I’m A Celebrity sign Adam Thomas as new Extra Camp presenter alongside Emily Atack and Joel Dommett

HE finished third on I’m A Celebrity: Get Me Out Of Here three years ago – but now Adam Thomas is returning to the jungle in a presenting role.

The ex-Emmerdale star and last year’s I’m A Celeb runner-up Emily Atack have been signed up to co-host spin-off show Extra Camp.

They will join Adam’s 2016 I’m A Celeb co-star Joel Dommett fronting the new series later this year, after his former co-presenters Scarlett Moffatt and Joe Swash each left.

A source said: “Adam showed how brilliant he was on camera during his time on the show and has plenty of TV experience from his years as an actor.

He also knows the jungle inside out – and is sure to have great banter with Joel and Emily.

Adam couldn’t believe his luck as he found out and can’t wait to start.”
