Harry Redknapp and Jimmy Bullard may have been confirmed for this year’s I’m A Celebrity South Africa, but fans are still waiting for the moment they finally make their entrance.
Four episodes in and the pair have yet to appear, leaving viewers wondering when the late arrivals will shake things up in camp. But now, after an announcement from Ant and Dec, ITV has finally revealed exactly when they’ll enter camp!
When will Harry Redknapp join I’m A Celebrity South Africa?
Former King of the Jungle Harry Redknapp is definitely part of this year’s line-up, despite not yet appearing on screen.
The series, which was filmed last September, includes him as one of the later additions. However, with Gemma Collins and Craig Charles already making their entrances earlier in the run, viewers have been left questioning when Harry and Jimmy will follow.
Yesterday (April 9), a fresh update from Ant and Dec gave fans a clearer idea of what to expect.
Ant and Dec tease arrival twist
Speaking on their latest podcast, the presenting duo hinted that Harry and Jimmy’s arrival is just around the corner.
From what they revealed, it looked likely their entrance would be teased at the end of Friday’s episode (April 10), with the pair then expected to properly join camp when the show returns the following Monday.
Ant said: “We’ve got two more late entries coming at the end of this week. Then, from week two, it just goes off again to another gear.
“It’s just got everything.”
Now, ITV has shared an update. In a statement outlining what to expect in tonight’s show, it was revealed that we will finally see Harry and Jimmy on our screens tonight. Then, they will enter the jungle proper on Monday. Remember, the all-stars show doesn’t air on Saturday and Sunday nights.
ITV shared that the “two new late entrants” would be teased at the end of tonight’s show.
The statement read: “Camp life as the celebrities know it is about to drastically change, with the late arrival of two new campmates, Harry Redknapp and Jimmy Bullard in Monday’s episode.”
“Finally!” declared one fan. “Can’t wait to see the bring the fun and drama,” said a second.
Where was I’m A Celebrity South Africa filmed?
Unlike the main show, which is filmed in Australia, this all-stars edition takes place in South Africa, specifically within the Kruger National Park.
Filming took place back in September. But there is a twist for viewers this year. While most of the series is pre-recorded, the final will be broadcast live from London. And this means fans will get the chance to vote for their I’m A Celebrity Legend.
With Harry and Jimmy still to come, it seems the show could be about to kick up a gear just as the competition starts to heat up.
