Stars warned of desert trek snakes A team of celebrities including singer Olly Murs and presenter Dermot O'Leary have been 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 on Sunday, ahead of the start of their journey on Monday across one of the world's most inhospitable deserts - the Kaisut Desert in northern Kenya. As well as testing out their boots and rucksacks they also practised helping Radio 4 presenter Peter White, who is visually impaired, pick his way through the rocky terrain. The team, which includes impressionist Ronni Ancona, actress and presenter Nadia Sawalha and radio presenter Scott Mills, will cover 100 kilometres across the barren desert in five days and face scorching temperatures of up to 40C.
