ITV has finally revealed when they'll head into camp
Harry Redknapp and Jimmy Bullard were announced as latecomers to this year’s I’m A Celebrity South Africa – but there’s late and there’s late, so when is their arrival expected to take place?
We’re now four episodes in, and the pair are nowhere to be seen. But, fear not, they will actually join the campmates very, very soon, with ITV sharing a statement today (April 10).
Is Harry Redknapp in I’m A Celebrity South Africa?
Former King of the Jungle Harry Redknapp is still scheduled to appear in I’m A Celebrity South Africa.
The series was filmed last September, and it’s been confirmed that he’ll appear as a latecomer. However, after Gemma Collins and Craig Charles – also latecomers – entered camp relatively early on, questions have been raised about Harry and Jimmy’s whereabouts.
Earlier this week, hosts Ant and Dec’s latest podcast was released. And it shed a little more light on when we can expect the former footballers to appear on our screens.

I’m A Celebrity South Africa is then off air till Monday, and that’s when we can finally expect to see Harry and Jimmy. Better late than never, eh lads!
Ant teased: “We’ve got two more late entries coming at the end of this week. Then, from week two, it just goes off again to another gear. It’s just got everything,” he added.

Then, earlier today, ITV shared an update. In a statement outlining what to expect in tonight’s show, it was revealed that we will finally see Harry and Jimmy on our screens tonight. Then, they will enter the jungle proper on Monday.
ITV shared that the “two new late entrants” would be teased at the end of tonight’s show. The statement read: “Camp life as the celebrities know it is about to drastically change, with the late arrival of two new campmates, Harry Redknapp and Jimmy Bullard in Monday’s episode.”
“Finally!” declared one fan. “Can’t wait to see the bring the fun and drama,” said a second.
Where and when was I’m A Celebrity South Africa filmed?
The clue’s in the name, but instead of Australia like the main show, I’m A Celebrity South Africa is filmed at one of the largest game reserves in Africa, the stunning Kruger National Park.
Filming took place back in September. But, unlike the first all-stars series, the final will be live, and it’ll be held in London. Fans of the show will then be able to vote for their I’m A Celebrity Legend.
