Last week, it was reported that boadcaster Danny Baker has signed up for the show. The 59-year-old is set to be the most expensive signing so far - netting him a mammoth six-figure sum, according to a new report.

The Sun claims the British radio DJ - who recently revealed he had beaten his six-year cancer battle – doesn't actually need the money but the offer from ITV was "far too tempting".

"Danny has become this year's highest-paid celebrity in the jungle so far with a six-figure sum," a source revealed. "He's a real broadcasting legend, so show bosses were desperate to sign him. Danny doesn't need the cash, but producers made him an offer he just couldn't refuse. He's a real curveball name, and they’re the sort ITV want."
