A date has finally been set for the return of ITV’s ‘I’m A Celebrity…’

It's that time of year again!

ITV have finally announced the starting date for this year's series of I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here – and it's closer than you might think.

Taking to Twitter earlier today, the television station revealed that this year's antics will kick off on Sunday, November 19.

“Forget Christmas, this is the ONLY date you need to remember this year,” the tweet read.

While the official line-up of contestants has yet to be released, Saturday's star Vanessa White, Geordie Shore's Charlotte Crosby and Love Island's Jonny Mitchell, are among those rumoured to be heading down under.

The starting date confirmation comes amid fears that a series of strong cyclones could wash out the camp.

There was also speculation as to whether or not  Ant and Dec would return to host the 2017 series after Ant confessed to being hooked to painkillers following a knee operation earlier this year.

However, presenter of I'm a Celeb…Extra Camp, and last year's Queen of The Jungle, Scarlett Moffatt, all but confirmed that the presenting duo would be back on our screens when she revealed how excited she was to work with the pair once again.

Speaking at the Pride of Britain awards, the Gogglebox star explained: "I'm so excited to be back with Ant and Dec. The intention is that Ant will be there. We've spoken, yeah. He's doing well."

Winter telly has well and truly arrived!
