The brand new series of I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here hasn't even started yet, but already rumours are swirling that the announced start date of Sunday 18th November could be at risk!
And it's not because producers couldn't be bothered to sort things out! No, it's actually due to the weather! Since ITV announced the official start date for the hugely popular programme, forecasters have revealed that heavy storms are expected on the launch night, with them set to wreck 'havoc' in the famous camp. 😲
A source told the Daily Star, “The place has been through a drought for the past few months and everyone has been praying for some rain. Now it’s set to come right at the start of I’m a Celebrity.
“Holly had better pack her wellies for the launch, as well as her swimsuit.”
See the rumoured line-up for this year's I'm A Celebrity:
Jamie Laing
heat Radio DJ and Made In Chelsea star Jamie Laing is reportedly keen to join the show after his friend Georgia 'Toff' Toffolo's success last year. Toff was crowned Queen of the Jungle after impressing the public with her hilarious personality.

"These are big shoes, not to fill, but just to keep warm for a little bit... Honestly, I’m a huge fan of I’m a Celebrity and actually feel like I’ve won a competition to go and hang out on my favourite show! When is it a good time to tell Dec I’m scared of everything that moves?!"
No confirmation about which celebrities are going into the jungle has been made yet, but if the rumours are true, it's going to be an amazing series!
