Alan Halsall has dropped a massive hint that he's signed up to I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! The Coronation Street actor, who has previously been rumoured to be taking part in the show, teased fans as he shared a photo of himself on Instagram, posing in a woodland area, wearing hiking boots and all. It was his caption that sent fans into a frenzy as he wrote: "........it's a jungle out there." Alan, 37, added a caterpillar emoji as well as a winking face emoticon.

His fellow Corrie star Ryan Thomas seemed to confirm that Alan is heading Down Under, as he replied: "Can't wait to see you in the jungle congratulations mate." Alan's girlfriend Tisha Merry, also from Corrie, posted a thinking emoji, while Sally Ann Matthews, who plays Jenny Bradley in the soap, commented: "No way could you eat kangaroo arse x."

The rumoured line-up is always a cause for excitement among I'm a Celebrity viewers. This year so far, a whole host of names has been bandied around, including Love Island fan favourite Maura Higgins, whose sister Becki told The Independent: "There is so much lined up for her but I would love to see her on I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! She would be terrified, but class on it — she'd be effing and blinding."

Danny Dyer also appears to have a very 'never say never' attitude to I'm a Celebrity, as he admitted on Good Morning Britain that the idea wasn't off the cards, joking: "You know me Piers, I've done a bit of reality TV." Great British Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain has also said she'd love to do the jungle, telling Lorraine: "I like being dirty and mucky and like the idea of living in the outdoors, flying out the planes. I wouldn't mind that [cooking for camp]. I don't know what I would do with rice and beans! There is something about being in the jungle that really excites me." Watch this space!
