Inside I'm A Celebrity camp's big makeover - camper van to bunk bed for bromances

The I'm A Celebrity camp has been given a makeover - with camper van style luxury and a bunk bed for bromances installed.

It is three years since the show was filmed at the Aussie jungle site near Murwillumbah in New South Wales.

And ITV have made some changes to how the sleeping area looks.

Executive Prod Olly Nash said: "The camp fire is still very much the same but we have bunk beds which is a first for I'm A Celebrity and then we have a Luxury RV(motorhome) that was driven through the jungle about 35 years ago, broke down and was never moved.

"That will make a very comfy home for two people inside there.

"They won't be in there at the start but on day three, two people will win the right to sleep in there.

"I'm sure that will become the number one spot to sleep in and fight to stay in throughout the series.

"It has thick mattresses and they are comfy beds, it has its own little set of lighting and will be much cooler in there.

"The bunk beds are trying to make something slightly more intimate. In Wales we had little groups of beds together and that just means that you can have a real bromance probably with the two blokes will end up on there on the bunks."

The camp site itself has also be slightly enlarged but other elements of camplife will stay the same. The waterfall shower is in place and a bathtub remains nearby, although celebs will need to get on a tandem and cycle hard to fill up the tub.

The treehouse where lots of gossip tends to happen has had a roof installed on top.

And even Ant and Dec haven't missed out on the upgrades, as their studio has a new roof and also brand new LED lighting. It will help them to use different colours and areas of the studio.

The show will kick off on screen on Sunday night but by then it is thought the 10 celebrities will have already undertaken several challenges.

Bosses have been planning the opening of this series for months and Olly said: "It's much bigger than we've ever done before. And we're filming more(challenges) than we've ever filmed before.

"There'll be more elements lasting over more shows than has happened before too, so it's not all just going to be limited to show one. Not all celebrities will be here in camp at the end of Sunday's show."

* The new series of I'm A Celebrity kicks off on Sunday night at 9pm
