The public will also not have the opportunity to vote for celebrites to take part in challenges or to keep them in the competition. The celebrities will be competing against each other in a battle to become the first ever ‘I’m A Celebrity Legend’.

Are Ant and Dec hosting I’m a Celebrity South Africa?

There will be a lot different about the new all star edition of I’m a Celebrity - including the setting of South Africa - but one thing will remain the same. Ant and Dec will be returning for hosting duties in I’m a Celebrity Legends.

The duo have hosted the show since it launched in 2002, with Dec appearing in all 23 series - while Ant was replaced by Holly Willoughby in 2018 due to him taking time away from TV work.
