When will Noel Edmonds enter I'm A Celeb?
This year's I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here started on Sunday, November 18 at 9 pm on ITV.
However, Noel will be this year's late arrival, as The Sun Online exclusively revealed, so he won't appear in the first episode.
So, we'll have to wait a bit longer to see him take part in the jungle's challenges.
An ITV source said: “Bosses for I’m A Celebrity have been trying to sign Noel for years. He’s their dream signing.
“They have really pushed the boat out this year in terms of signings and have spent more than ever before. Harry and Noel are over £1million between the two of them, and they’ve spent good money on the likes of Nick Knowles and Rita Simons too. The bookers have been earning and spending their cash well this year."
How much is he getting paid to be on the ITV show?
The TV legend has secured a check of £600,000 for his I'm a Celeb 2018 appearance.
That is £100,000 more than football manager Harry Redknapp, who is this year's second-highest earner.
An ITV source commented on the money spent on celebrities' fees, saying: "They’ve spent so much that there’s only 11 contestants planned at the moment.
"That’s the first time since 2007 it’s been so few, but the characters will make up for it.”
When is I'm A Celebrity 2018 on TV?
I'm A Celebrity 2018 launched on Sunday, November 18, on ITV and airs nightly at 9pm.
If you miss the show you can watch it on ITV+1 or catch up via the ITV hub.
The series usually runs for about three weeks and if it follows the previous format and length fans can expect this year's jungle king or queen to be crowned around the second week of December.
This year the show is presented by Holly Willoughby and Declan Donnelly as Ant McPartlin takes an extended break from TV.
If you haven't had your fill of the jungle, you can switch over to ITV2 for Extra Camp immediately after the main show for behind the scenes footage, guests and interviews.
Viewers are invited to join the lively debates via social media and the app as well as putting their questions directly to the campmates live in the studio once they’ve left the Jungle.
