The two behemoth programmes from ITV have finally given the public the date they have been waiting for since ITV bosses confirmed that a special crossover episode was on the horizon.

With the return of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!, fans are more excited than ever and now have a date in their sights. On Sunday 6th of November, fans will have the opportunity to watch two of their favourite shows come together as one.

You won't be seeing any Bushtuker trials in the episode, but instead, contestants will be dressed up in hilarious outfits as the viewers at home and the special panel guess who are behind the costumes.

ITV stated: "Before the famous cast can scream, I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here, the panel will attempt to guess who could be masquerading in costumes such as a Witchetty grub or a kangaroo?"

Former I'm a Celeb finalist Joel Dommett will host the show, but that's not all he will do. Joel's objective is to hunt down clues for the panel.

Mirroring the original Masked Singer UK series, the judges will be Jonathan Ross, Rita Ora, Davina McCall and Mo Gilligan. They will also be joined by an array of guest panellists throughout the episode.

The head of ITV’s Head of Entertainment Commissioning Katie Rawcliffe said: “What a perfect way to celebrate the return of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! than with a unique mash up of two hugely successful series. Viewers will get to enjoy all things Jungle with a wonderfully bonkers Masked Singer twist. With flamboyant costumes that pay homage to the iconic series as it returns to Australia, families will be able to play alongside our panel in TV's favourite guessing game.”

Below are some of the I'm a Celeb guests who will be entering the jungle this year.

Scarlette Douglas, TV presenter and Property expert, is ready to change the normal perceptions people may have of her. Douglas said "People know me for property and so it will be nice for everyone to get to know me better. I love music and goofing around!"

Hollyoaks star Owen Warner has stated from the get-go what his attributes are, or rather are not, saying "It is definitely not my cooking skills or brains!"

Former Love Island star-turned-presenter Olivia Attwood is ready for the jungle saying "I think people think I won’t be able to cope without make-up but I am happy to muck in."
