The 55-year-old - a former Leader of the House of Commons and a GB News presenter - is putting himself up for re-election as an MP in the seat of North East Somerset, which he has held since 2010. According to The Sun , the show would follow him and his family - including his six children - in the coming weeks as he campaigns in his local area. A source told the newspaper: "Jacob is a divisive, fascinating character who lives an old-fashioned life and TV producers think a fly-on-the-wall series could be a hit.
"He is very well spoken, staunchly religious, speaks fluent Latin and not afraid to air his views, which makes for a unique watch. "His opinions aren't for everyone but he will certainly get people talking." Rees-Mogg confirmed: "Yes, I have been approached.
It is very flattering. I am thinking about it. "I may be talking to them in reasonably short order.
" Candidates announced so far for the constituency - now renamed North East Somerset and Hanham - include Rees-Mogg (Conservative), Dan Norris (Labour), Dine Romero (Liberal Democrats), Paul MacDonnell (Reform UK), Edmund Cannon (Green Party) and Kathleen Haskard (Workers Party GB).
