I’m A Celebrity… South Africa won’t air this weekend.
Five episodes of the hit ITV reality show have already been broadcasted but fans will have to wait until Monday (April 13) for the next instalment.
The pre-recorded series was filmed in September 2025 with a host of famous faces returning to battle it out to be crowned I’m A Celebrity Legend.
Friday’s (April 10) episode played a teaser trailer confirming the arrival of former King of the Jungle Harry Redknapp and ex-contestant Jimmy Bullard.
Speaking to the group, hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly announced: “Camp life as you know it is about to change. It’s time to welcome two new campmates”
The group were then taken into a new area of the jungle to meet Harry and Jimmy.
Former Emmerdale actor Adam Thomas could heard be shouting: “Oh my God! What is going on?” before the show ended.
The second All Stars spin-off kicked off on Monday (April 6) and welcomed back fan favourites from throughout the ITV show’s history and like the first All-Stars series, which aired in 2023, it will Monday to Friday across three weeks.
From Gemma Collins and Sir Mo Farah to Scarlett Moffatt and Sinitta, they are all hoping to follow in the footsteps of season one winner Myleene Klass.
Tensions are already on the rise in camp with Coronation Street icon Beverley Callard taking a swipe at former professional boxer David Haye after he sent her to Savannah Scrub in the very first episode.
During the episode, Beverley threatened “to chin him” and later hit out at him again once the two camps were finally reunited.
It comes after the announcement that the live final will be split into two parts on Friday, April 24, meaning there’s just two weeks left.
The grande finale will be broadcast live from London with the first part airing from 7.30pm until 9pm and then returning at 10pm until 10.30pm for the winners’ announcement.
In the hour gap between 9pm and 10pm, Graham Norton’s new reality show The Neighbourhood will launch.
Whilst there will be two hours of I’m A Celebrity South Africa to enjoy, fans are not happy with how the scheduling shake-up.
Taking to social media, fans lashed out at ITV’s decision to split the finale in two with one fan wrtiting: “Seems kinda pointless imo, why not start I’m A Celebrity at half 8 and put Graham on before or end I’m a Celebrity 9.30.”
“They might want to rethink that… I’m A Celeb won’t add any viewers with its current figures,” another said.
However, there was some positivity surrounding the move. “Seems odd nowadays, but a part of me misses when some live shows used to be split into two parts with another programme airing in the middle. Never see it now with the likes of BGT and Big Brother. Made it feel more like an event,” one viewer said.
I’m A Celebrity… South Africa returns Monday, April 13 at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX
