I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! 2025 launch episode spoilers - how to watch and full cast list

The wait is over, I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! 2025 arrives on screens tonight with an impressive array of famous faces hoping to make it through their time in the jungle relatively unscathed. The launch episode is going to kick off with a whole load of nastiness in a baptism of fire in the Australia outback.

The celebrities will face slime, snakes and offal before making their way into camp during the first episode of the series. The reality TV show, hosted by Anthony McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, which sees a group of celebrities face challenges to win food while living in a jungle camp in Australia, returns to ITV1 on Sunday (November 16).

The long running series first series aired in 2002 when Radio DJ Tony Blackburn was crowned King of the Jungle. Since then, twenty-four series have aired up 2024's series with Katie Price and Peter Andre famously meeting on the show in series 3, getting married in 2005 and divorcing in 2009.

The first show of 2025 will see Aitch, real name Harrison Armstrong, Kadi, McGarty, Brook and Kemp skydive from a helicopter on to a beach. The five celebrities will then have to wade through offal and slime to find a key fob that will gain them access to a getaway car taking them to camp.

The contestants in the getaway car will enter the jungle with cocktails, canapes and steak on offer, but the celebrities in the other van will share their ride with some critters. The five other campmates, Wax, Riley, Osbourne, Scott and Burtwistle, will arrive at a luxury villa before battling it out for a seat in the getaway car.

The celebrities will be asked to put their hand in a box of green ants to unscrew bolts and release the car fob, and will also have their heads placed inside boxes filled with snakes.

Osbourne, who recently celebrated his 40th birthday, said he is “not a big bug person” and feels “very nervous” for the show. The TV presenter, who is mourning the death of his father, heavy metal star Ozzy Osbourne, said his mother Sharon and sister Kelly have given him their full support. He added: “Mum and Kelly, yeah they are absolutely going to be watching. They are supportive.”

Brook, 45, who previously said she would never do the show, said she is “really petrified of heights”. She said: “I’m such a fan of the show that I thought, ‘Maybe I could do it, maybe I could cope.’ I won’t know unless I try and so I am going to throw myself into it.”

Pop star Kemp, 64, said his son, radio host Roman, who went into the jungle in 2019, gave him some advice for his stint on the show. He said: “He told me to go in and enjoy it all. He said it’s the most fun he has ever had and he said, ‘I am really jealous; I know how much fun you are going to have.’”

Elsewhere, former Lioness Scott, 41, said her girlfriend, pop star Jess Glynne, thinks she is “absolutely mental” for going on the show. She said: “She will be my biggest supporter, and my mum absolutely loves the show. Thinking of her tuning in every night will bring a tear.”
