Campfire clashes and jungle bromances are likely to be the order of the day as ITV1's survival reality series I'm a Celebrity... Get Me out of Here! returns with a new group of well-known names taking part in spectacular Bushtucker Trials and existing on a diet of rice and beans in the critter-filled Australian jungle.
Hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly once again head Down Under to oversee all the happenings, with rumoured celebrities this time around including footballer's wife Coleen Rooney and Corrie favourite Alan Halsall.
Here, Ant, who turns 49 on 18 Nov, and Dec, 49, tell us why they can't wait for the fun to begin...
What can you hint about the new line-up this year?
DEC We can't tease anything - you know better than to ask! But we can guarantee a really good set of celebrities this year. We're very excited about them.
ANT We're also very intrigued about some of the cast to see what they're like.
DEC And we've been very interested in reading all the rumours about who's possibly going in. Maybe there is some truth in it, maybe not. You'll have to wait and see. But we're very excited to get back out there for the new series and we hope you guys enjoy it!
Can you tell us any behind-the-scenes secrets from your jungle studio?
DEC Well, I can say that it's real tea and coffee in all our I'm a Celebrity mugs... I have green tea!
ANT And I have normal breakfast tea in my mug.
DEC But, sadly, we haven't got a stash of secret biscuits!
