Davina McCall is reportedly wanted by producers to appear as a contestant on Celebrity Gladiators.
The classic competitive gameshow has been successfully revived by the BBC, averaging around 8 million viewers this year, with a second series already commissioned.
According to The Sun, a celebrity version is also in the works and former Big Brother host McCall is a top target.
The newspaper also names former TOWIE star Mark Wright and ex-Made In Chelsea star Spencer Matthews as potential celebrity contenders.
"The BBC want big name contestants with the kind of strength and agility needed to compete with the intimidating gang of gladiators," a source said.
"Davina is incredibly fit and already looks keen to be involved, even if she has only previously talked about lending her presenting skills.
"As for the blokes, the producers love the idea of getting the fellas in to see if their gym-honed muscles are just for show or if they've got genuine brawn."
The spinoff is likely to be filmed later this year for a broadcast in 2025. body check tags ::
