During an interview with actress Sunetra Sarker today (Sunday July 7), Tim Lovejoy hinted that he had signed up to the show.

“There was a real interest in the way he was asking me,” she said. “He’s such a good interviewer, I thought he was that interested in the show.”

“I’m thinking jungle,” she continued, gesturing towards Tim.

The presenter replied: “I am in it this year. It’s a done deal.”
