I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! is finally back on our screens for its 25th season (yes it's really been going for 25 years) and we are so happy to be reunited with Ant and Dec as they head into the Australian jungle and challenge a group of celebrities to take part in BushTucker trials, jump out of helicopters and eat all manner of weird things.

The cast heading into the jungle this year includes Aitch, Martin Kemp and Alex Scott, with Aitch reportedly being paid £250,000 to take part in the show. However, that paycheque is pretty small in comparison to some of the fees over the years, with at least two famous faces reportedly being paid £1.5million take part.

Here's all the details you need to know about the highest ever paid I'm a Celebrity contestants over 25 series.
