You need a plan. Step one: Stock up on tea and biscuits. The show is on every single night, so you can?t be running to the shops at 9:30 PM.
Step two: Warn your family. Tell them the living room is off limits between 9 and 10:30 PM. This is not a request. This is survival.
Step three: Get a sweepstake ready. Bet on who will get sent to the Celebrity Cyclone first. It adds a little edge to the viewing. I usually bet on the grumpy one. They always crack under the pressure of communal living.
So, to answer your original question: Very, very soon. Mark your calendar for mid-November. Start stretching your thumb for the TV remote now. The jungle is calling, and it?s whispering your name.
Honestly, I can?t wait to sit on my sofa and judge strangers. See you in the jungle, friend. Don?t forget the bug spray.
