Ant McPartlin has made his return to I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! after his year-long hiatus and he couldn't be happier.
The presenter gushed about his love of spending time in Australia for the ITV show with his best friend Declan Donnelly.
After Holly Willoughby stepped in for Ant last year following his drink driving conviction, the host took time out from his presenting duties.
But now he's back and told how thrilled he is to get back to the jungle: "I’m very, very excited about getting back on the show.
"It’s a brilliant place to work and a brilliant part of the world to be in. Plus, I’m back with my best friend. I can’t wait."
Speaking to the Sun about their favourite moments over the years ahead of the launch the duo listed Royal butler Paul Burrell's Hell Holes trial, Dean Gaffney’s live trial, and Gillian McKeith fainting as some more memorable events.
They also shared their best contestants including Stacey Solomon, Harry Redknapp, Phil Tufnell, Amir Khan and David Gest.
Although they claim never to have a least favourite, Ant did point out that Katie Hopkins wasn't particularly memorable.
"You wouldn’t really remember her doing it, as she didn’t really shine," he remarked.

The pair also shared that they have never tucked into any of the creepy crawlies the poor campmates have to eat in their trials.
Dec said: "Absolutely not. We stay in a lovely apartment on the beach, where we have steak and chips."
The first episode of the nineteenth series aired on Sunday night with a star-studded line-up hoping to become this year's King or Queen of the jungle.
