ITV is bringing back I’m a Celebrity South Africa for another season. This time, a team of former contestants will compete to be named the show’s greatest champion.
Last year, a team of well-known celebrities bravely returned to the jungle, where they faced the challenges of camp living and endured tough competitions.
You can watch the show starting Monday, April 6th at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX. New episodes will be shown every weeknight at the same time, unless there are any changes to the schedule.
This year’s group of contestants is a diverse bunch, with several who have previously found success on other TV shows. They’re all heading into the jungle hoping to win, and the lineup includes Adam Thomas, Ashley Roberts, Scarlett Moffatt, David Haye, Beverley Callard, Seann Walsh, Sinitta, Sir Mo Farah, Gemma Collins, Craig Charles, Jimmy Bullard, and Harry Redknapp.
This year, there’s a new element to the show: the audience gets to choose the ultimate winner of the 2026 competition! After weeks of watching the celebrities compete, viewers will have the final say with a live vote during the grand finale, broadcast from London.
Ant & Dec explained to past winner Sam Thompson that the show will be filmed live in the UK and broadcast on television.
The show will bring back all the contestants and have the finalists compete live in the studio. Like the Australian version, the public will ultimately decide who wins. Although the final will be held in London, the celebrities faced especially challenging trials this year. Dec explained that after Myleene Klass’s impressive win in South Africa, they decided to let the public choose the winner, but first, they made the journey to the final more difficult than ever before.
I’m a Celebrity… South Africa returns on Monday 6 April at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
