Ant and Dec share first look inside I’m A Celebrity’s Gwrych Castle studio

I’m A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly have treated fans to a sneak peek inside their Gwrych Castle studio.

The Geordie duo took to Instagram on Friday evening to share a behind-the-scenes look inside the ITV’s new Welsh location – and upon first appearances, it doesn’t disappoint.

In classic Ant and Dec style, the presenters started off the video by bickering with one another over how much information to share about the castle.

Clearly overjoyed by the new spooky studio, Ant welcomed I’m A Celebrity fans in with open arms.

Meanwhile, Dec tried to calm his over-excited co-host down and attempted to ‘censor’ their new reporting grounds.

Ant and Dec entered the ‘haunted’ castle's studio through a huge medieval door which led them into a dimly lit room which featured a huge wooden presenting table which was scattered with an array of golden goblets.

The presenters went on to showcase an eerie looking full suit of armour which stood alongside their new presenting table.

The castle walls are covered in green ivy which cascades from the ceiling all the way down to the wooden floors.

Elsewhere, there’s a huge rug on the floor which boasts a rustic feel to the overall dark room.

Although fans were treated to a little glimpse inside the new location, Dec insisted that they were not allowed to see too much.

Alongside the video, the caption read: "CENSORED CONTENT️.

“Please do not watch. Especially the bit where we show you the ___ and ____’s in the ___________ - which they've done an excellent job on this year, wouldn't you agree?”.

And during the video, Dec says: “Actually most of the things are censored here you can't see anything before we go on air."

Fans flocked to the comments to share their excitement after laying eyes on the now infamous castle.

“I honestly cannot wait for it to start. It’s going to save 2020!” gushed one I’m A Celeb fan.

“This is going to be so incredible! Ahhhhh, I can’t wait!” another echoed.

While a third penned: “Beyond excited for this! LOOKS AMAZING!”.
