Promising to be the most competitive launch ever, the campmates will be instructed to pair up and partake in a number of challenges, competing against their fellow campmates in a bid to cross the finish line first.

It’s all to play for, as throughout the challenges there will be plenty of opportunities to overtake and fight to the finish.

The winning pair will be awarded the coveted title of the first leaders of camp, they’ll be exempt from any chores, will get to sleep in the Leaders’ lodge, and run the camp exactly the way they’d like.

The luxurious Leaders’ Lodge boasts two comfy beds with mattresses, shelter from the rain, as well as plush duvets and pillows guaranteed to keep them warm and snug during their jungle stay.

And that’s not all, as always in the jungle, the campmates should expect the unexpected as there’s a hidden twist guaranteed to shake things up which will unlock more power and additional perks than ever before for the camp leaders…

The challenge revelation comes after on Wednesday hosts Ant and Dec couldn’t contain their excitement as they fell to the floor after casting their eyes on the jungle for the first time this year. 

The duo, who have hosted the series since its inception back in 2002, were overcome with shock in a dramatic Instagram video as they walked across the balcony and looked out into the trees. 

As Dec fell to the floor, the pair burst into hysterics as they captioned the clip: ‘Us? Dramatic!? Never’ as the track What Dreams Are Made Of played in the background. 

Fans went wild in the comments as they shared the excitement for the new series.

They penned: ‘can’t wait!! You boys are so funny!!’; ‘I can’t wait to see my favourite duo on.…’; ‘Bring on the jungle. love it.’; ‘The trees are looking particularly beautiful I think it will be a great season’. 

While rumours have swirled for months about the stars set to be jetting to for a three-week stay in the rat-infested camp, first look snaps earlier this week gave fans a full glimpse at the lineup.
