Celebs’ desert trek for charity

A TEAM of celebrities including singer Olly Murs and presenter Dermot O’Leary was warned to look out for deadly snakes as they prepared to trek across the desert in aid of Comic Relief.

The nine famous faces, including singer Craig David, presenter Lorraine Kelly and Strictly Come Dancing champion Kara Tointon, embarked on a three-hour acclimatisation trek ahead of the start of their journey today across one of the world’s most inhospitable deserts — the Kaisut Desert in northern Kenya.
