July 16, 20204 yr Author I wonder if he's returning to ITV presenting? He's been doing motorsport for the last few years
August 4, 20204 yr Author 'I'm a Celebrity: A Jungle Story' will air this year to mark the 20th series, "celebrating the show's best moments over the years".
August 7, 20204 yr The new series will be filmed in a ruined castle, which means it can be filmed in the UK. Will be interesting to see how it changes the tone of the series.
August 7, 20204 yr The new series will be filmed in a ruined castle, which means it can be filmed in the UK. Will be interesting to see how it changes the tone of the series. It will certainly be different! I love the format, but it does get stale after the first week. Undoubtedly it will come under criticism but it's really not the right thing to be doing flying so many people out to Australia at this current time. You can understand ITV wanting to have a major event telly series too.
August 7, 20204 yr Goodness me what a substantial change that's gonna be! Be like watching a different show, I'm certainly intrigued even more now.
August 7, 20204 yr For a one-off that suits the current climate of the world, I think it works out quite well for them. I imagine it'll draw more curiosity viewers initially, will be cheaper and maybe easier to get celebs on board since they haven't got as far to travel (unless the holiday to Australia provided most of the appeal :lol:)
August 7, 20204 yr Interesting idea but I’d personally rather they label the new show something other than I’m A Celebrity though and launch it as like a totally new concept show then have I’m A Celeb just not air this year and return next year in Australia.
August 7, 20204 yr Author They'll want that name recognition though, and I guess other than the location it'll be the exact same format
August 7, 20204 yr A ruined castle in the UK? Will they be theming the challenges around the UK also? Dropping sheep on the celebrities heads if they get a question wrong? Making them stick their beer soaked head into a box full of 1000 angry wasps?
August 7, 20204 yr omg not the contingency plan being a most haunted series in a spooky stately home I understand why but not this becoming a (semi) reality 💀 Staying in a castle in the UK in late November/December... I hope they have their thermals!!! Not sure how it will fully work and how they can avoid making it look like a version of Celebrity Big Brother...
August 7, 20204 yr I actually love this idea. It would work really well if they made the challenges more UK/medieval too, so the whole thing was themed around the castle (if they have enough time to plan all of that.)
August 7, 20204 yr Author I'm guessing the budget will be smaller being over here, so hopefully they can get bigger names!
August 7, 20204 yr I'm not sure... perhaps but then I can imagine some celebrities would want to wait until it's in its more traditional format.
August 7, 20204 yr Author I'm not sure... perhaps but then I can imagine some celebrities would want to wait until it's in its more traditional format. I guess they could try and tempt some celebrities who haven't wanted to do the traditional format in Australia as well - I believe Philip Schofield said something along those lines (but he would also be a definite winner from the start I suspect :lol:)
August 8, 20204 yr For me personally I think this would be a good idea to try and do an all star series. I think around 90% of celebs who haven’t done the show and who perhaps were on standby for this series may have wanted the full Aussie experience like it just won’t be truly the same doing it here in the UK :lol: have an all star series then bring back the proper show in the same location next year.
August 8, 20204 yr I guess they could try and tempt some celebrities who haven't wanted to do the traditional format in Australia as well - I believe Philip Schofield said something along those lines (but he would also be a definite winner from the start I suspect :lol:) yeah a few have said the travel to australia is too much etc. i’m really looking forward to this series to see what they do!
