ITV has unveiled the first challenge of this year's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, and it promises a dramatic start. Instead of the traditional plank challenge, the celebrities will compete in a race to become camp leaders, beginning with a skydive.
The show kicks off with Strictly star Oti Mabuse, N-Dubz singer Tulisa Contostavlos, presenter Dean McCullough, Loose Women's Jane Moore, and McFly's Danny Jones at a luxury villa. As they wait by the pool, five helicopters hover overhead, one carrying hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly. The duo explain that each celebrity will need to parachute from their helicopter.
Before boarding, they must drink a revolting cocktail to determine the order of the skydive. Danny finishes first, followed by Tulisa, Jane, Dean, and Oti. Upon landing on a nearby beach, they meet the other celebrities: social media star GK Barry, former boxer Barry McGuigan, Coronation Street's Alan Halsall, WAG Coleen Rooney, and presenter Melvin.
The two groups then form teams: Danny and Barry (Team Orange), Tulisa and Alan (Team Red), Jane and GK (Team Green), Dean and Coleen (Team Yellow), and Oti and Melvin (Team Pink). They face a race involving rowing a boat that fills with water, with the winning team earning the privilege of staying in the Leader's Lodge.
