OHMYGOSSIP — The ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’ bosses have been forced to come up with a contingency plan after heavy rain was forecast for the upcoming week in Queensland.
The celebrities are set to enter the Croc Creek camp this weekend for the new series of the creepy-crawly show – filmed in Australia – but they may be forced to seek temporary refuge on higher grounds as it’s thought bad weather is set to hit the area.
A source told The Sun Online: “We are preparing for all eventualities.
“Provisions are in place for soggy conditions and campmates are equipped with waterproofs to wear should it rain heavily. It’s just a shame for viewers back home in the UK who like to see the celebs enjoying the warm weather. There is also more chance of the women donning their bikinis for the waterfall shower scenes when it’s warm, so they’re hoping it will brighten up as soon as possible.”
But it’s not just thunderstorms bosses are worried about as the unpredictable weather has seen an influx of killer spiders leaving their hideaways and roaming around.
Dr Robert Raven said recently: “In the past we’ve had early rain and nothing. Just really dry summers. But this summer, the rain is allowing the whole system to crank up again. People should check everywhere.
“If you pick up your towel, the next thing you know you could have a huntsman on your face. A lot of spiders are pretty harmless, but redbacks are of particular concern.”
The line-up for this year’s series has been confirmed as the likes of Amir Khan, Rebekah Vardy, The Saturdays’ singer Vanessa White, ‘Made In Chelsea’s Georgia Toffolo and actor Jamie Lomas attempt to take on some of the gruesome tasks.
‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’ kicks off on November 19 on ITV.
Ant and Dec will once again host.
