The hit reality competition will see duo Ant & Dec return to host the series starting on 21 November 2021 on ITV. Earlier in August, it was announced that, due to Australia’s border remaining closed amid COVID-19 restrictions in the country, filming for the UK version would be taking place at Gwrych Castle in Abergele, Wales for the second year in a row.

As part of the agreement with Gwrych Castle Preservation Trust, ITV announced it would continue to help support the ongoing restoration project of the site.

Twelve personalities from the world of acting, music, television and professional sports have seemingly been confirmed according to reports and will be battling it out to be king or queen of the castle.
