I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! (British TV series) series 19

I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! returned for its nineteenth series on 17 November 2019 on ITV. This series featured Anthony McPartlin's return as the show’s co-host, who was replaced by This Morning co-presenter Holly Willoughby in 2018, after deciding to take a year’s hiatus from television. He appeared again alongside Declan Donnelly. The series opening episode was watched by 13.17 million people.

Due to the bushfires in and around the region, Australian authorities put a total fire ban into place. This means that there was no campfire for the first time in the show’s history. Instead, camp mates were given a gas stove to cook on, and were required to pump gas as a replacement task to carrying firewood. Additionally, fireworks and sparklers could not be used when contestants crossed the exit bridge after being voted out of the jungle like in previous years, so they were replaced by confetti cannons. Also, despite it still being used as a prop in the jungle setup, the bath was not allowed to be used because of potential health problems due to the rusting of the metal.

A constant change in this series was the end of Bushtucker Trials involving the eating of live bugs. Whilst the stars can still be covered in live bugs, all bugs eaten will already be dead. This change was welcomed by wildlife experts and activists, including wildlife presenter Chris Packham.

On 8 December 2019, the series was won by Jacqueline Jossa, with Andy Whyment finishing as the runner-up. Whyment would return to the series four years later to participate in I'm a Celebrity... South Africa alongside other former contestants to try to become the first I'm a Celebrity legend. Whyment became the joint fourth and fifth celebrity to be eliminated alongside series 17 winner Toff.

Dingo Dollar challenges
As well as 'Bushtucker Trials,' celebrities have to complete 'Dingo Dollar Challenges' in order to earn treats for the camp. At least 2 celebrities will be chosen (by camp) to compete in the challenge. These challenges often are mental challenges, rather than challenges including bugs. They must complete the challenge they have been given in order to win 'Dingo Dollars'. After completion of the challenge, the celebrities will take the Dingo Dollars and head to the Outback Shack, where they will purchase one of two snack options, from Kiosk Kev. But, before they are allowed to take the prize, the other celebrities in camp must answer a question, based on a recent survey. If they get the question right, they will earn the treat, but if they get it wrong, the celebrities will go back empty handed.
