I’M A Celebrity has confirmed their full cast, releasing a series of images of the stars bundled up and ready for the British winter.

The lineup, which was revealed by The Sun earlier this week, was announced at the end of a two-hour special before the show’s return to ITV on Sunday.

Instead of the usual vests and light shirts that viewers are used to seeing in the Australian jungle, celebrities are seen in super-warm vests.

This year’s campers will be arriving shortly at historic Gwyrch Castle in North Wales for the show’s first series in the UK after the coronavirus ended filming for Down Under.

This year’s guys are TV host Vernon Kay, Olympics legend Mo Farah, soap opera icon Shane Richie, former Strictly dancer AJ Pritchard, and Radio 1 DJ Jordan North.

Meanwhile, the girls are Corrie’s Beverley Callard, former EastEnders actress Jessica Plummer, podcast star Giovanna Fletcher, Paralympian Hollie Arnold, and news legend Victoria Derbyshire.
