ITV has confirmed that the 18th run of the reality TV show is set to hit our screens once more on Sunday 18th November at 9pm.

• Rochelle Humes to replace Holly Willoughby on This Morning during I’m a Celebrity
• Ant and Dec make NTAs shortlist as Jodie Whittaker picks up first nomination for Doctor Who
• The new I'm a Celebrity 2018 trailer has been revealed – but where's Dec and new presenter Holly?

The new series will be the first time the show has been co-hosted by Holly Willoughby, after Declan Donnelly’s usual sidekick, Ant McPartlin, chose to take a break from presenting for the rest of the year.

Willoughby, who is good friends with Donnelly, said at the time of her appointment, “I couldn’t be more excited to have been asked to stand alongside Dec for the next jungle adventure. I love Ant and want to send him my best wishes and support for a continued recovery.

"These are big shoes, not to fill, but just to keep warm for a little bit…”

However, Willoughby, 37, has since admitted she is “terrified” of the jungle critters she is sure to encounter.

“When is it a good time to tell Dec I'm scared of everything that moves?” she joked.

While no names have yet been officially confirmed for the 2018 line-up, a long list of celebs are being tipped to enter the infamous jungle.

Emily Atack, Lucy Fallon and Nigel Farage are among the early rumoured campmates for ITV's Australian reality show.

More recently, Love Island star Eyal Booker has thrown his hat into the ring to join the show, after a successful turn on E4’s Celebs Go Dating.

Other names include recent Strictly Come Dancing reject/comedian Seann Walsh, and Katie Price’s ex-husband Kieran Hayler.

Meanwhile, Harry Redknapp fuelled speculation he was entering the jungle when he said he “wasn’t allowed to talk about it” on talkSPORT breakfast radio in October this year.
