There are weeks to go until the latest crop of housemates enter the Celebrity Big Brother house, but the rumour mill is cranking up.
We round up the stars – and the non-stars – who have been linked to the next series.
Helen Flanagan

Helen has previously been quoted as saying she would do Celebrity Big Brother, and she’s no stranger to reality TV having already braved the jungle for I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!
Her people have so far denied she’s entering the house, but could they be bluffing?
Jaymi Hensley

Jaymi’s is another name doing the rounds, and it’s thought he is quite likely to become a housemate after his manager told RadioTimes.com that the Union J singer is a fan of the show.
“If they were interested, I’m sure he’d do it,” he teased.
Chris Steed and Stephen Webb

Googlebox stars Chris Steed and Stephen Webb have apparently been offered a fat pay cheque to enter the house.
The duo wouldn’t be the first Goggleboxers to try CBB – George Gilbey was a big hit when he was a housemate in 2014.
Michaella McCollum

Hmmm, Michaella McCollum might not be everyone’s idea of a celebrity – she is the twentysomething from Northern Ireland who spent two years locked up in Peru for attempting to smuggle cocaine.
Michaella has been tipped for a reality TV stint following her release from jail, with Come Dine With Me and Celebrity Big Brother apparently among the contenders.
Spencer Matthews

Made In Chelsea’s Spencer was rumoured to be joining the show in January, and his name is now back on the list for the next series.
It wouldn’t be Spencer’s first foray into the reality sphere – as well as Chelsea he went Down Under for I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in 2015.
Lady Colin Campbell

Lady Colin had to quit I’m A Celebrity for medical reasons, but she got people talking and it’s thought CBB bosses want her in the house.
However, the socialite might put herself out of the running as it has been reported that she would be after MILLIONS to move in.
