He’s gearing up for his big mainstream TV breakthrough on this year’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, but Angry Ginge’s journey to the jungle was anything but smooth—think total pandemonium right up to the wire.
The official lineup dropped on Monday night, confirming the social media sensation as one of ten bold celebrities diving into the Australian wilderness for Sunday’s explosive launch episode.
But behind the scenes? Pure chaos. Angry Ginge—real name Morgan Burtwhistle—was so chilled out that he was still scrambling to pack as his airport taxi pulled up, blaring its horn impatiently. And in the rush, he managed to forget a crucial wardrobe essential that’s bound to leave him in a sticky spot Down Under.

‘I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!’ TV show, Series 25, Arrivals, Brisbane Airport, Australia – 11 Nov 2025
A source spilled the beans to The Mirror: “Ginge is the definition of laid-back—he’d be the first to own up to being a total scatterbrain before takeoff. He jetted off to Australia with next to no clothes: maybe a single pair of trainers, a few shorts, and a couple of shirts. His suitcase was probably the lightest among all the stars—you could lift it with a pinky finger. Oh, and the kicker? He realized mid-flight he’d forgotten to pack any underwear!”
The 23-year-old touched down in Australia on Sunday night, navigating Brisbane Airport like a pro. Chatting with The Sun post-landing, he beamed: “I’m buzzing—first time here, so it’s gonna be epic.”
He cheekily teased that he’d crossed paths (or at least phone lines) with a few co-stars, spinning a hilarious yarn about his “real” reasons for the trip: “You won’t believe why I’m actually here… Last night, I got a random call from Kelly Brook saying she’s popping over to visit her Auntie Sheila and asking if I fancied tagging along. I thought, why not?”
“Then Lisa Riley rings up about doing Dingles Down Under and invites me. Again, I said sure. Next, Aitch hits me up about his tour, so I jumped on that too. And get this—Aitch’s mum calls saying she won two weeks in Australia from the Postcode Lottery and asks if I want in. I figured, might as well!”
Angry Ginge shares a tight bromance with fellow campmate Aitch, who’s also fresh off the plane in Oz. The gamer couldn’t resist a playful dig at the rapper ahead of their jungle adventure: “I’m not his biggest music fan, but he’s a solid bloke, so it’ll be a laugh.”
Rising to fame as a gaming streamer with a massive 1.2 million followers on Twitch, Angry Ginge has already tasted the spotlight—representing England in Soccer Aid (where he snagged Man of the Match honors) and cheering passionately for Manchester United.
On the topic of roughing it in the wild, he quipped: “Camping? I nailed my Duke of Edinburgh Bronze back in high school, so I’m not hopeless. But I doubt we’re talking tents here—Aitch doesn’t exactly camp on tour. No clue what Dingles Down Under entails, though. That’ll be a wild ride.”
Joining Angry Ginge and the crew in the jungle are icons like Spandau Ballet and EastEnders legend Martin Kemp, TV powerhouse Ruby Wax, and comedian Eddie Kadi. With this mix of personalities—and Ginge’s last-minute antics—the drama’s already heating up before the first Bushtucker Trial!
