I’m A Celebrity South Africa 2026 trailers

Britain’s Got Talent viewers were treated to a surprise over the weekend when a brand new I’m A Celebrity trailer aired during the ad break.

Ant and Dec sit in the dark sipping a hot drink around a campfire when a loud roar cuts through the night.

A startled Ant asks: “What was that?!”

Dec points calmly into the distance and reassures him: “It was just a big cat.”

Ant leaps up and fires back: “A big cat? No way!”

He promptly runs off, with Dec close behind.

The Geordie duo have also filmed a second trailer. Once again, they are by the campfire when Ant yawns and says: “Night, night.”

Dec replies: “Don’t let the bed bugs bite. Or the ticks and the mozzies. And the scorpions, and the sand spiders and the Kudus or the baboon…”

That clip will roll out across ITV this week.

Fans have been whipped into a frenzy, especially after the first trailer was posted on ITV’s Instagram.

And they are all making the same plea. When does I’m A Celebrity South Africa actually start?

One follower wrote: “Yay can’t wait. @itv just give us a date already been looking forward to this.”

Another added: “Can’t wait guys, when?” A third simply posted: “WHEN!!!
