I’m A Celeb’s iconic fan-favorite pilot Celebrity Cyclone ‘gets a spin-off series’ on ITV
I’m A Celebrity’s iconic fan-favorite pilot Celebrity Cyclone will reportedly get its own spin-off series – and audiences may get the chance to get involved.
The legendary challenge, which takes place when there are only four campmates left in the jungle, sees participants battle against wind, water and obstacles as they make their way up a huge slide.
They carry giant yellow stars up the hill one by one while dressed as superheroes, which makes for a much more fun process than the others.
As the years have gone by, Celebrity Cyclone has become a beloved tradition of the show and most campmates want to make it far enough to handle it.
The series is so popular that it could become a full series and a ‘standalone show’, reports The Sun.
Fans are going wild after hearing a ‘cute’ story about how Danny met his wife
I’m A Celeb fans went wild when they heard Danny Jones tell the ‘adorable’ story of how he met his wife Georgia on Monday night’s show – including how he pursued her for a whole year to get her to agree with a date.
The couple have been married for 10 years after the McFly singer, 38, proposed while on holiday in Cyprus in 2013, and they also share a six-year-old son called Cooper.
Former Miss England winner Georgia, 37, and their son are both flying to Australia to support the star.
Lifting the lid on how he met the blonde beauty, Danny told his campmates that he met her at an event and immediately fell in love with her and her northern accent.
He recalled: ‘It took me a year to get her, because I invited her to a roast. It was like going out, we couldn’t talk.
‘I was like, ‘Do you want to go to the pub tomorrow?’ and she said “Yes”. I texted her in the morning and she said, “Sorry, I can’t come.”
Watch: Oti Mabuse faces her fears while trapped in an insect-filled sarcophagus
I’m a celebrity… Get me out of here! star Oti Mabuse was confronted with her fear of tight spaces during the latest BushTucker Trial.
On Tuesday’s episode of the ITV show, the professional dancer, 34, is chosen by the public to tackle The Sinister Sarcophagus: The Mummy Returns.
Ahead of the trial, Oti is greeted by hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, both 49, and they introduce her to the sarcophagus, a coffin with a small compartment inside for her to place her head.
As the rangers reveal the inside of the coffin, Declan mysteriously says, “The second time it’s been opened in 2,000 years.”
Seeing the small compartment, Oti looks shocked and then puts her face in her hands as Ant says, “Okay, you said you’re not good with tight spaces, as you can see, it’s going to be pretty tight in there.”
Watch: Maura Higgins’ mom squirms as she’s plagued by Pete Wicks rumors
Maura Higgins’ mother squirmed as she was quizzed by Lorraine about rumors her daughter was having a romance with Pete Wicks.
Sharon Higgins appeared on Tuesday’s episode of the ITV chat show to talk about Maura’s time in the jungle on I’m A Celebrity.
She remained relatively mum on whether her daughter, 34, was actually dating the Strictly star, but confirmed the pair are ‘good friends’.
‘I can only say what she told me. “She told me they were good friends and she is single and dating,” she said. “So I don’t remember much after that, she didn’t really elaborate on that. So I don’t know what’s happening.
“Maura and Pete were always friends, but as Maura is now, she was focusing on herself at this point.”
Watch: Tulisa accuses campmates of being a ‘boyfriend on camera’
Following her departure, the N-Dubz singer, 36, has spoken out about her co-stars playing to the cameras, revealing who her favorite campmate was amid rumors of a romance between her and Coronation Street’s Alan Halsall.
Speaking to Lorraine on Monday after her departure, Tulisa said she wants former Strictly Come Dancing professional Oti Mabuse to be the next queen of the jungle.
“I don’t know who will win, but I would like to see Oti win,” she said, before talking about her other friendships in the jungle. “Oti, Alan, Melvin, Maura, they were like my soul family in there.”
But while she said she had found “friendships for life”, Tulisa admitted that “the real test begins when you are away”.
She said, ‘You know, the people in front of the cameras are all pally pally, but it’s – do you want to send those text messages, do you want to make the four hour drive – and so the test of the friendships begins now, or in a week. ‘
