HOLLY Willoughby may get sweet long-awaited revenge on serial prankster Keith Lemon after he was approached for her new survival show.
The comedian, 50, would film Bear Hunt in Costa Rica — one of the world’s three top banana-exporting nations.
It comes six years after Celebrity Juice host Keith coaxed Holly to put the fruit in her mouth on the ITV2 panel show, axed in 2020.
Holly, 43, and co-host Bear Grylls, 49, will start shooting the Netflix production with an all-star cast in May.
A TV source said: “Netflix are splashing the cash and all the celebrities taking part as contestants are bagging at least six figures.
From tongue scraping to saying no, here are 12 health trends to try in 2023
“It won’t be a walk in the park though. The celebs will learn survival skills and take part in challenges, before being hunted down by Bear himself. Holly has the elevated role of host, so she won’t be getting her hands dirty.
“She’ll be perfectly placed to get her own back on her old pal.”
Keith, real name Leigh Francis, worked with Holly on Celebrity Juice from 2008 to 2020.
Her husband Dan Baldwin was producer and encouraged the outrageous host to refer to his wife as “Holly Willoughbooby”.
He also urged him to involve her in the show’s naughtiest material, which included Holly and Fearne Cotton having to pass an olive from mouth to mouth.
Leigh said: “When I do Juice there’s often someone in my ear going, ‘Say this’. Normally it’s Holly’s husband saying, ‘Say this bad thing to my wife’, and I’m like, ‘No way! I’m not saying that!’”
Bear Hunt will air on Netflix next year.
