ITV 's popular reality show I'm a Celebrity...
Get Me Out of Here! is due to return to our screens towards the end of 2024. No broadcast date has been shared yet, but it almost always starts in the middle of November . It means we're only a month away from seeing celebrities, mainly known to a British audience, head to Australia, and do tasks such as dealing with spiders and snakes.
I'm A Celeb isn't everyone's cup of tea, but this winter, there's a possibility that a whole host of football fans will be tuning in. Former Sunderland and Wolves boss Mick McCarthy is rumoured to be appearing on the show. According to independent Ipswich Town website TWTD , McCarthy is being lined-up to appear on the programme.
The 65-year-old has been out of work since April 2023, after leaving Blackpool . A managerial career that has spanned 31-years might be put on hold though as excitement builds to see if McCarthy appears on the programme. Should McCarthy enter the jungle, it will be interesting to see how he fares.
Former Pompey boss Harry Redknapp entered the jungle in 2018, and became the first football personality to be crowned the king or queen. Redknapp shared the jugle with Anne Hegerty, a star from The Chase, as well as Noel Edmonds, and Eastenders actress Rita Simons who played Roxy Mitchell. It was Emily Atack, most known for being Charlotte in the hit E4 series The Inbetweeners that Redknapp beat to the top prize with Doctor Who actor John Barrowman finishing third.
