Brendan Cole is excited for a ‘new challenge’ as he sings with Jeremy Edwards

SIMON Cowell is getting ready to unleash X Factor: Celebrity and with it comes Cole and Edwards.

But just who are the singing duo? Here’s the lowdown.

Who are Cole and Edwards?

Brendan Cole found fame on Strictly Come Dancing, while Jeremy Edwards has appeared on Hollyoaks and Holby City.

The dancing professional is excited to try a “new challenge” following his departure from the BBC One dance competition.

A source previously told The Sun Online: “For Brendans part, he’s excited about the prospect of a new challenge.

Its also not lost on him that appearing on a rival channel in a big prime time slot is a bit of a two fingers up at his old bosses at the BBC.

The duo have chosen the original name – Cole and Edwards.

The duo will be hoping to impress Simon Cowell

How does The X Factor: Celebrity work?

Well, pretty much the same as the original version but just with some famous faces.

Our household names will be taking to the stage to impress the judges and viewers alike in the hopes of make it through to the next round and eventually being crowned winner.

The all-star version follows a very similar format to the original show, including the contestants flying out to an exotic location for the Judges’ Houses round.

So it remains to be seen who’s vocal range will be enough to get them the top spot.

When does The X Factor: Celebrity start?

The official start date for The X Factor: Celebrity starts TOMORROW (October 12).

It will be on at 8.35pm on ITV, so set your reminder now!

The usual X Factor series would have already begun by now – but was replaced by the BGT: Champions spin-off show.
