Fans of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! will be thrilled to hear that a major element of the show is making a comeback after being absent for four years. As we eagerly await the return of the popular ITV series, there has been much speculation about which celebrities will be joining the lineup for this year's jungle adventure.
Rumors have been swirling about potential contestants, with names like former Strictly Come Dancing pro Giovanni Pernice, former X Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos, and boxer Tommy Fury being thrown into the mix. While we anxiously await the official cast announcement, we have just received the exciting news that a beloved part of the show is making a comeback after a four-year hiatus.
From 2016 to 2019, I'm A Celebrity had a companion show called I'm A Celebrity: Extra Camp, which aired on ITV2 and gave viewers an inside look at the camp's activities. It also featured interviews with past contestants and their loved ones. However, in 2020, the show was replaced by I'm A Celebrity... The Daily Drop, which was available to watch on ITV Hub and hosted by Vick Hope.
But now, after only one season, The Daily Drop has been axed, and Extra Camp is coming back – with a twist. Comedian and former I'm A Celebrity runner-up Joel Dommett announced on Good Morning Britain that the spin-off show will now be called I'm A Celebrity Unpacked.
"I did the extra show for three years, which I loved," Joel said. "I feel like I learned everything there. And then it stopped for a couple of years and it feels like the right time to bring it back."
He also revealed that the new show will have a different format and will feature himself, former winner Sam Thompson, and presenter and DJ Kemi Rodgers as hosts. "We're really sort of mixing it up," Joel said. "We're changing it a lot. Obviously, we've changed the name, which is great. And we're going to have Ant and Dec on every day talking through lots of stuff."
According to a statement from ITV, the new show will "bring together all those conversations in one place, to give viewers the ultimate IAC destination for all of their news, gossip and behind-the-scenes fun around TV's biggest entertainment show."
The news of Extra Camp's return has caused quite a buzz, with fans and celebrities alike expressing their excitement. Last year's winner, reality TV star Sam Thompson, was overjoyed to hear the news, and a source revealed that there are many names being considered to host the show.
With the return of Extra Camp, it looks like this year's I'm A Celebrity will be bigger and better than ever before. We can't wait to see what fun and mischief the new hosts will bring to the show. As we eagerly count down the days until the premiere, we can only imagine the thrilling adventures and hilarious moments that await us in the jungle.
