Strictly Come Dancing fans are eagerly awaiting the line-up for the 2025 series, and it looks as though one I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! winner could be swapping bugs for the ballroom.
The anticipation for Strictly Come Dancing is mounting as devotees of the BBC programme keenly anticipate the announcement of the contestants for 2025.
Speculation over the line-up, which is generally unveiled in September, is rampant with fans buzzing about potential celebrities they're keen to see strut their stuff on the dance floor.
There's chatter that viewers might witness an I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! champion trading jungle critters for samba steps.
During a segment on Monday's edition of Good Morning Britain, showbiz correspondent Richard Arnold spoke about Soccer Aid and hinted at Strictly pro Gorka Márquez scouting for his next partner, reports Edinburgh Live.
Prior to airing a pre-taped clip, Richard teased the audience saying: "He had one eye on the ball and the other eye on the Glitterball trophy as he uses the Soccer Aid experience to hunt for a new partner for this year's Strictly, but who tickled his fancy?"
In the footage, Gorka can be seen scoping out the talent, remarking: "For the last few days, I've been hunting celebrities for Strictly. There are so many here that would be good. Mo Farrah, I think he would be great.
"Big Zuu, would be amazing! Jill (Scott), They were like, 'Oh my god, we'd love to do it'."
Back in the studio, amid the buzz of names, anchor Susanna Reid threw a suggestion into the ring, proposing: "Vicky McClure, I would say. Have you seen her video of her Dancing at her wedding? She's got the moves! She would be fantastic, but she could be busy."
While the official line-up for the new series remains under wraps, speculation is rife with potential contestants set to grace the dance floor.
Names such as Stacey Solomon, Angellica Bell and Ashley Cain have been whispered as possible stars in the upcoming Strictly Come Dancing series.
After a standout performance in the Christmas special, Gladiator's Nitro has seen his name buzz around social media as a likely contender.
An insider told The Sun: "Bosses have been desperate to get Nitro on the series for a while. They were in talks last year but couldn't get the timings to marry up with his work."
Fans of the show can look forward to the premiere of Strictly Come Dancing later this year, with previous episodes available on BBC iPlayer.
