The show will return in November!

Author: Alex RossPublished 22nd Oct 2021

As rumours continue to swirl about which famous faces will be entering Gwrych Castle next month for this year's series of I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, bosses have dropped a brand new teaser trailer confirming the show will return in November.

The 40-second long trailer features hosts Ant and Dec dressed as knights as they prep for the new series, heading to the now famous castle in North Wales on horseback.

Sharing the clip to their social media pages, the Geordie duo wrote: 'Clear your diaries for some mighty good knights on the telly this November! 😂🐴🏰 📺 #ImACeleb @itv'. (sic)

The new clip also seems to hint the upcoming series will be the most 'gruelling' yet, as the voice over says: "This year it shall be more gruelling than ever", before the infamous I'm A Celeb music plays in the background.

Although bosses are yet to confirm which celebs have signed up for the new series, just like every year, rumours are understandably rife.

Names such as Jade Thirlwall, Tommy Fury and Dame Arlene Phillips have all been talked about.

Check out all the rumoured line-up for I'm A Celeb 2021:

Alan Halsall

Coronation Street star Alan Halsall has been in the rumour mill for a number of years now and it's understood he was due to appear in 2023, before picking up a nasty ACL injury which resulted in him needing major surgery. It's now being reported that bosses are keen to sign Alan for the 2024 show.

Olivia Attwood

As fans will know, reality star Olivia Attwood was forced to quit the 2022 series due to medical reasons, leaving her gutted. Olivia later hinted she could return for the 2023 series, admitting she'd had chats with bosses during an appearance on Loose Women.

However, after Olivia didn't appear in the 2023 series, could she feature on the 2024 line-up?

Phillip Schofield

After leaving his presenting role on This Morning in 2023, rumours were rife that Phillip Schofield could take part in the 2023 series. As fans will know, Phillip wasn't on the line-up, but with reports suggesting he's about to make a comeback to TV, could I'm A Celeb be the platform he needs to re-launch his career?

Alex Beresford

Good Morning Britain weather reporter Alex Beresford has recently expressed interest in appearing on I'm A Celeb. He told the Mirror: "Out of all the shows I would love to do, I would love to do the jungle."


Alex recently appeared on BBC One's Celebrity Race Across The World.

Danny Dyer

Since Danny Dyer left his iconic role as Queen Vic landlord Mick Carter on EastEnders last year, he's been heavily rumoured for I'm A Celeb.


Of course, his family are no strangers to reality TV, with Danny's daughter Dani winning Love Island back in 2018.

Denise van Outen

The lovely Denise van Outen is no stranger to reality shows, having appeared on the likes of Strictly Come Dancing and Celebrity Gogglebox in recent years.


Denise has previously admitted she turned down the offer in 2021, so will 2024 be her year?

Sam Aston

Coronation Street legend Sam Aston hinted he'd love to take part in the show in 2021.


Speaking to OK! Magazine at the time, he said: "I've always said no to all of those shows, but then recently for some reason I've been more open to the idea. Jennie McAlpine and Andy Whyment did the jungle and both of them said it's the experience of a lifetime.


"If I was offered it I would be open to the idea and open to the extra pennies!"

The Vivienne

RuPaul's Drag Race UK winner The Vivienne recently admitted she would love to appear on I'm A Celeb during a chat with Lorraine.


She said: "Do you know what, I've never thought about it but what an absolutely amazing opportunity that would be."

Phil Taylor

Ever since he admitted he'd 'love' to appear on the show a number of years ago, darts legend Phil Taylor has been heavily rumoured every year. As he's not yet entered the jungle, could 2024 be his year?

Will Mellor

Following his stint on Strictly Come Dancing in 2022, it seems actor Will Mellor has the reality TV bug, as he's admitted to his friend and former co-star Ralf Little he'd fancy appearing on I'm A Celeb. Could 2024 be his year?

Richard Arnold

Good Morning Britain's entertainment presenter Richard Arnold is usually the one travelling over to Australia to report on the cast, but if rumours are to be believed, he could be taking part this year!

Last year's show, which was filmed in North Wales for the first time in history due to the Coronavirus pandemic, saw Giovanna Fletcher be crowned the winner ahead of Jordan North and Vernon Kay.

No official start date for the new series has been confirmed just yet, but we now know the popular series will land in November.
