Holly Willoughby's screen time on Celebrity Bear Hunt has been broken downShe was reportedly paid almost £1million to front the show with adventurer Bear Grylls.
But she is on screen for an average of just 180 seconds in each of the eight episodes.
A TV insider said: “Viewers will be surprised just how little she features in the final version of the programme given all the attention there’s been surrounding the show.
“Holly is a huge talent and very popular with viewers, plus she has decades of experience of presenting big TV shows, particularly live TV which requires a level of excellence few presenters have.
“But in the final edit of Celebrity Bear Hunt she plays second fiddle to leading man Bear, and even gets less screen time than the dozen celebrities who are competing.”
The show, which dropped on Wednesday, sees Bear take stars, including Strictly’s Shirley Ballas, Spice Girl Mel B, The Saturdays singer Una Healy and ex-tennis ace Boris Becker, into the Costa Rica jungle.
Once there, he hunts the celebrities through the wilderness, until they are all eliminated from the contest, bar the last person standing, who is declared the winner.
Former This Morning host Holly, who also fronts Dancing on Ice, features in many of the links between scenes.

But 50-year-old Bear, who is not only on screen longer but also talks a great deal more, takes the limelight.
Her lack of screen time is particularly surprising given that she spent almost a month recording the show in Central America last year.
Bear Grylls praises ‘remarkable, humble and brave’ Holly Willoughby after year of hell as their huge new show launchesDiscussing fronting a sequel at this week’s launch, Holly said: “We’ll have to wait and see, let’s see how this goes.
"We all had a great time and we’re all very proud of what everyone achieved and did out there.
“It was a monster of a show.”

The Saturdays singer, 43, said the sound of a gunshot that alerts contestants they are being chased by Bear Grylls gave her nightmares for weeks.
She told Irish radio station Today FM: “When I came out I had PTSD. The noise of that gunshot when you’re in The Bear Pit sends adrenaline rushing through you.
“You forget you have cameras on you, you’re hyper-vigilant the whole time.
“You step away from reality. When you come home, you’re a bit shocked.
“I had nightmares. It took me a month to readjust to normal life.”
