Storm Arwen forces I'm A Celebrity live show to be cancelled for the first time in 19 years

Concerns over Storm Arwen have forced the cancellation of the live sections of I'm a Celebrity by ITV bosses for the first time in 19 years as a "precautionary" measure.

Fortunately the show will still go ahead, as Geordie hosts Ant and Dec have pre-recorded tonight's show when the production team put measures in place.

All the celebrities will remain in the castle, which the show has confirmed is secure.

An ITV spokesperson told the Mirror: "Tonight's I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! will be broadcast as a pre-recorded show rather than live due to the developing Storm Arwen and precautionary measures we're putting into place on production.

"Ant & Dec will record their links early evening and these will be played out during tonight's show. Our celebrities will remain inside the castle which is secure and we have contingencies in place to cover all weather scenarios to ensure the safety of our cast and crew."
