Shane Ritchie, who plays Alfie Moon on the Walford-based soap, is the latest celebrity reportedly set to join the I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here line-up this year. 

The soap star has agreed to take part in the ITV show and will enter a two-week isolation period before joining his new campmates, according to The Sun.

Alfie Moon was last seen in Walford in 2019 when he did a runner after he swindled Phil Mitchell out of a large sum of money. 

Other famous faces reportedly set to feature in this year's I'm A Celebrity... include Olympic hero Sir Mo Farah, actress Ruthie Henshall and BBC presenter Victoria Derbyshire

Former Strictly Come Dancing pro AJ Pritchard, presenter Vernon Kay, Coronation Street star Beverley Callard and EastEnders actress Jessica Plummer have also been tipped to take part.

The 2020 edition of I'm A Celebrity..., presented by Ant and Dec, is set to air next month.

It is being filmed in Gwrych Castle in North Wales instead of its usual location in Australia, due to coronavirus restrictions.
