Popular Channel 4 reality show The Circle returned to our screens last night, but this series is a little different.
This is The Celebrity Circle, a special celebrity version of the show in aid of Stand Up To Cancer.
The first episode introduced us to the celebrity cast, which includes the likes of Saffron Barker, Denise Van Outen and Lady Leshurr, and the new format has had a great reaction.
However, viewers have a few questions about the show. When was The Celebrity Circle filmed? Let’s find out…
After watching the first episode of the Celebrity Circle last night, many viewers were intrigued to know when the show was filmed, especially as the past year has been dominated by Covid restrictions and lockdowns.
Luckily, one of the cast members spilled all the details and revealed exactly when the Stand Up To Cancer special was filmed, and the answer is September 2020.
YouTuber and influencer Saffron Barker took to her Instagram Story prior to the episode airing to reveal that it was filmed “pre-Covid”.
Then, her followers got a bit confused about what that meant, so she clarified that it was filmed in “around September time”.
How long were the celebrities living in the apartment block?
Well, The Circle usually lasts for roughly three weeks, and the whole cast lives in the flats until they are booted out of the show. However, The Celebrity Circle is a little different.
The Celebrity Circle is only on for one week, beginning on Tuesday, March 9th and concluding on Monday, March 5th.
So, the celebrities lived in the apartment building for a week.
With it’s big illuminated circle on the front, The Circle building is now very well known, but where is it?
The celebrities moved into the same apartment block that has been used in every series, and it’s located in Salford, just 15 minutes from Manchester city centre.
It’s called the Adelphi Wharf apartment block and comprises of 206 self-contained luxury flats where members of the public actually live.
