But a TV insider said: “With Ronnie’s colourful relatives – who can be traced back over 300 years – there was too much to be able to work through in time for this year’s series.

“They’re still determined to see if they can bring together what they need to make a show all about the Wood clan. But if it happens it will have to be next year now.”

Father-of-six Ronnie has previously said his raven hair was “one of the blessings” of his gypsy blood.

He also believes it gave him a love of partying.

Titanic actress Kate Winslet and ex-Towie star Mark Wright are confirmed for the new series this summer.
