Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly have begun filming the new series of I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!

The famous presenting duo posted a photograph together and also a video of them sailing along Australia’s Gold Coast to meet this year’s contestants.

Underneath a photograph of the pair, they captioned it: “On our way to meet the class of 2019.”

This year’s line-up consists of former England pro Ian Wright, Girls Aloud singer Nadine Coyle, reality star Caitlyn Jenner, former England rugby star James Haskell, Good Morning Britain host Kate Garraway, Capital Breakfast host Roman Kemp, BBC Radio One DJ Adele Roberts, former EastEnders star Jacqueline Jossa, comedian Andrew Maxwell and Rak-Su singer Myles Stephenson.

Later on, McPartlin and Donnelly were spotted shouting orders to the stars as they undertook the swimming task.

Coyle, Garraway, Wright, Haskell and Stephenson were spotted diving into the blue waters as they kicked off the series.

Some of the stars will also be faced with walking a terrifying plank suspended off a building.

The task, which is being headed by Kemp, Wright, Stephenson, Jossa, Maxwell and Garraway, will see them walk on to a very wobbly platform which is 343ft high.

Speaking to the Sun, executive producer Olly Nash said: “ It’s the biggest and most horrendous, wobbliest thing. We tested it earlier in August and we made it deliberately more wobbly.

“You have to go down a ladder. We’ve tested it and during the runs, getting to the end then turning around is absolutely horrendous.”

As the series continues, they will be joined by two more contestants who have yet to be revealed.

I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! will start on Sunday, November 17 on ITV
