ITV I'm A Celebrity fans say it's 'weird' as they spot major change to South Africa series and claim 'winner'

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here fans were left wondering if they had skipped a few months as the hit ITV reality series returned to screens - but with a twist. A bunch of previously seen campmates have been whisked off to South Africa where viewers will see them compete for 'legend' status.

Those who have headed for the new setting of Kruger National Park on the southernmost tip of the African continent is boxing champion Amir Khan; Diversity dancer and DJ Jordan Banjo; TV presenter Carol Vorderman; Olympic athlete Fatima Whitbread; Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan; former royal butler Paul Burrell; ex-England cricketer Phil Tufnell; supermodel Janice Dickinson and music legend Shaun Ryder.

And at the end of the first episode, there was a surprise arrival - Gillian McKeith. The arrival of the TV personality – who competed on the original I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in 2010 – in camp for the all-stars spin-off show did not go down well with her fellow celebrities.
