‘I’m A Celebrity’ Begins Filming With Parachute Drop and Snake Trial as Show Unveils Tougher 25th Series

Producers promise a tougher run, with expanded group trials alongside limits on back‑to‑back viewer‑voted challenges.

Overview

  • First-look filming in Australia shows one group skydiving onto a beach near Evans Head while another tackled an initial task with snakes placed on their heads as Ant and Dec looked on.
  • Viewers will not be able to select the same contestant for more than two consecutive Bushtucker Trials, with eligibility resetting after a one‑vote break.
  • Executive producer Olly Nash says more campmates will feature in trials and notes an unusually high number of snakes during build‑up, as bosses remove luxury items in camp.
  • A reported ‘Getaway car’ mechanic will see four celebrities compete for transfer perks and the most comfortable beds, a tweak expected to stir early rivalry.
  • ITV confirms the 10‑person cast: Kelly Brook, Alex Scott, Jack Osbourne, Ruby Wax, Aitch, Angry Ginge, Shona McGarty, Eddie Kadi, Lisa Riley and Martin Kemp, with the series premiering Sunday, November 16 at 9pm on ITV and ITVX.
