Jim Davidson is set to cause controversy on Celebrity Big Brother in January.
The comedian, who previously called Big Brother's homosexual host Brian Dowling a "shirt lifter" and a "f***ing disgrace" when they were on Hell's Kitchen together, has reportedly signed up for the programme.
An insider said: "He got himself into a lot of trouble when he was on Hell's Kitchen with Bria,n but hopefully he will be on better behaviour with him this time. It's true there is no love lost between the pair of them but Brian is a professional and this is part of his job."
Brian will interview Davidson when he enters the infamous Celebrity Big Brother house, and when he leaves the show. The pair are not thought to have properly spoken since the Hell's Kitchen incident.
A number of other stars are also rumoured to be taking part in next year's programme, including former EastEnders actress Gillian Taylforth, who portrayed Kathy Beale for 15 years, and Page 3 model Lacey Banghard.
US reality TV stars Spencer Pratt and his wife Heidi Montag, Steps singer Claire Richards and X Factor contestant Rylan Clark have also been linked to the show.
Celebrity Big Brother returns to Channel 5 on January 3.
