I’m A Celebrity All Stars: Line-up and start date announced for South Africa series

I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! fans listen up: the All Stars cast has finally been announced.

The special edition of the ITV reality TV competition show will involve celebrities who have previously competed in Australia heading to South Africa for an All Stars spin-off.

The challenges are said to be “bigger and tougher” and the environment “harsher and more unforgiving”.

There’s also no public vote. Instead, the contestants will compete against each other in a battle to become the first “I’m A Celebrity Legend”.
