ITV has announced a one-off edition of The Masked Singer themed around I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

The crossover event has been commissioned to mark the return of I'm A Celebrity to the Australian jungle for the first time since 2019 due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The episode will see mystery celebrities take to the stage to perform in costumes such as a Witchetty grub or a kangaroo in front of host Joel Dommett and judges Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall, Rita Ora and Mo Gilligan.

Katie Rawcliffe, head of entertainment commissioning at ITV, said: "What a perfect way to celebrate the return of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! than with a unique mash up of two hugely successful series.

"Viewers will get to enjoy all things Jungle with a wonderfully bonkers Masked Singer twist.

"With flamboyant costumes that pay homage to the iconic series as it returns to Australia, families will be able to play alongside our panel in TV's favourite guessing game."

The episode is expected to air ahead of I'm A Celebrity's return at the end of October.
