surgery following a fall during training

Former Olympic swimming champion Rebecca Adlington, 26, withdrew after dislocating her shoulder

Holby City actress Hobley, 44, also headed for the exit after she dislocated her elbow and suffered two fractures to her arm

Made In Chelsea star Mark-Francis Vandelli, 26, pulled out after fracturing his ankle

1992 Olympic 100m champion Linford Christie pulled out after he failed to recover in time from a hamstring injury

Former England rugby player Ben Cohen, 37, who was drafted in as some of the stars were forced to drop out, was also injured after he said he had used his face to stop himself in an accident.  He lost two teeth and needed 20 stitches, he said on Twitter, but will remain in the competition.

Heather Mills has become the seventh celebrity to pull out of Channel 4's The Jump due to injury.
She crashed during a practice run over the weekend, injuring her knee and thumb.

What are the chances that they'll let you nominate celebrities to be on this?

Jeremy Clarkson anyone?

Katie Hopkins?

If they can be sufficiently injured to be put on a ventilator for the forseeable, and therefore made to shut up, I'm all in favour.

Would give anything to hear someone shout "PULL!!!!" as either of those two leapt off the end of the ramp . . .

Jeremy Clarkson would mostly land on an undiscovered stash of £50 notes knowing his luck.

I think it's perfectly reasonable not to know who he is. I don't.

Curious mixture of retired athletes & 'celebrities' who I presume are bit part actors listed here.

I see Wiggo has now signed up for this. Presumably skiing won't aggravate his allergies.

Was prepared to give it a go because Wiggo and, to be fair, he didn't let us down. 'I'm only doing this to piss off the Daily Mail'!
But after that it's just content-free television. Off.

To be fair, it's a stress fracture rather than the usual calamitous near-death crash they are more used to in that programme.


Broken leg sounds calamitous though

Broken leg is sub-optimal for a pro cyclist. Just as well he has retired.

I would pay to watch them send Piers Morgan down the 90m ramp.

Might've mentioned this before but the only way this is worth watching is to hear someone shout 'PULL' as the chosen sleb hits the bottom of the ramp.

Of course, for Piers 'Moron' Morgan, the colossal bellend, the only fitting way is for him to jump whilst someone is aiming a Bofors gun at him...

Why? Surely its would be more entertaining to see the look of doom on his face as he notices Torslanda's Bofors gun getting a bead on him
