Coronation Street star Alan Halsall is reportedly back in contention to appear on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
The actor - Tyrone Dobbs on the cobbles since 1998 - had agreed a deal to take part last year but was forced to pull out at the last moment due to a serious knee injury.
"Alan was gutted when circumstances meant he couldn't be considered for the lineup last year," a show insider told The Sun.
"I'm A Celebrity producers were also disappointed because they often like to have a Corrie star in the mix, and he is a particularly popular member of the cast.
"Alan and the show bosses are just glad he's now in a position to be part of this year's show - though the official lineup is months away from being confirmed."
Halsall would be following in the footsteps of co-stars Sue Cleaver (Eileen), Simon Gregson (Steve), Andy Whyment (Kirk) and Jennie McAlpine (Tyrone's wife Fiz).
