A source told The Sun: “Danny Dyer is a reality TV booker’s dream signing but for years has turned down every offer. He’s a huge character who effortlessly creates telly magic without even trying, so Traitors bosses have been pursuing Danny hard. They’re doing everything they can to get the deal over the line.”


Other people rumoured to take part in the show, which will be screened at some point next year, include Stephen Fry, Tom Daley, Clare Balding, Paloma Faith and Alan Carr.
The third series of the non-celebrity version starts on New Year’s Day.
A spokesperson for the BBC said: “The Traitors is a game that includes lies and deception, thus it would be foolhardy for any Faithful to speculate before the game has begun.”
