SAS : Who Dares Wins are said to have signed up Jake Quickenden and James Cracknell for the new series.
The pair are seemingly well suited to the task as Jake, 32, took part in I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! back in 2014 and James, 48, took part in Celebrity Island with Bear Grylls in 2018.
Sources told The Sun Online that Channel 4 hopes to raise the bar with stronger stars next series.
The insider told the publication: “James and Jake are super-fit and should do well given their past pursuits in challenging TV shows. Bosses are keen to have people who won’t collapse at the first hurdle.”

Double Olympian, James is without a doubt a great candidate to take part in the popular programme.
The former rower, who won gold at the 2000 and 2004 Olympic games has turned his hand to media work since retiring.
In 2006 he rowed the Atlantic in 49 days, 19 hours and 8 minutes, alongside Ben Fogle.
