2020 will feature more returning shows for 10 than ever before, following several strong performers on its 2019 schedule.

10 has surprisingly released much of its Upfronts announcements ahead of its event later today -but kept the name of 3 new MasterChef judges under wraps until media are gathered.

Updated: Jock Zonfrillo, Melissa Leong and Andy Allen to judge season with returning contestants.

Network 10 Chief Content Officer, Beverley McGarvey, said: “A year ago we talked about cementing our position as leaders in escapist entertainment and promised we would have differentiated flagship content targeting our key target market of under 50s – 50 weeks a year.

“We delivered on that promise and Australians responded. We’ve seen year-on year TV share growth in all key demographics since August. 10 Play and 10 Daily have delivered record audience numbers. 10 All Access is an out-of-the-box success. Our 10 Speaks podcasts are winning new fans every day.

“This year we’ve successfully added new, multi-platform content that will grow in the years to come, including The Masked Singer Australia, Dancing With The Stars and Five Bedrooms,” she said.

“Those three new hits have joined a stable of proven performers including MasterChef Australia, Have You Been Paying Attention?, Gogglebox, The Bachelor Australia, Australian Survivor, The Project, 10 News First, The Bachelorette Australia, I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here!, the Melbourne Cup Carnival and many more.

“In 2020, our content will be everywhere – across all platforms – creating a playground that will ensure our shows connect with Australians like never before and get all of Australia talking.”

Julia Morris and Chris Brown return for a new season of I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here now in early January. Australian Survivor: All Stars hits screens in February with a second season confirmed for later in the year.

Also in February, Amanda Keller & Grant Denyer return for Dancing With The Stars -now filmed in Melbourne, in what is believed to be due to studio demands at FOX Studios.

Bachelor In Paradise screens early next year with The Bachelor Australia to take on the Olympic Games in July. The Bachelorette also returns.

The Masked Singer, 10’s most successful new series launch in almost 5 years, returns. Duh.

There will also be new seasons of Have You Been Paying Attention?, Gogglebox, Hughesy We Have A Problem, Kinne Tonight and, Taboo while 2018 pilot week entry Drunk History proceeds to series. 10 plans on making announcements around 2019 pilot week shows in “the next few months.” Pilot Week 2020 is also confirmed.

In local drama Five Bedrooms is renewed, plus more of Playing for Keeps and How to Stay Married. New drama The Secrets She Keeps, originally due in 2019, will air in 2020.

Perennial soap Neighbours will turn 35, over on 10 Peach.

Also confirmed are more of The Living Room, Ambulance Australia, Todd Sampson’s BodyHack and Bondi Rescue.

Sporting highlights include Melbourne Cup Carnival, Formula 1 2020 Australian Grand Prix, Bathurst 1000, Supercars, Rugby including the Bledisloe Cup and the MotoGP World Championship.

The Project enters its second decade and there’s more of 10 News First and Studio 10.

New international for 2020 are FBI Most Wanted, starring Julian McMahon, and (the long-awaited) The Gilded Age from Julian Fellowes (Downton Abbey) starring Christine Baranski, Cynthia Nixon and Amanda Peet. Also back is more of NCIS, NCIS: Los Angeles, Bull, FBI, The Graham Norton Show, The Conners, various Jamie Oliver titles and more.

Also confirmed are The Amazing Race Australia and One Born Every Minute Australia and Celebrity Name Game.

So what’s missing? Sunday Night Takeaway is not returning. Also out is Show Me the Movie and Changing Rooms. There’s no mention of My Life is Murder or Mr. Black as yet while Trial by Kyle is yet to launch.
