WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE FIRST EPISODE OF 2020 SERIES | I'M A CELEBRITY

14/11/2020

Picture
I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here is going to be a bit different this year with CoronaVirus preventing travel overseas so the clever people at ITV have come up with a brilliant Austraila alternative... the 2020 series will be done out of a Castle in Abergele, Wales instead. 

A few questions are answered in this article so lets get started.
Are Ant & Dec back?
Picture
Of course the series would not be complete without Anthony McPartlin & Declan Donnelly who will preside over the Campmates' Capers every night for the next three weeks on ITV/STV.

Ant & Dec have given the campmates some small words of advice and that is to "expect the unexpected".

When will the first BushTucker Trial happen?
The first BushTucker Trial, of sorts, has already happened.  It's called Gates Of Hell and all of the celebrities participated.  You'll have to tune in to find out how they got on.
Will the celebrities arrive in helicopters?
You will see the campmates fly over Snowdonia as they take their first look at what they'll call home for the next three weeks.

But only five will be delivered from the air.  Those in the choppers will be Shane Richie, Beverley Callard, AJ Pritchard, Hollie Arnold and Sir Mo Farah.

However, Vernon Kay, Jessica Plummer, Jordan North, Giovanna Fletcher & Victoria Derbyshire met each other for the first time at the top of a cliff where their jungle journey begun. 

This will be the celebrity's first chance to test their metal as they'll be battling for their rucksacks.  Anyone without will not be given their stuff for the first night and have to sleep in whatever they have on.  In the harsh coldness of Welsh weather this could be crucial.
What does this year's camp look like?
Browse through the gallery and discover for yourself.

Gwrych Castle is rustic-looking, and shows that the celebrities will really be back to basics.  No electrical sockets so there will be a lack of mobile phone chargers and hair straighteners in camp -  not that this will bother Sir Mo Farah. 
Is Kiosk Kev and Dingo Dollar Challenges back?
Picture
Unfortunately Kiosk Kev didn't make it over from Australia due to CoronaVirus travel restrictions so he's still manning the Outback Shack in the traditional camp.  The Dingo Dollars didn't do well on the British Pound Sterling exhange rate so this year the campmates will be competing in a daily "Castle Coin Challenge".
Picture
Upon doing some research, Ant & Dec have put their DNA Journey expertise to good use and found a long lost Welsh cousin called Kiosk Cledwyn who'll be keeping this year's campmates in order during Castle Coin Challenges.  Kiosk Cledwyn manages Ye Olde Shoppe which is the Wales equivalent of The Outback Shack.  Throughout the series, it is likely Ant & Dec will be revealing more facts on Kev's cousin.
When does I'm A Celebrity 2020 begin?
Tomorrow (Sunday 15 November) at 21:00 on ITV/STV.

​
A FremantleMedia production for BBC One.
The dance talent show kicks off with the auditions, where the audience holds the power.

​New dance captain Todrick Hall joins Cheryl Tweedy, Matthew Morrison and Oti Mabuse.

The dance talent show returns, with dancers of any age and dance style competing to win £50,000 and a chance to perform on BBC Strictly Come Dancing.

Hoping to discover the greatest dancer are the superstar dance captains: multi-platinum-selling singer Cheryl Tweedy, Broadway and Glee star Matthew Morrison and Strictly Come Dancing professional Oti Mabuse.  They are now joined by a brand new dance captain - pop star, dancer and choreographer to stars such as Beyonce Knowles and Taylor Swift, Todrick Hall.

The series is hosted by singer, and former BBC Strictly Come Dancing glitterball champion Alesha Dixon, and Jordan Banjo, member of award-winning dance troupe Diversity.

​Love Island participant and professional dancer Curtis Pritchard joins the show as the new 'receptionist', looking after all the acts backstage as they nervously await the biggest audition of their lives.
​At the auditions the audience holds the power, and only they will decide if the mirror opens for the acts or not.  The dancers need to impress 75% of the audience in attendance for the mirror to open and progress further in the competition.  And there is a brand new twist at the end of each episode, where one dance captain will get to pick one act and take them straight through to the live shows.

Get ready to see talent from across the world of dance, from ballet to jazz, street to ballroom, contemporary to krump, as they give the performances of their lives in the hope of opening the mirror.

Expect dramatic auditions, outstanding talent and jaw-dropping surprises.

Who will become The Greatest Dancer?
