Overview
- ITV’s I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! launches Sunday at 9pm with Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly hosting from Australia.
- The 10-campmate lineup features Aitch, Kelly Brook, AngryGinge (Morgan Burtwistle), Jack Osbourne, Alex Scott, Ruby Wax, Martin Kemp, Lisa Riley, Shona McGarty and Eddie Kadi.
- A Sun-sourced list, unconfirmed by ITV, reports Aitch at £250,000 and Eddie Kadi at £75,000, with others between £80,000 and £200,000, far below previously reported £1.5m fees for past names such as Coleen Rooney and Nigel Farage.
- Producers previewed a high-intensity opener with five skydives, an offal-and-slime scramble for a key fob, and a villa challenge using green ants and head boxes with snakes to decide seats in a Getaway Car versus the critter-filled Cockie Van driven by Kiosk Kev.
- A reported rule tweak limits any contestant from being voted into Bushtucker Trials for more than two consecutive days to spread challenges more evenly.
