Leading the 2026 cast is Nigel Farage. If you’re thinking, “Wait, isn’t he the Brexit bloke?”—yes, yes he is.
Love him or loathe him, his presence guarantees fireworks, especially when paired with the other campmates. Think of him as the human version of a wasp at a picnic: annoying to some, but you can’t look away. On the flip side, we have Sam Thompson from Made in Chelsea. He’s pure, unfiltered joy—like a golden retriever who’s just discovered a tennis ball. If you need a daily serotonin boost, Sam’s reactions to the Bushtucker Trials will deliver.

Josie Gibson from This Morning is a fan favorite before she’s even done a trial. Her warmth and Bristolian charm scream “mum friend who will steal your sleeping bag for a laugh.”
Then there’s Danielle Harold, fresh off her EastEnders exit as Lola Pearce-Brown. She’s already proven she can handle dramatic exits—now she just needs to handle spiders. Meanwhile, Fred Sirieix, the suave maître d’ from First Dates, is here to bring class and probably a shocking confession about how he folds napkins. Practical tip: Watch how Fred handles the cooking tasks. If he complains about the seasoning, you’ll know he’s truly suffering.
