EXCLUSIVE Coronation Street star hints he's ALREADY signed up for Celebrity Big Brother after Jack P Shepherd was crowned series champion
Coronation Street star Ben Price has hinted he may be the next soap name to enter the Celebrity Big Brother house, after co-star Jack P Shepherd was crowned series champion.
The actor, 53, who plays Nick Tilsey on the ITV soap, has seen his close pals and co-stars Jack and Colson Smith previously take part in the famous show.
Speaking to MailOnline on the red carpet at Saturday's Soap Awards alongside Colson and Jack, Ben quipped that it's 'already signed off' that he'll be joining CBB next year.
Jack was crowned series champion after beating runner-up Danny Beard in April's final, with JoJo Siwa finishing in third place.
Speaking about returning to work after the win, Jack told MailOnline: 'When you come back, everyone's exactly the same. Everyone said it was great. It was a surprise, the aim wasn't to win.'

The actor was nominated by his fellow celebrity housemates quite a few times, which he insisted was because he told them he didn't care if he was up for eviction.
He explained: 'I was only one that wasn't bothered if I was nominated. I said to them, it's fine.'
The trio, who are continuing to host their On The Sofa podcast, also reflected on Colson's heartbreaking exit from the soap, after his character Craig Tinker was tragically killed off last month.
Colson said: 'It was weird, there's been quite a lot of like milestones to get over and weirdly the last day was quite an enjoyable thing because you've worked so hard for it to come to that point and you're kind of saying goodbye to something that's been such a big part of your life.
'But we had a really nice day, I was lucky Jack and Ben were there and my family came into work. I had a really nice last scene, I was in Roy's Rolls with a nice group of people.'

Zara McDermott cuddles up to Louis Tomlinson's sister at Glastonbury as romance gets family seal of approval
ZARA McDermott has been snapped cuddling up to Louis Tomlinson's sister in a new seal of approval of her blossoming relationship with Louis. The 28-year-old has been dating the former One Direction star, 33, since March this year, with the pair looking loved up at Glastonbury Festival across this weekend. 5 5 5 Lottie Tomlinson, Louis's make-up artist sister, is also enjoying the revelry with fiancé Lewis Burton, and shared pictures from day one of the festival on Instagram this morning. Among the pics, Lottie is seen sharing a hug with Louis and Lewis in the Worthy Farm field, while another showed Lottie and Zara sharing a hug in front of one of the Glastonbury stages. Zara posed with a canned water in her hand in a baggy blue top, jean shorts and a baseball cap, wrapping one of her arms around Lottie's back. Lottie did the same to cuddle into Zara, posing in a white pencil-strapped top and a pair of jeans. Followers quickly shared their love of the photo collection, particularly how well Zara seems to be fitting in with the Tomlinson family. 'YOU AND ZARA ALWAYS GONNA BE THE GIRLS OF THE MOMENT' wrote one. 'YA'LL WE GOT A ZARA AND LOTTIE PIC,' noted a surprised second. A third wrote: 'Lottie and zara is the most Powerful duo EVER 😍, girls you stunning' 'Nice when your siblings and partners get along so well.😍😍' said a fourth. Zara and Louis have shunned the VIP treatment for the event, and have been seen camping out with the rest of the revellers in a small tent. Louis Tomlinson and Zara McDermott look loved up as they are spotted on holiday in Costa Rica "They looked like they were having a ball together and Louis was really affectionate towards Zara and was making sure she had everything she needed. "She was stroking his back and had a massive smile on her face,' a source said. While Louis is used to appearing on stage, it was actually Zara that was making an appearance at this year's festival, joining a panel at the Information Tent on Friday to discuss her documentary filmmaking. Louis was seen proudly looking on from the sidelines as she spoke. The couple have become more public with their relationship in the past few weeks, after getting to know each other while Zara filmed a documentary with Louis's sisters. Splitting with Sam Thompson in January after a five-year relationship, Zara kept her new romance quiet in the early weeks, with Louis also known to keep his private life away from the limelight. However, they have since made their relationship more well-known, enjoying a loved-up holiday to Costa Rica together, and Zara joining Louis in Los Angeles. 5 5

The process has to be enjoyable because life is really short.'
