I'm A Celebrity 2021 cancelled again with Monday's live show not going ahead

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! will not go ahead again on Monday night.

It comes after ITV bosses admitted they were "not in a position" to say when the show will return after a weekend of cancelled episodes due to severe production damage caused by Storm Arwen.

On Friday night the live show was cancelled for the first time in 19 years as bad weather hit Abergele, with ITV concerned the satellite link could be impacted. Then on Saturday this year's line-up, including Frankie Bridge and Naughty Boy, were removed from the castle as technical difficulties continued.

Presenters Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly also provided an update on Sunday night, revealing they were desperate to get back on the tele and the team was working "around the clock" to get things back up and running. You can read more on this here.

However, it's now been reported that Monday's live show has also been axed. It will be the third time in a row the show has been cancelled.

Speaking on ITV's This Morning on Monday, Phillip Schofield announced the news.

He said: "It's been announced that there's no live I'm A Celebrity tonight after the castle was hit by Storm Arwen over the weekend."

And in a fresh update, an I'm A Celebrity spokesperson confirmed when the show would return.

Speaking to WalesOnline, they said: "I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! will return from tomorrow night (Tuesday 30th November) on ITV and ITV Hub with a brand new show.

"Ant & Dec will be back presenting live from the Castle." You can read more on this here.

Instead, ITV will now air Freddie and Jamie's DNA Journey tonight at 9pm on ITV and ITV Hub in place of the planned I'm A Celebrity episode.
