Harry Clarke won The Traitors earlier this year and scooped the £95,000 prize money.

Now he's eyeing up a stint in the jungle when I'm a Celebrity returns in November.

A TV insider told The Sun: "Harry has had meetings with ITV and is desperate to land a place in the jungle.

"He previously had meetings with Strictly and didn’t get it, they didn’t think he was a big enough name, so now he has set his sights on heading Down Under.

"Harry is really keen to land a big show before the next series of the traitors comes on, as he worries once there is another winner out there he stands less chance of landing other telly gigs."

The Sun has contacted ITV for comment.

Harry previously confessed he'd love to do the show. During an appearance on Lorraine earlier this year he was quizzed on whether or not he'd become a campmate.

He said: "That would be top of my list, I'd love to do that.

"Any reality shows, I just love to be able to resonate with people at home who are from working class families like I was, and I'm still at home now with my mum and dad."

In February we told how Harry had turned down a £250,000 offer to enter the Celebrity Big Brother house.

A source said: "He’s made no bones about the fact he fancies doing reality TV.

"And, although he was incredibly flattered by the offer, Celebrity Big Brother didn't feel like the right project for him."

Today it was reported Loose Women favourite and The Sun columnist Jane Moore is in "advanced talks" to take part in I'm a Celebrity in November.
