ITV plans second series of I'm A Celebrity All Stars in South Africa

ITV is set to bring back the popular reality show 'I'm A Celebrity… South Africa' for a new All-Stars series, following the success of the inaugural season in 2023, which averaged 5.5 million viewers per episode. The new series will feature some of the most memorable contestants from previous seasons and will be filmed in the rugged Kruger National Park, offering tougher challenges than before. Hosts Ant and Dec are confirmed to return, and while the official lineup is not yet announced, speculation is rife about potential participants. Unlike the original format, viewers will not vote for contestants in challenges; instead, campmates will compete for the title of 'Legend'. Shayna Jack, a former contestant, highlighted the dangers of filming in the South African jungle, including encounters with snakes and extreme weather conditions, adding a layer of intensity to the show. The All-Stars series is expected to air in 2026.
