Ant and Dec break silence on 'brilliant' I'm A Celebrity 2024 line-up
Ant and Dec have posted a clip of their reactions to this year's highly anticipated I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! cast. The Geordie duo appears thrilled over some "brilliant" signings. In the short clip shared on their joint Instagram page this evening (Friday, November 1), the pair are seen sitting at a casting table and going through a list of names that viewers are not allowed to see.
While the names remain concealed, Ant and Dec shout "yes" in excitement and call a number of the celebrities "brilliant" and "really good." The ITV classic is set to return to screens later this month, but The Sun has unveiled the full line-up—and it includes some seriously famous faces. A source told the publication: "As always, the jungle bosses have cleverly put together a sensational line-up guaranteed to make for compulsive viewing."
McFly's Danny Jones has reportedly been brought in as a replacement for boxer Tommy Fury, who pulled out of the series before filming started following his split from Love Island co-star Molly Mae Hague.

An insider shared: "As well as bringing some of the star appeal of the group with him, he'll be supplying some serious guy candy for the campmates and viewers at home. " "All the McFly guys are gym fanatics and Danny in particular has a great physique - which he's bound to show off in the jungle."
Former Strictly Come Dancing pro Oti Mabuse - who left the dance competition in 2022 - is said to be "very much part of the ITV family of stars" and so has also secured herself a spot in the jungle. Loose Women's Jane Moore is also rumoured to be heading Down Under following her split from Garry Farrow after more than two decades of marriage.
Radio 1's Dean McCullough is expected to be a vocal presence on the show, while former 'X Factor' judge Tulisa is ready for her TV comeback after more than ten years away from the ITV talent series. Boxing legend Barry McGuigan and DJ Melvin Odoom are also rumoured to be joining the lineup, as well as ' Coronation Street ' veteran Alan Halsall, who has portrayed Tyrone Dobbs for a quarter of a century.
A source revealed: "Tyrone is one of Corrie’s most-loved characters so Alan comes with a ready-made fan base."
Maura Higgins, a former 'Dancing on Ice' contestant, will add some glamour to the jungle, while ' Gogglebox ' star Rev Richard Coles will share stories from his colourful life.
TikTok sensation GK Barry, also known as Grace Keeling, who recently joined the Loose Women panel, is also said to be participating in the challenge show.
Coleen Rooney, wife of footballer Wayne Rooney, is reportedly being paid a record £1.5 million to appear on the show, following her infamous Wagatha Christie feud with Rebekah Vardy.
