“Launches next year and a live grand final from London where you will pick your winning duo”.

In April, the live I’m A Celeb legend episode was hit with more than 1,000 Ofcom complaints amid the Adam Thomas “bullying” row.
During the episode, all hell broke loose when Jimmy Bullard and David Haye confronted the former Emmerdale star about his heated clash with Jimmy in the jungle.
The back and forth caused the usually calm Ant and Dec to get riled up, as well as Sinitta and Gemma Collins storming off stage.
Former footballer Jimmy, 47, accused ITV of editing out clips of Adam, 37, dropping c-bombs during their argument in South Africa.
