I’m a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! is back – and viewers are already obsessed with the “unflappable” Mike Tindall and Jill Scott.
The popular ITV reality series returned for its 20th series, which is taking place in the jungle in Australia for the first time since 2019. Read The Independent’s review of the debut episode here.
I’m a Celebrity was forced to relocate to Wales due to the pandemic, but this year’s crop of celebrities are back where the show truly belongs.
During the first episode on Sunday (6 November), Tindall and Scott impressed the public with their supremely chilled reactions to their first challenges.
This year’s stars include singer Boy George, DJ Chris Moyles, and newsreader and Loose Women star Charlene White.
Controversy rocked the show in October upon the announcement that disgraced politician Matt Hancock will be entering the series a few days in alongside comedian Seann Walsh.
Check out the highlights from Sunday’s show below.

When will Matt Hancock join I’m A Celebrity?
Sunday 6 November 2022 23:25 , Isobel Lewis
And because we know you’re all asking it... here’s everything we know about when Matt Hancock will be heading into the jungle.
Where is Matt Hancock and is he going on I’m a Celebrity?
Sunday 6 November 2022 23:10 , Isobel Lewis
Martin Lewis is not here for these celebrities.
I do roll my eyes when I hear "I don't know what I'm doing here" on #ImACeleb.
It's an entertainment TV booking. You're on there for one or more of...
1) a paycheque
2) to boost your profile
3) to rehabilitate your image

Wondering how much this year’s campmates are being paid?
How much are this year’s I’m a Celebrity contestants being paid?
Sunday 6 November 2022 22:45 , Isobel Lewis
And that’s the (rather abrupt) end!
Tomorrow night, our VIPs (Olivia, Chris, George, Scarlette) will be taking part in the first trial of the series!
I can’t lie, it’s good to be back.
Sunday 6 November 2022 22:42 , Isobel Lewis
“Mike Tindall is a dragon, bruv.”
Incredible.

Jill Scott trying out the hammock and immediately falling onto the floor, Charlene White lighting fire with flint? Is there anything these ladies can’t do?
Jungle VIPs to complete first Bushtucker Trial
Sunday 6 November 2022 22:39 , Isobel Lewis
Well, there you have it. Chris Moyles, Olivia Attwood, Boy George and Scarlette Douglas are united and are doing the first challenge during tomorrow’s show.
But for tonight, they’re slumming it on some mouldy beds – and they don’t look impressed...
Sunday 6 November 2022 22:29 , Isobel Lewis
Still thinking about that spider...

Owen on the other hand... the opposite of chill.
Still, he’s giving it a good go. Reckon he’s gonna be TV gold.

Mike Tindall following in the Jill Scott school of chill – has anybody ever been so chill about a massive spider crawling on their head?

Jill Scott’s odds slashed after impressive first trial performance
Sunday 6 November 2022 22:24 , Isobel Lewis
Apparently I’m not the only one obsessed with Jill Scott.
Ladbrokes have slashed the Lioness’s odds from 11/2 to 5/2, just behind overall favourite Olivia Attwood.
Boy George and Scarlette Douglas second VIPs
Sunday 6 November 2022 22:14 , Isobel Lewis
The public, somewhat predictably, have voted Boy George as the other group’s VIP.
He chooses Scarlette to go with him, meaning the other three are off in their chopper, potentially to do what Babatunde couldn’t do, and complete the high-walk trial.
Sunday 6 November 2022 22:11 , Isobel Lewis
Boy George there, describing Ant and Dec as a “dark cloud of misery”.

Well there’s an unexpected celebrity connection to one of our campmates. Chris Moyles used to be Tom Grennan’s landlord – who knew?

God........ that’s really high, isn’t it.........
Olivia Attwood and Chris Moyles to jump out of a helicopter
Sunday 6 November 2022 21:53 , Isobel Lewis
Ahh, so that’s what Jungle VIP means. Chris and Olivia are going to be jumping out of a helicopter at 10,000 feet.
Olivia says she hopes to land with “both boobs” and “all the veneers” still attached, which I think we can all agree with.
Sunday 6 November 2022 21:50 , Isobel Lewis
Quality TV this, Chris Moyles and Olivia Attwood doing prawn voices. Don’t pretend you haven’t missed it.

Has anyone ever looked so chill hanging off a stupidly high building?
Jill Scott clearly has nerves (and a core) of steel.
Sunday 6 November 2022 21:40 , Isobel Lewis
Jill Scott.
Legend.
What can you say?
Sunday 6 November 2022 21:40 , Isobel Lewis
An “I’m a celebrity, get me out of here” after 39 minutes? Is that a new record? Before he’s even in the jungle?
Sunday 6 November 2022 21:37 , Isobel Lewis
Babatunde’s up next and I think Jill Scott might be right. They definitely deserve more than three stars for this.
Sunday 6 November 2022 21:35 , Isobel Lewis
If you’re looking out for Matt Hancock in this episode, he won’t be making an appearance – although Ant and Dec have promised to roll out the “matt” for him when he does arrive.
Here’s everything we know so far about his arrival.
Three stars up for grabs in first challenge

Anyone have Olivia Attwood and Chris Moyles forming a weird jungle friendship on their I’m a Celebrity bingo card?
Sunday 6 November 2022 21:23 , Isobel Lewis
VIP, we’ve just been told, actually means Very Isolated Person.
Jill, Charlene and Babatunde are heading off in a chopper for their first challenge – something to do with heights and a glass walkway?
Olivia Attwood named first Jungle VIP
Sunday 6 November 2022 21:20 , Isobel Lewis
Ant and Dec are here and they’re telling this first five that Olivia Attwood has been named Jungle VIP by the public.
She gets to choose another campmate to join her in the VIP section, Attwood goes for Chris Moyles, her close friend for all of 10 minutes.
What awaits the other three, we’re yet to find out.

Rounding out group one, we have Babatunde Aléshé, who says he’s scared of “everything”! A good start!
Followed by him immediately tripping over, which is also a great sign!

I’m a Celebrity is back in Australia this winter for the first time since the pandemic began.
With it, come all the animal-based challenges the show is known for – but Peta aren’t happy about it, and have called for Ant and Dec to resign over the Bushtucker Trials.

Everyone’s been talking about a certain MP who will be joining the jungle as a “bombshell” (not the Love Island type) later in the competition, but who are the 10 stars who will be appearing in the first episode?
