I’m a Celebrity line-up in full as stars pose in uniforms and reveal biggest fears

The 2025 series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! finally kicks off this weekend on Sunday November 16 – here’s the line-up in full

The new series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! returns to TV on Sunday November 16 – and now we can reveal the full line-up.

In just a few days time, a new batch of famous faces will be heading Down Under to face more grisly Bushtucker Trials and try and win over the public in a bid to be crowned this year’s King or Queen of the Jungle.

Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly are of course back on hosting duties – but the 2025 series is set to have a few changes in store for fans. In a series first, I’m A Celeb bosses are said to be ready to show fans a “first look” trailer which will tease the upcoming events. This will also include the Bushtucker Trial video.

A source shared: “We know how popular the Love Island first look clip is, so we wanted to offer something similar for fans of I’m A Celebrity. Camp life can be both dramatic and hilarious and the new I’m A Celebrity first look clip will tease some of those moments ahead of the show airing that night.”

Murphy accuses Matchroom of ‘despicable treatment’

Shaun Murphy has accused snooker promoters Matchroom of “despicable” treatment over the timing of his match at the Champion of Champions tournament.

World number nine Murphy lost 4-1 to Lei Peifan of China in the 16-player invitational knockout at Leicester’s Mattioli Arena.

The 43-year-old Englishman felt aggrieved that he had to play the opening game of the non-ranking event, having only just returned from the International Championship in China, where he reached the quarter-finals.

“For me to be thrown out first is nothing short of despicable, and I think they have covered themselves in a huge embarrassment by treating me with such disrespect,” Murphy told ITV.

“I always pride myself on conducting myself as professionally as I can, try to treat the game with an incredible amount of respect.

“There are three other players in this tournament who weren’t even in China last week. The way I have been treated by Matchroom in this tournament is nothing short of despicable.”

In response, Matchroom said it spoke to Murphy afterwards and “share his frustrations”.

A statement read: “Our priorities are the players, we take pride in the fact they consider this event prestigious and want to prepare for it.

“For transparency and fairness, the groups [for the draw] are based on seeding. Scheduling is always a challenge every year, but we take on board the points and always strive to improve for next year and the future.”

Lei, ranked 31st in the world, opened up a two-frame lead before Murphy reduced the deficit.

However, Lei responded with a break of 61 to take the fourth frame with Murphy unable to respond in the fifth.

Meanwhile, England’s Judd Trump booked his place in the quarter-finals with a 4-1 win over Bai Yulu of China.

Reigning women’s world champion Bai, 22, won the opening frame of the first meeting between the players.

NAFDAC Alerts Public On Circulation Of Fake BETACLOX Antibiotic

The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has issued a public alert over the circulation of a suspected substandard and falsified antibiotic, BETACLOX (Ampicillin 250mg and Cloxacillin 250mg), discovered within Nigeria’s drug supply chain.

According to a statement released by the agency, the product contains fraudulent registration details and originates from an unverified source, posing a serious threat to public health.

The alert followed a report from a retail outlet in Zaria, Kaduna State, which identified the suspicious product after purchasing it from a distributor in Kano. Investigations revealed that the NAFDAC Registration Number (A4-4724) displayed on the fake BETACLOX package actually belongs to Mebendazole 500mg, manufactured by Chi Ltd., indicating a clear case of number misappropriation.

The fake product, allegedly imported by Freeview Pharmaceutical Ltd., lists its address as No. 128 MCC Road, Calabar, Cross River State. However, verification by NAFDAC confirmed that the genuine Freeview Pharmaceutical Ltd. is registered at No. 101 MCC Road, Calabar, further exposing inconsistencies suggesting unauthorized use of the company’s identity.

Details of the falsified product include:

Product Name: BETACLOX (Ampicillin 250mg and Cloxacillin 250mg)

Batch No.: 230701

Manufacturer: Saeny Laboratory Pvt. Ltd., Kerala, India

Manufacturing Date: 07/2023
ExpiryDate: 07/2026

Fake NAFDAC Reg. No.: A4-4724

All NAFDAC zonal directors and state coordinators have been directed to conduct surveillance and mop up the falsified product across all regions. Distributors, pharmacists, and healthcare providers are urged to remain vigilant, ensuring that medicines are obtained only from authorized suppliers and checking product packaging for authenticity.

Members of the public are advised to report suspicious products to the nearest NAFDAC office or call their toll-free number
