However, there will be a small wait for the South African series to air, as it was revealed to be hitting our screens next year, while this year will see a return to the Australian jungle with a brand-new crop of celebrities.
We can't wait to see which of our favourites will be returning once again, but the rumour mill has been in full swing for the return to Australia. Among our potential celebs are EastEnders star Danny Dyer, former Strictly Come Dancing professional Oti Mabuse, Good Morning Britain's Richard Madeley and Boy George.
