'Cirque' attracts three 'Island' stars

Emily Scott on 'Love Island'

A number of former Celebrity Love Island stars have signed up to appear in celebrity circus contest Cirque de Celebrite on Sky One.

The big top reality series will see Australian actress Emily Scott, ex-Boyzone member Shayne Lynch and socialite Lady Isabella Harvey learning and showing off skills in various circus acts.

The trio follow in the footsteps of another former Love Island contestant Sophie Anderton who left the first series last year following an injury.

Princess Tamara, ex-EastEnder Hannah Waterman, Bad Girls star Antonia Okonma and children's TV star Stacey Cadman complete the lineup for the girls this year.

Meanwhile Neighbours actor Kyal Marsh (Boyd Hoyland), athlete Dwain Chambers, ex-footballer Dean Holdsworth, Casualty star Luke Bailey and former Five singer Ritchie Neville are the boys who will be joining Lynch to compete.

Last year's series, won by 2006 Big Brother contestant Grace Adams-Short, was hosted by Ruby Wax.

This year presenter Jenni Falconer will front the series, which will start on October 7.
