Celebrities are slowly beginning to arrive in Australia ahead of the new series of I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here, and the line-up is already looking incredibly exciting.
With arrivals including rapper Tinchy Stryder and Corrie's Craig Charles, there's quite the mixed bag too.
Due to join them this week are TOWIE star Gemma Collins and TV presenter Melanie Sykes, no doubt equipped with their skimpiest bikinis to take on the jungle critters.
There's models, soap stars and reality TV personalities, so there's bound to be some clashes - and we've rounded up the big names confirmed so far:
Gemma Collins
TOWIE star Gemma has been confirmed to be entering the jungle next Sunday, following her appearance on Splash! earlier this year.
Quite the 12 months it's been.
A source on the show said that whilst there were some alterations being made to the contestants, Gem has now arranged her flights and could be out in Australia any day.
Gemma, 33, joined The Only Way Is Essex during its second series in 2011 and has been a main character ever since. But her appearance in the jungle means she will not be returning in 2015 as she tries to get her own TV show like Joey Essex did following his stint on I'm a Celebrity.
Melanie Sykes
Just as we got the news Gemma would be going down under, we revealed Mel would be joining her.
And taking her stunning body with her of course.
A show insider told us: "Mel and Gemma are two great names who will be very familiar to ITV viewers. Both of them are not slow in coming forward in conversations and have been photographed in bikinis before, so they tick lots of boxes for the jungle.
"We're juggling things around but confident that we are going to get a great mix in time for the show."
Neither Gemma nor Mel have been spotted in Australia yet.
Tinchy Stryder
Rapper Tinchy Stryder was the first celebrity to land in Australia this weekend.
The 28-year-old, real name Kwasi Danquah III, will be hoping to become a household name thanks to his appearance on the ITV show.
A show source said: “Tinchy always has been up for a new challenge and likes the idea of doing the show and getting a new audience for his music and business interests.
“He has been described as ‘the ultimate working class boy done good’ because of his success in music and business ventures and he saw this as another opportunity so we expect him to grab it with both hands.
“Bosses are hoping he will tell some anecdotes about his A-list friends and also get flirty with some of the single females in there too.”
Carl Fogarty
Bike fans will be getting revved up - after Carl Fogarty arrived in Brisbane as a shock new contestant for this year's I'm A Celebrity.
The 49-year-old from Blackburn is seen as the most successful World Superbike racer of all time in terms of the number of championship wins and number of race victories in the Nineties.
Now retired, the sportsman - nicknamed Foggy - has decided to take on a new challenge in the form of the hit ITV show.
Foggy arrived at Brisbane airport from Dubai early on Sunday morning wearing shades.
Vicki Michelle
Sitcom fans will be saying ‘Allo ‘Allo! to a familiar face on I'm A Celebrity - as actress Vicki Michelle has signed up.
The 63-year-old, best known for playing Yvette Carte-Blanche in the television comedy series 'Allo 'Allo!, arrived in Brisbane on Sunday morning from Singapore and was all smiles for the cameras.
She was not thought to be taking part prior to her arrival.
Since ‘Allo ‘Allo! she played the role of Amanda Newman in 2010 TV film Resentment and she was Deborah Whitton in the 2013 rom com The Callback Queen.
She also took part in Celebrity Masterchef in 2008 and in 2010 was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2010 Birthday Honours for services to charity.
Craig Charles
Coronation Street star Craig Charles landed at Brisbane airport this weekend, ahead of the jungle entrance.
The actor - who plays Lloyd Mullaney in the ITV soap - is another surprise name for the show as his participation hadn't previously been rumoured.
TV bosses have landed a massive coup by signing Corrie favourite Craig, so much so that he received special permission from soap bosses to go into the jungle.
Speaking to the Mirror, he said: "I signed up because Its an adventure isn't it? Its an ITV show, Coronation Street is an ITV show, they talked and said 'get him in there'.
"It's the one they all want to do, it the one all families sit down to watch."
Charles insisted he was not scared of anything but insisted he was worried about being away from his loved ones.
He added: "Obviously I will miss my wife and kids, miss the football, and reading and. writing, you can't read in there. That will be difficult I suppose."
Nadia Forde
Golfer Rory Mcilroy's ex-girlfriend, Irish model Nadia Forde is also heading into the jungle, and arrived at Brisbane airport this weekend too.
The 25-year-old model and aspiring actress and singer is rumoured to be a former girlfriend of golfer Rory McIroy.
She said: "The flight was really nice. I am a big fan of the show and I'm happy to be in Australia and love the sunshine
"I'm looking forward to the challenge ahead and yes I've packed lots of bikinis!"
Jimmy Bullard
Retired footballer Jimmy Bullard is set to be this year's cheeky chappy after signing up for the new series.
The former Fulham midfielder, 36, is a bit of a prankster - often playing practical jokes on his teammates.
But he admits he's worried about living off a diet of rice and beans because he "loves his food".
He said: "I will struggle on rice and beans. I love my food. I don't know if I will get grumpy without decent food. I've never been in that position before."
Michael Buerke
Michael Buerke has landed in Australia for his stint in the I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here jungle.
The legendary BBC journalist has touched down in Brisbane airport after flying in from Dubai.
He's said to have landed a £120k deal to star in the show and try his hand at the terrifying bushtucker trials.
The journalist and television host is sporting a new beard and appears very relaxed.
Kendra Wilkinson
Kendra Wilkinson is the shock new contestant for I'm a Celebrity 2014.
The 29-year-old reality star and former Playboy model has arrived in Australia and is quite the coup for ITV who have managed to keep her name out of the press.
She becomes the ninth celebrity to land Down Under and confirm their participation in the show.
Most well known for being one of The Girls Next Door on the E! reality TV show about Playboy magnate Hugh Hefner's girlfriends.
Kendra is married to American footballer Hank Baskett and they have two children together.
* This year's show kicks off on November 16 at 9pm on ITV.
