As viewers tune in to watch the first episode of I'm A Celebrity..Get Me Out Of Here, this year's batch of hopefuls, vying for a place in the final, will be full of smiles and pleasantries.
And while it may appear that everyone is getting on like a house of fire, a feud between two campmates could be bubbling under the surface, as they become accustomed to life in the jungle.
The two celebrities in question are social media star GK Barry, 25, and presenter Dean McCullough, 32. When speaking to the MailOnline, Dean claimed that he was a "glass half full kind of guy", who refuses to accept those who are happy to "put their feet up".
Meanwhile GK voiced the complete opposite as she not only said that she was a "glass half empty kind of girl", she also quipped that she was using the TV show to "have a relaxing couple of weeks in a hammock".
By her own admission, GK boldly said: "I won't bring much to the camp, or clean much."
Issuing a stern warning to his campmates ahead of the show tonight, Dean said: "There could be a few people on that lineup who think, 'I'm just going to sit this one out, I'm not going to do the washing up' but yes they are."
He added: "A clean camp is a Happy Camp, and that's my motto. I'm very clean. I like things to be in order, and I'm happy to do the washing, I'm happy to do the dunny, but I don't want anybody in there that thinks they can put their feet up and have a lazy time because that's not going to happen."
In previous years, viewers have seen celebrities struggle to deal with either missing their home comforts, their family or simply their privacy. And when asked how he felt about low moments in camp, Dean explained: "In terms of, like, looking at the bright side and making sure the glass is always half full, like I'm your guy.
"I'm more than happy for us all to have a little bit of a whinge, just like, 'Oh my god, isn't today awful?' Like, we can't pretend it's nice all the time. That's not real."
He continued: "But if somebody wants to make it their whole personality, they're going to whinge about everything, it's such a waste of an opportunity. So I will quite happily pull that person for a chat and be like, 'Look, we're in the Jungle. You're going to have to just start smiling a little bit more. Like, come on, we can do this.'
"Because I don't want to be sharing experiences with people who just want to be grumpy all the time. You know what I mean? Like, let's not bring the energy down, that's something that would annoy me."
When asked the same question, GK said: "That's fine, you know, I'm not really bothered. I'm just here to have a relaxing couple of weeks, sit in a hammock and maybe eat a few maggots. I'm not here to get stressed." With the removal of the plank challenge, ITV bosses have replaced it with a race challenge.
I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! airs 9pm on ITV.
