“Iain isn’t afraid to speak his mind,” a source said. “He regularly rants and raves on his TalkRadio show and his listeners should expect the same from him in the jungle.”

“He’s very much in the mould of Danny Baker, who was also a late arrival last year,” the insider added. “Expect fireworks.”

Former Scottish Labour leader Kezia Dugdale is also rumoured to be entering, in a move that could trigger a political backlash.

According to The Sun, Dugdale will travel to Australia this weekend for the ITV jungle show, which started on Sunday.

The 36-year-old is known for leading the Scottish Labour Party for two years, until she quit the role in August.

Right now the nine celebrities on the show following Jack’s exit include Made In Chelsea’s Georgia ‘Toff’ Toffolo; and Chelsea and England footballer Dennis Wise.

Joining them are Hollyoaks hunk Jamie Lomas; The Saturdays singer Vanessa White; and Boxer Amir Khan.
