The jungle is calling once more, but this time it's different. ITV has officially announced the star-studded line-up for I'm A Celebrity's highly anticipated all-stars series, set to air this spring from the wilds of South Africa.
Familiar Faces Return to Camp
This special series brings together some of the most memorable campmates from previous seasons for another shot at jungle glory. Among the confirmed celebrities making their triumphant return are:
- Helen Flanagan - The former Coronation Street actress who famously struggled with bushtucker trials during her 2012 stint
- Paul Burrell - Princess Diana's former butler, who originally appeared in the 2004 series
- Phil Tufnell - The legendary cricketer turned jungle king from the 2003 series
- Carol Vorderman - Countdown star who faced the jungle in 2016
- Georgia Toffolo - The 2017 winner who captured the nation's heart
South Africa's Wild Setting
Unlike the traditional Australian jungle, this all-stars edition will take place in South Africa's breathtaking wilderness. The new location promises familiar challenges with unexpected twists, testing the returning celebrities in ways they've never experienced before.
The series format remains true to the original, with campmates facing the iconic bushtucker trials and surviving on meager rations. However, producers have hinted at "new surprises that will push even the most experienced campmates to their limits."
Why This Series Matters
This marks the first time I'm A Celebrity has produced an all-stars version, bringing together fan favourites from across two decades of the show's history. The selection process focused on the most entertaining and memorable personalities who left a lasting impression on viewers.
With filming already completed and the series scheduled for broadcast this spring, anticipation is building for what promises to be the most dramatic jungle reunion ever televised.
