“If they lose, they’ll have to pit their wits against Bear, who will be hunting them down.
“It’s a really exciting concept and Bear is totally on board.
“Now they have Holly in their sights to host it.
“She is very glamorous and an accomplished host.
“It would be her first major TV role since she left ITV.”
Holly will next be on TV hosting Dancing On Ice with her pal Stephen Mulhern, starting on Sunday.

Holly is gearing up to make her comeback and is weighing up a number of deals.
The source added: “Holly is open to offers.
“She won’t be rushing into anything and will be carefully cherry-picking her next projects."
