Yes, I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! will return to ITV tonight with a new batch of insect-plagued celebrities – all of whom threaten to be as irritating as any jungle critter.

One man we won’t mind seeing again, however, is last year’s winner Carl Fogarty. The multiple World Superbike Championship winner was crowned King of the Jungle at the end of the last series and has confirmed that he is heading back to Oz to do a few I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here NOW! shows on ITV2.

“I’m going to go out there for the last week and do a few shows with Laura [Whitmore] and Swashy [Joe Swash] and then handover my crown to the new King or Queen,” Fogarty said. On his time in the jungle, Fogarty said: “I can’t watch it back. I just cringe, it’s like when I was racing. I can’t watch… It is hard. It is really hard… When you get asked to do a trial it’s amazing because there is so much waiting around. The best bit was winning, it really was.”

When he took the crown last year, Fogarty revealed that it was “the biggest thing that’s ever happened in my life”, which would no doubt have given plenty of petrol heads the hump. But clearly the man can’t get enough of the show. It’s a case of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Back in There!

What to expect ahead of tonight’s show?

Jungle twist

No, this isn’t a dance, it’s a twist to how the game is played.

The camp is to be split into two and Tony Hadley and Susannah Constantine will be the team leaders. Presenters Ant and Dec explained: “You two are now in direct competition with each one another. You’ll go head to head in a series of challenges before you reach camp. You won’t be doing it alone, you’ll do it in teams and right now is your chance to pick those teams.” And we can now reveal how the teams shape up.

RED TEAM: Tony Hadley (leader), Jorgie Porter, Kieron Dyer, George Shelley and Lady Colin Campbell

YELLOW TEAM: Susannah Constantine (leader), Yvette Fielding, Chris Eubank, Brian Friedman and Duncan Bannatyne

New additions to the jungle

The jungle has been spruced up, according to The Sun, who are out in Australia checking out the joint.

There’s a new throne that one celeb gets to sit on and rule the rest from – we’re betting it’ll be Duncan Bannatyne, and if it isn’t he’ll throw a tantrum. He’s already said he might leave the jungle early if he is missing his family too much.

Also the Lover’s Creek is back after a hiatus, where our favourite celebrity couple Peter Andre and Jordan first found love. Cute. Who will smooch there this year? Only time will tell, though this picture of Jorgie Porter and George Shelley meeting on the show suggests it’s most likely to be them. See below to find out who they are…

Added to this, Shelley recently told The Mirror: “I am looking for love. I’ve been looking for a girlfriend for a while. I’ve been single too long.”
