In case you didn't know, the start date for this year's long-awaited series of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! is now only a matter of days away, so get ready for some z-listers eating kangaroo shit while being egged on by Geordies.

However, the show could be in jeopardy, as a horrifying discovery of human remains has been made close to where the celebrities are set to camp.

The unsettling find is said to have been made by a group of walkers at around 11.15am yesterday, after they saw shoes poking out from the underneath of a bush.

Police Inspector Rob Graham said: "They saw a set of shoes... in the distance underneath the brush. It's around about 650 metres off the Aboriginal art trail.

"Scientific officers will methodically process the scene... they'll try to determine if there's been any foul play.

"There's a backpack and shoes and other personal toiletry items."

The Gold Coast Bulletin claims that the area in which the body was found, which lies north of the I'm a Celeb base in Springbrook National Park, is frequented by the homeless.

The Inspector added: "One of the lines of investigation will be that this area is known to frequent homeless people."

Police are now trying to identify the body, and it is expected they will carry out bone tests in the next few days.

An area close to an Aboriginal art trail has also been cordoned off, and is under police surveillance.

I'm A Celebrity is due to begin on ITV on Sunday November 19, with names such as Lauren Goodger, Jennie McAlpine Georgia 'Toff' Toffolo, and Charlotte Crosby said to be participating.
