Things could be about to get even more desperate than usual in the ‘I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here’ jungle, after reports that ‘Desperate Housewives’ actress Teri Hatcher is set to take part in this year’s series.

Teri - who also starred as Lois Lane in ‘The New Adventures of Superman’ in the 1990s - is one of several stars who have now been reported to be taking part in the new series, which begins later this month.

According to gossip site Popbitch, the actress will be joined in the Australian outback by TV couple Nik and Eva Speakman, best known for helping members of the public overcome their phobias on their daytime show, 'The Speakmans' and 'This Morning'.

With just over a week to go until this year’s series kicks off, the line-up is really starting to take shape, particularly after Tom Daley strongly hinted that he’d be participating in the series on Instagram.

The Olympic diver was first rumoured to be headed Down Under back in March, and sent the rumour mill into overdrive on Thursday when he posted this throwback photo online, wearing nothing but some leaves:

Good to see Sinitta is still making an impact on the world of fashion, at least.

It’s been previously reported that former ‘The Only Way Is Essex’ star Gemma Collins is about to turn her back on the ITV Be docusoap to take up residence in the ‘I’m A Celeb’ jungle, while ‘Let’s Do Lunch’ presenter Melanie Sykes is also believed to have been lined up.

‘X Factor’ singer Jake Quickenden, who was eliminated from the singing competition last month, may also be among the stars who’ll be tackling Bushtucker Trials when the new series kicks off.

Here are some of the other rumoured celebs who may be gracing our scenes when ‘I’m A Celeb’ kicks off on 16 November...
