November 22nd 2024.
The popular reality show, I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, is currently underway and the drama is already in full swing. As fans eagerly tune in for their fix of entertainment, it seems there may be more to the show than meets the eye. Despite being on air for 12 years, there is still a hint of mystery surrounding the iconic jungle setting.
While viewers may assume that the contestants, including Danny Jones, Coleen Rooney, Melvin Odoom, and Dean McCullough, are roughing it in a real jungle, it turns out that they are actually filming in New South Wales, at Springbrook National Park. This location is part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area, which may seem like a small detail, but it's an interesting tidbit nonetheless.
But that's not the only little-known trivia about the show. It has also been reported that the camp has a retractable 50-foot-high canopy to provide some relief in case of bad weather. While the campmates may not have full shelter, this canopy offers some protection from the elements. As a source revealed, it's not quite the same as the roof at Wimbledon, but it's better than nothing.
One of the most iconic elements of the show is the waterfall shower, where contestants can clean up for the cameras. However, former campmate Lauren Booth revealed that this too is a man-made creation. In her past writings for the Mail, she humorously pointed out that the waterfall and the pool beneath it are not part of the real jungle. She also shared that the rocks scattered around camp are not real either, as the late David Gest noticed when he took a closer look at them.
But why would the producers go to such lengths to create a fake jungle? Well, as Booth explained, it's not just for aesthetics. The rocks serve as hiding spots for cameramen who need to capture certain shots without being seen on camera themselves. And while the camp may be equipped with hidden microphones and technical wizardry, there are still some things that require a human touch.
As the show continues to entertain audiences, it's clear that there is more to the I'm A Celebrity camp than meets the eye. Whether it's the fake waterfall or the man-made rocks, these little secrets add an extra layer of intrigue to the already captivating show. The Agency reached out to ITV for comment, but until then, we can continue to enjoy the drama and surprises that I'm A Celebrity has in store for us. Catch the show tonight at 9pm on ITVX.
