Bosses of the ITV show have discussed with the owner of Gwrych Castle about extending their deal.
The fear is that if restrictions on travel and local lockdowns continue that will make it impossible to return to the usual location in Murwillumbah, Australia, with a source telling us: "
“As with this year, producers are looking at all possible eventualities.
“There is a very real chance that the show will be in the UK again next year, so they are trying to get their ducks in a row and have a plan B like this time around."
