The Scottish pundit will certainly have some stories to tell, having recently revealed he was once targeted by a crazed female fan who had escaped from prison.

A source told The Mirror: “Ally has such a huge fan base thanks to his years of commentating and punditry, plus his long stint on A Question of Sport.

“He’d be great for the jungle – as his wife and kids have been telling him forever – so everyone is really hopeful that this will be the year.”

The Sun previously revealed stars Tulisa Contostavlos, dancer Oti Mabuse and Corrie’s Alan Halsall have been scouted this year.
