Ant and Dec have been getting to know their surroundings ahead of the arrival of I’m A Celebrity 2021, after taking a stroll around the Welsh countryside. 

The pair walked around Abergele near Gwrych Castle in North Wales, and seemed in good spirits ahead of Sunday’s opening episodes as they posed for a picture together. 

The pair smiled for a snap shared on Instagram, wrapping up warm as they took in the fresh air. 

They captioned the picture with the caption: ‘Windy Welsh walk. Which way to the castle???’  

Preparations are well and truly underway for the new episodes, which are taking place in Wales for the second year in a row due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

In the first photos from the set, large flames were seen shooting up around the castle to make for a dramatic entrance for this year’s contestants. 

Ant and Dec certainly seem happy to be back in Wales to host the new series, but not everyone is glad to see them back. 

They haven’t been given quite the warm welcome they would have wanted after a sign telling them to leave was put up near Gwrych Castle.

They posted a pic beaming and wrapped up warm in huge black puffer jackets adding: ‘We’re here! Just holding the fort until our celebs arrive.’
