I’m A Celebrity… final six
Speaking to Mediaweek when the season launched, 10 ViacomCBS’s head of entertainment Stephen Tate said that border closures had had a major impact on production.
“There were people that were available that wouldn’t normally be available”, Tate said. “The current circumstances that the whole world finds itself in has changed the mindset of people going in there. They’re genuinely appreciative of the experience. And there is a kind of a change in the way they’ve interacted with each other. People in general, are much kinder, and more interested in each other.”
