I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! Is set to return to our TV screens for a brand new series in just weeks away and ITV has now confirmed details of a new spin-off show.
The new series, I’m A Celebrity… Unpacked, will air after each episode of the main programme on ITV. The show promised ‘behind-the-scenes gossip, unseen clips, exclusive interviews and the insider’s guide to the iconic Bushtucker Trials’.
Viewers watching at home will be joined by hosts, reigning King of the Jungle Sam Thompson, jungle star Joel Dommett andCapital radio DJ Kemi Rodgers. The trio will also be joined by various exciting celebrity guests throughout the show’s run.

Sam has described hosting it as a “complete honour”, adding: “I can’t believe I’m going to get to work on such an iconic show with Joel who I’m a big fan of and the fabulous Kemi, this is a dream come true.”
In a new format change Unpacked will encourage viewers to get involved via the app and you’ll be able to send in questions that will be asked to the campmates live in the Bush Telegraph.
After each celebrity leaves camp they’ll appear on the show to provide an exclusive insight into their time in camp and offer up their honest opinions on the remaining celebrities.
As expected, Ant & Dec will also appear on the show giving their unique insights into all the latest camp actions that viewers will have just seen on ITV1.
Speaking about the show’s return, Joel, 39, who was runner-up on the ITV show in 2016, said “It’s BACKKKK! To say I’m excited to do live jungle based telly again is an understatement! I really adore the spin off show and I’m so glad it’s returning for more in depth chats with A&D, the campmates and incredible guests.

“It’s going to have a different feel to it, giving fans of the show extra goss and juice. I started my TV career there and fingers crossed I won’t say the wrong thing on live telly and end it there too.”
Meanwhile Kemi Rodgers added: “I am absolutely over the moon to be a part of this massive show – I’ve been such a fan of I’m A Celebrity for years and years, and I’m so excited that I get to bring the group chat to life by delving into everything that’s going on within camp. I’m absolutely honoured to join Joel and Sam and can’t wait to get started, see you in the jungle!”
I’m A Celebrity returns on Sunday, November 17, on ITV and ITV
