I'm A Celebrity South Africa kicks off with Paul Burrell screaming through trial
I'm A Celebrity South Africa kicks off with all nine contestants set terrifying challenges on their way into camp - with Helen Flanagan and Paul Burrell screaming their way through the ordeals.
The ITV series sees the return of some of the most memorable campmates and, just like in the original show, it kicks off with challenges to win food for camp before they get there.
And these are some of the scariest the show has ever seen.
First up Carol Vorderman, Jordan Banjo, Amir Khan take part in the Deadly Drop Challenge which includes a dramatic 50 metre bungee-style drop and memory test.
Former Countdown star Carol, 62, is left dangling on a rope over a mountain.

Next Janice Dickinson, Paul Burrell and Shaun Ryder take on the Trees of Torment Challenge - a new hell hole-style trial on water.

Finally after flying in via helicopter Phil Tufnell, Helen Flanagan and Fatima Whitbread get to try something new called Newton’s Cradle - the hardest challenge of the three.
They are on suspended balls 2000 feet above the ground and they have to jump from ball to ball before grabbing a giant star.
Helen Flanagan is back to conquer her fears (ITV/REX/Shutterstock)Helen, famous for quitting trials in her first I'm A Celeb experience in 2012, had vowed to be braver this time around for her three children.
But the 32-year-old soap actress shows her nerves and comes close to quitting before she even takes on first trial.
She says: "I don't think I've ever been more nervous in my life. I feel sick. I can't think of anything worse but I've got to do it. I wish I was watching this at home instead of actually doing it.
"I don't like heights they make me feel sick."
She eventually does bravely have a go and talks to herself as she goes along. Viewers will see tonight exactly how she and the others get on and how many stars are won.
The nine contestants will be shown entering camp and beginning life in the South African bush where Ant and Dec warn them to "expect the unexpected".

The show was pre-recorded last September so contestants learn of the queen's death whilst in camp. Janice Dickinson reportedly leaves with concussion after bashing her head and a number of contestants are expected as late entries.
I'm A Celebrity starts tonight on ITV and ITVX at 9pm
