This year's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! cast has game players, scene stealers, warrior women and charmers who could go on to win the show.
It's just a few days before they head into camp, but it seems the stars have already given a lot away about whether or not they stand a chance of becoming the next King or Queen of the Jungle.
Body language expert and author Judi James has studied the official group picture of this year's campmates and told Mirror Online what people's poses reveal about their personalities.
Here are her thoughts...
Roman Kemp
Roman has many charismatic traits that could make him this year’s winner, from an ease in front of the camera to a great sense of humour and his pose here shows another signal of possible success: his ability to connect directly to the audience through the camera lens.
His leg-splay here suggests confidence and his overall posture makes it look as though he’s just sitting on his sofa at home, so he should be adaptable.
His grin is a ‘pinging grin’ that pulls you in and when he’s not smiling his huge eyes will form part of his joker narrative when he’s dealing with the critters. He’s young but there’s something about this pose that suggests he has an old soul too which should help him bond with the more mature campmates.
Andrew Maxwell
The way he stuffs his hands into his pockets suggests a tendency to offer a low profile right now, as though he’s slightly wary of the celebrity pecking order and his place in it.
His grin looks rather forced, suggesting some nerves but his symmetric, straight-to-camera pose suggests a down-to-earth approach and he could provide a necessary antidote to any diva behaviours in the camp.
Nadine Coyle
With that flattering leg-poke pose, the arched back and the glam smile and perfectly-groomed tresses, Nadine looks keen to take her A-list girl band credentials into the jungle with her.
Her VT included a lot of pseudo-infantile cute posing too, suggesting vulnerability and a desire to avoid conflict. Is she really that vulnerable though? In previous series of IAC women presenting like this have often been know to wipe off the slap the moment they leave the Versace and get stuck into the game in true warrior-woman style.
Ian Wright
The man has personality to spare and can pull in any of his roles in camp, from fun bloke to nurturing dad to strategic ex footie-player with a passion for winning.
His splayed pose suggests a natural scene-stealer and out of all the camp-mates he’s be the one I expect to be earning the most camera time for his humour and his entertaining responses to the tasks.
He says he’s terrified of many of the jungle tasks, but isn’t that a good way of earning even more screen time? Will he be this year’s Harry Redknapp? Hopefully he’ll stick clear of the spotted dick gimmicks and just work on being himself instead.
Caitlyn Jenner
She posed as a finger-snapping, sassy camp-mate in her VT but here she adopts a much more elegant, wiser pose with legs crossed and hands clasped over one thigh.
Her close-lipped smile suggests she knows what she’s doing on this show and might just surprise anyone expecting some Kardashian-style behaviours.
Caitlyn comes across as eloquent and intelligent on TV but will she get the chance to show that side if she’s in with a lot of screeching, camera-hogging housemates?
Jacqueline Jossa
Jacqueline’s talent as an actress is formidable but will it help her on a reality show like this? Reality stars like her husband always know how to play it script-less and milk the most out of each minute on screen but for talented soap stars the challenge is often greater.
Her hand-on-the-hip pose suggests a tough approach to the challenges of the jungle but the way her other hand just hangs in front of her torso suggests she might secretly be feeling well out of her comfort zone.
Myles Stephenson
Hopefully this guy’s appeal will become more obvious once we get to see his personality on screen because his poses and his VT don’t seem to be doing it.
He’s offering a rather sweet smile here but his body pose makes him look like the shy guy lurking on the outskirts of the party. Maybe he’s used to posing with his bandmates.
Adele Roberts
Adele came to fame on Big Brother so she must be good at surviving the reality TV experience. Having said that her body language here suggests quite high levels of self-effacing shyness, with a cheek-rounding grin and likeable but not showbiz-style smile.
Her leg splay suggests she might be athletic enough to shine during some of the trials though and her likeability signals could make her a hit with the viewers.
Kate Garraway
Everything about Kate’s body language seems to scream ‘What am I doing here?’ from the head-tilted smile to the very rigid fingers on the hand she’s placed awkwardly on her hip.
During her VT she was almost walking off camera before the shooting ended. All this should make her great TV on the show but how quickly will she be missing her comfy spot on the sofa in the warm GMB TV studios?
James Haskell
Strong and sturdy and clearly the man who will be looked to as the rock in the jungle, James’ rather awkward laugh and the way he’s fiddling with his fingers suggests he might struggle more than he thinks in the camp without his family and team-mates there for support.
For physical alphas like James the challenge can be great: they’re often the first to suffer on basic food rations and unlike sport where the will to win is a simple motivator, on a reality show like this it can be more about the will to be famous, show off and gain screen time that gets you through the toughest of tasks.
* I'm A Celebrity kicks off at 9pm on Sunday on ITV
