She may have been slammed for some seriously ropey presenting skills on the Big Breakfast and Celebrity Love Island but Kelly Brook is making a comeback - as a sexy rodent.

The curvaceous star is to play a hamster called Tiffany in a new animation called Hungry Hamsters, about a team of rodents who rescue animals in distress.

"Once Kelly was on board, Tiffany was made more voluptuous and stylish," an insider revealed.

Kelly is better known however for her love of 50s fashion and endless bike-riding with fiance Billy Zane (anyone bored of those photos?!) than her acting skills.

The Rochester lass was particularly criticised for fluffing her lines and being unable to read the autocue in her presenting days, so we're interested to hear how she gets on.

Brooke is over the moon however, and told the Sun she was "thrilled"

"It will be a challenge - and fun." Good luck!
