David Gest has allegedly been forced to leave Britain as his work visa has expired.

Bosses of ITV show 'Grease Is The Word' are now worried the 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here' star will not be allowed to return in time to judge tomorrow night's show (05.05.07).

David failed to attend a scheduled appearance on BBC Radio 1's Chris Moyles show yesterday (03.04.07).

Loud-mouthed DJ Moyles told listeners: "David can't come in because his visa has run out.

"He has to go to Ireland to hopefully have it renewed in time for Saturday's Grease show."

Panicked ITV bosses have reportedly lined up the 53-year-old's girlfriend and 'I'm A Celebrity' co-star, Malandra Burrows, 41, to stand in for him on the judging panel.

A source told Britain's Daily Star newspaper: "After Moyles said that on the radio, everyone has panicked.
