What’s Different About I’m A Celebrity Unpacked?
In an exciting reveal on Good Morning Britain, Joel Dommett shared that the spin-off show is back after being axed in 2020. This isn’t just any reboot, though—this time around, the show has been given a fresh title, I’m A Celebrity Unpacked, and an exciting new format.
According to Dommett:
- The new show will include daily appearances by Ant and Dec (the iconic I’m A Celebrity hosts), providing their exclusive takes on the latest jungle drama.
- Each episode will feature big interviews with campmates right after they leave the jungle. Fans will get to see the raw reactions and untold stories straight from the stars.
Why Bring Back the Spin-Off Now?
Dommett, who’s hosted spin-off shows for I’m A Celebrity for three years, explained that now feels like the perfect time for a return. The spin-off, formerly known as Extra Camp and The Daily Drop, aims to build on fan excitement and showcase the best moments in the jungle.
“It’s not just a spin-off show; we’re taking it a notch higher with new angles, exclusive interviews, and fan interaction,” Dommett said. He believes that the jungle drama and heartwarming moments this year deserve a deeper dive.
