As the dust settles on another thrilling season of I'm A Celebrity, fans are already buzzing with excitement for next year's show. It's been just over a week since the 2024 finale, and we're already feeling the void of not having our daily dose of jungle drama. But fear not, because the speculation for 2025 has already begun.
Last year, we saw McFly's Danny Jones take home the crown after beating out Coleen Rooney and Reverend Richard Coles. With such a stellar line-up, including fan favorites like GK Barry and Maura Higgins, it's no surprise that viewers hailed it as the "best" season yet. But the question on everyone's mind is: who will grace the jungle next?
Fans have wasted no time in compiling their dream list of campmates for 2025. One name that keeps popping up is 00s TV star Karl Pilkington. While he may have kept a lower profile in recent years, Karl first rose to fame on Ricky Gervais' Radio X show before fronting his own travel series, "An Idiot Abroad," from 2010 to 2012. His unique sense of humor and witty observations have made him a fan favorite, and many are hoping to see him suffer through Bushtucker Trials with Gervais' approval.
Although Karl's last major TV role was in his comedy-drama series, "Sick of It," in 2020, he has made appearances on various shows since then. But fans are eager for him to return to center stage and grace the jungle with his presence. On Reddit, user Leather-Assistant902 wrote, "I'd love to see Karl Pilkington in it. I know he never will do it, but it'd still be nice." Other popular suggestions include comedian James Acaster, TV presenter Alan Carr, singer Jamelia, and "Clarkson's Farm" star Jeremy Clarkson.
But I'm A Celebrity is not the only show Karl has been rumored for. Former Strictly pro Joanne Clifton has expressed her desire to be partnered with him if she ever returns to the BBC show. She even joked that her first choice would be Prince Harry, but Karl would be a close second. Speaking to the Daily Star, she said, "I think he would be absolutely hilarious to work with on it. You would give him a move and tell him the technique, and he'd be like, 'But why?'" She added, "It would be so funny, not in terms of his dancing because he might be amazing, but in terms of working with him."
So, will we see Karl Pilkington in the jungle next year? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure: fans are eager to have him back on their screens. In the meantime, you can catch up on all the jungle action by streaming I'm A Celebrity on ITVX.
