How to Bet on I’m a Celebrity with Betfred

ITV have had a smash hit on their hands for over 20 years now, with the reality TV hit I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! and it shows no signs of stopping any time soon. The show puts celebrity guests in extreme jungle conditions, taking on ‘Bushtucker Trials’ that involve facing their worst fears and eating disgusting ‘jungle-based’ food. 

Here at Betfred we always cover the action on a nightly basis when it is being screened, so with that in mind, we’ve put together a short guide on how to bet on I’m a Celebrity…

What I’m a Celeb markets can I bet on?

• King/Queen of the Jungle – The winner of I’m a Celebrity is awarded the ‘Jungle Crown’ and named King or Queen of the Jungle. In the 23 series to date there have been 13 male winners and 10 female winners, although there have been six female winners in the last nine editions, so perhaps there is more of a trend towards women contestants of late. There have been four former sports stars who have picked up the crown, six actors, five musicians and aptly, five reality TV stars. We will have odds for this as soon as the celebrities have been announced.
• Next to leave the Jungle – There are nightly evictions after a week or so in the show, with the public voting for who they would like to stay in camp. The celebrity with the least amount of votes is then evicted from the jungle and this is a regular market you can bet on with Betfred.
• To do the next Bushtucker Trial – Similar to above, each day the celebrities will face a public vote to decide who will be next to face a Bushtucker Trial. These can involve being buried alive, eating various exotic food ‘items’ and having creepy crawlies poured over your head. Nice! It tends to be the case that the more unpopular celebrities will be picked to do these, although quite often if it becomes clear about a celebrity with a phobia, the voting public can inflict more unwanted agony on them.
• To make the final – This is essentially picking who you think will come in the top three of the contest. It can offer the chance of some shorter prices on your favourite who might not have enough to win but will possibly make it all the way to the final.
• Winner without market – Sometimes it becomes clear from an early stage that a contestant is a massive favourite to win (Jill Scott in Series 22, for example). In order to keep the betting competitive we sometimes release a Winner without Jill Scott market etc. This allows you to have more opportunities to pick who you think will come second overall.
