I’M A Celebrity is back in Australia with one of its best line-ups ever – and there’s a mind-blowing set to match.
The ITV show is returning to its jungle home after coming live from Wales for two years due to Covid restrictions.
Producers have installed several new features ahead of the show’s return to screens on Sunday night.
Pictures of the new set show a mighty caravan wedged at the top of the set – presumably to offer luxurious sleeping areas for the camp leaders.
The Hollywood-style motorhome will provide a cosy home for at least one celeb – and shelter from the creepy-crawlies.
Night-time arrangements don’t look nearly as comfortable for the rest of the stars, with a double-decker camp bed seen for the first time.
Snaps released by ITV reveal there’s also a battered old bicycle – though it’s unlikely to be up to the standards Chris Moyles, who requested an exercise bike, was hoping for.
There are also the return of a several old favourites with the old red British phonebox making a welcome return.
The jungle bathtub – made famous by Georgia ‘Toff’ Toffolo in the 2017 series – is also making a return.
ITV has revealed the 10 celebs who will start the show – among them singing superstar Boy George.
He will appear alongside several soap and reality stars, including Coronation Street actress Sue Cleaver, Hollyoaks’ Owen Warner and Love Islander Olivia Attwood.
Also appearing are former England rugby ace Mike Tindall, former A Place in the Sun host Scarlette Douglas, Loose Women and ITV News’ Charlene White and radio host Chris Moyles.
However, HOAR revealed this week that there are two late arrivals – MP Matt Hancock and comic Seann Walsh.
Writing in HOAR, Hancock defended his decision to go into the jungle, for which he is being thought to be being paid around £400,000.
He said: “While there will undoubtedly be those who think I shouldn’t go, I think it’s a great opportunity to talk directly to people who aren’t always interested in politics, even if they care very much about how our country’s run.
“It’s our job as politicians to go to where the people are — not to sit in ivory towers in Westminster.”
