Every question will be an opportunity to win big sums of money and climb the money ladder.
However, if the contestants get overconfident or push their luck too far they could crash out and lose everything.
What did Ant and Dec say about their new job?
Ant said about the show: “We’re genuinely so excited to launch this new series.
“It’s something we’ve been developing with Hello Dolly and ITV for a while now and we can’t wait for you all to experience it. We hope you love it as much as we do.”
Meanwhile, Dec also chimed in and said: “It’s been a number of years since we launched a brand new TV format, it’s not something we do very often!
“But we’ve hit on something that is groundbreaking and innovative, and that’s why we are so excited to host this series and bring it to the nation.”
What’s the latest on I’m A Celebrity?
Before the new Ant and Dec quiz show, the duo has got the little matter of the new series of I’m A Celebrity in November.
Like last year, the new (21st) series will be filmed at Gwrych Castle in Wales because of Covid restrictions.
However, preparations have taken a hit after vandals trashed the castle before it was handed over to ITV.
A spokesperson told The Sun: “It was a huge shame to see that somebody damaged one of the restored battlements on the east lawn on our last day.”
