Former Radio 1 Breakfast Show host Chris Moyles was spotted after landing at Brisbane Airport on Tuesday, as speculation about the line-up heats up. Shortly afterwards, former Love Island star Olivia Attwood was also seen arriving at the terminal.
While ITV has not officially announced who will be taking part in the upcoming series of the jungle-based reality show – which is returning to Australia for the first time in two years due to Covid – sightings of British celebs at the airport is usually a clear indication of their participation.
Other celebrities are excepted to arrive in Australia over the coming days, ahead of the new series kicking off next month.
While a launch date is still to be officially announced, I’m A Celebrity is expected to begin earlier this year in order to avoid a clash with the World Cup, which kicks off at the end of November.
Among those also rumoured to be taking part in the series are singer Boy George, former England rugby player Mike Tindall, Loose Women anchor Charlene White, comedian Seann Walsh, comic Babatunde Aleshe, property presenter Scarlette Douglas and Hollyoaks actor Owen Warner.
Now that celebrities are landing in Australia for the new series, the channel announced on Wednesday (October 26) that it will kick off I’m a Celebrity 2022 on Sunday, November 6 at 9pm on ITV with a super-sized episode.
This series marks I’m a Celebrity’s return to the outback for the first time since the pandemic started. The last few series have taken place at Gwrych Castle in Wales.
I wonder how long we will survive this time Omah…you never know we might see this series through. I will watch with the best intentions …but I might have to resort to your daily synopsis…we.shall see
Genuinely, where did you get the idea of South Africa from? Not that I’ve been watching developments closely, but I’m sure I’d have seen some kind of headline if it had been mentioned.
ITV’s I’m A Celebrity campmates and their families won’t be staying in the plush Palazzo Versace Hotel where stars from many past series have lapped up the luxury. ITV bosses have decided to take over a Marriott hotel instead, according to reports.
Fans and hosts Ant and Dec are very excited about the show being in Australia again but one thing that will be missing is the Versace, the place featured in many Coming Out specials after the main series has finished and the hotel where many celebs’ nearest and dearest have taken full advantage of as their loved ones rough it in camp, reports the Chronicle Live.
Rooms at the Palazzo Versace are said to start at £1,000, whereas the prices at the JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort and Spa start at a slightly more affordable £256. ITV has used the Versace ever since the series came to Queensland in 2004. Those classic scenes of the muddy, exhausted celebs arriving in the glamorous, gleaming lobby are part of I’m A Celeb’s very fabric. The new hotel is very different to the opulence of the Versace.
I guess that the “nearest and dearest” will have to rough it, too:
