Eamonn Holmes has hinted that he may be going into the Celebrity Big Brother house.
He sparked speculation over a possible appearance in the new series of the Channel 5 reality TV programme while presenting This Morning.
Holmes, 56, said: "Celebrity Big Brother starts this week - so I'll not be seeing you next week."
He added: "I can't say more than that."

The broadcaster has previously said his wife and This Morning co-host Ruth Langsford does not want him to appear on the fly-on-the-wall series.
"I have been asked to do Celebrity Big Brother and I say to Ruth, 'I don't think we can ignore this now'," he said.
"She is like: 'That is not happening. I am not having people see what you're really like. You and your underwear.'"
Holmes appeared during a live segment on spin-off programme Big Brother's Bit On The Side earlier this year.
