Hello everyone! I know I’m late to the party once again, but due to being in work till late last night I’ve only managed to get round to watching I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here. 

Due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, instead of being in Australia this year, the campmates have ventured to Abergele in the North of Wales in a castle named, Gwrych Castle. I’m sure you’ve all been made aware by now that not one, but two EastEnders stars have signed up to be part of the show.  

Ex-EastEnders stars Shane Ritchie (Alfie Moon) and Jessica Plummer (Chantelle Atkins) have signed up to take part in this years I’m A Celeb! 

And what a kick start to the show it was! Half of the campmates found them selves having to abseil down a rocky cliff to collect their bags, but only if they were to answer questions correctly about the group, would they be able to unlatch the bags from the cliff. The other half of the team had to help them out while they watched on from the rocks below. They successfully completed their task and were then taken to their final destination of the castle, where they’ll be staying in camp. 

Shortly after making themselves comfortable in the camp, Ant & Dec approached the group and informed them that that very night they would all be facing a bush tucker trial, named The Gates To Hell, together as a group. The trail involved the campmates being locked in individual chambers whilst they passed gold stars to each other from one end of the chamber to the other, whilst also being covered in all sorts of insects including crickets, maggots and cockroaches. They successfully managed to get 7 out of 10 stars.  

The following day, Ant & Dec once again joined the group and announced that the votes for the following bush tucker trial were in and revealed that Shane Ritchie would be taking part along with camp mate Jordan North. 

My first reaction to the show has been pure excitement, this year has a brilliant line up of camp mates and I have to be honest, I’m looking forward to seeing how Shane and Jessica get on. I’m sure the majority of you will know that last years winner was Jacqueline Jossa (Lauren Branning)!
