Who Will Take Part In I'm A Celebrity 2024? Tommy Fury & Oti Mabuse Favourites
It's not too long until a group of celebrities enter an Australian jungle, where they will face creepy crawlies and hunger pangs aplenty.
Yes, I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! is just a couple of months away, and several stars have been linked to the 24th series, which has resulted in plenty of activity on betting sites.
Ant and Dec will be back to co-host the ITV programme, which, in the past couple of years, has been about the usual mix of celebrities with an influx of politicians creepy crawling their way into the series.
However, it was recently suggested that I'm A Celebrity bosses had banned politicians from taking part, meaning there will be no repeat of Matt Hancock and Nigel Farage's jungle squirming during dreaded Bushtucker Trials.
Jungle Fury
Another genre of celebrity who are often well represented in the jungle are sports stars, and this year doesn't look like being any different.
Boxer Tommy Fury - whose brother is fellow fighter Tyson Fury - has emerged as the new 4/7 favourite on I'm A Celebrity betting sites to take part in this year's series.
Last year, retired boxer Tony Bellew swapped the ring for camp, and former Love Island star Tommy could follow in his footsteps after he was said to be in talks.
A show insider recently told The Sun newspaper: "Tommy is a great name as a potential campmate as he’s already known to the ITV audience and he’d be brilliant in the Bushtucker Trials.
"Bosses are talking with lots of celebrities and are determined to make this year’s line-up one of the best."

It comes just weeks after Tommy and his former fiancée and fellow Love Island star Molly-Mae Hague split, five years after they met on the ITV2 dating show.
If he is in need of a change of scenery following the break up, then a stint in the Australian jungle could do the trick.
Should Tommy sign up for the show then he could be in camp with the likes of former Strictly Come Dancing pro Oti Mabuse, who is 8/13 second favourite, or even ex-This Morning host Phillip Schofield (Evens).
On The Loose In Oz
Other stars recently linked to this year's I'm A Celebrity series include a host of Loose Women panellists.
Podcaster-turned-Loose star GK Barry is just 6/4 on specials betting sites to fly out to Australia, after it was claimed in The Sun newspaper that the YouTuber - real name Grace Keeling - turned down Strictly in favour of a jungle boogie instead.
Olivia Attwood is also fairly new to the Loose Women panel, but she isn't new to I'm A Celebrity.
The TV presenter is 15/8 to sign up for this year's series after she recently confirmed she has unfinished business Down Under, following her short stint in 2022, which ended after just two days due to a health issue.

She told The Sun newspaper: "The jungle will be getting finished at some point, one thousand per cent. I can’t rest until I’ve finished it."
But the star has hinted this year's series might be too soon.
Another star who has been a guest panellist on Loose Women is EastEnders legend Natalie Cassidy.
She is just 3/1 to sign up for I'm A Celebrity, while fellow soap actors Alan Halsall (13/8), Helen Worth (5/1), and Natalie's former Albert Square colleagues Danny Dyer (7/1) and Max Bowden (10/1) could also be in the conversation.
Brazier Brothers Down Under?
One star who would surely be a hit in Oz is Jeff Brazier's son Freddie Brazier.
Freddie is currently competing in BBC show Race Across the World alongside his father, and after showing off some nifty navigation skills in South America, he could be a huge asset for camp in this year's I'm A Celebrity.
Freddie is just 7/2 on betting apps to appear on the show, while his brother Bobby Brazier - another of Natalie's EastEnders co-stars - is a 12/1 outsider for a go at the jungle.
Bobby took part in Strictly last year, alongside the likes of Zara McDermott, who is 7/2 for an I'm A Celebrity appearance this year.
If Zara did sign up for the programme, she could get plenty of tips from her boyfriend Sam Thompson, who was King of the Jungle in last year's series.
Others in contention include former Strictly judge-turned-Britain's Got Talent panellist Bruno Tonioli (4/1), and a host of Olympians past and present, including Tom Daley (7/4), Rachael Gunn (5/2), Keely Hodgkinson (5/2), Andrea Spendolini-Sirieix (4/1), and Dina Asher-Smith (11/2).
