Ant and Dec have revealed names of stars who will be taking part in the upcoming I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! spin-off. They made the announcement during Saturday Night Takeaway.
The new spin-off was revealed last year in an Instagram post by the popular presenting duo. At the time, they confirmed that the new iteration - which has been pre-recorded - would be welcoming back stars from the original show's past and would be filmed in an all new location, reports the Mirror.
I'm A Celebrity has been running since 2002 and would usually be filmed in Australia. Alongside the spin-off, there will also be a new series of the regular edition later this year.

The news was first announced when Ant and Dec posted a video to Twitter last year. In the video, Dec said: "Hello everybody, we've got news for you.

ITV has confirmed that I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! South Africa will begin airing from April this year. It is expected to start once the current series of Saturday Night Takeaway ends.
