The UK’s favourite survival reality TV show returned on Sunday night.
And the first instalment of the 21st series of I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! was not short of jaw-dropping trials and challenges as ten new celebrities threw themselves into the gruelling experience.
Filmed for the second consecutive year at Gwrych Castle, Abergele in North Wales, the campmates’ previous life of luxury soon became a distant memory as they braced themselves for up for up to three weeks of castle surroundings and Welsh countryside – with the opening challenge seeing Danny Miller thrown from a cliff.
It’s back! The 21st series of I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! returned on Sunday night – with the opening challenge seeing Danny Miller thrown from a cliff
The first challenge of the series, Walk The Plank, was introduced after the first group of celebrities – broadcaster Louise Minchin, producer Naughty Boy, DJ Snoochie Shy and Danny – landed in a helicopter.
Ant said: ‘This year is going to be tougher than ever, all the celebrities will face gruelling challenges on their way to the Castle to win the keys to the Castle.’
The stars were forced to go head-to-head in a plank challenge, which Ant explained: ‘Between the planks is a stack of lights. The red lights will start to flash and when the green light comes on, you must press the button with your foot. The first celebrity to hit their button will win and the loser will be dropped from their plank.’
The winning team could go on to pick which two celebrities from the other group – comprising of David Ginola, Dame Arlene Phillips, Matty Lee and Kadeena Cox – will represent them in the next challenge.

Losers would be banished to the Castle Clink, whereas the lucky winning team who retrieved the keys to the castle would have access to the main camp.

Later on in yellow camp, Naughty Boy was spotted breaking the rules, having snuck in spices to go with their substandard rice and beans.
‘Before I left, I grinded some spices that could make rice and beans actually taste a bit nice so what I did, I put it in my sock. There’s cumin seeds, cloves, turmeric, coriander seeds. If you could smell this. Wow. And black peppercorns,’ he explained.
Monday night’s episode will see Danny go head to head with one of the celebs from the main Camp in Dreaded Diner.
