I'm A Celebrity 2020 line-up in full and how much each star is paid

The I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here lineup has been revealed - a week before the show starts.

There'll be a coronavirus lockdown edition of the show, with the celebrities undergoing the hardships of living in a Welsh castle and taking part in bushtucker trials with something of a Welsh flavour.

The ITV reality TV favourite returns on Sunday November 15, but a warm-up show with past contestants is taking place this weekend.

The line-up for the 2020 Celebrity edition has been revealed, with speculation about how much each one of them is being paid.

Perhaps the most famous face will be Olympic gold medal winning sensation Mo Farah, who will be swapping running marathons with running the gauntlet of whatever bushtucker trials Ant and Dec will throw at him.
