She is believed to be ‘keen’ to make an appearance on the show as Beeb bosses are convinced she will be ‘comedy gold’, according to the Sun.
A source told the publication: ‘The Beeb thinks she could be comedy gold, just like Alan Carr.
‘Alison is naturally very funny and they think she could end up being hugely successful.
‘The pot of talent wanting to take part is overflowing, so they have a lot to weigh up.’

It is believed that contracts will not be signed until later in the year, but they are ‘keen’ for her to sign.
Other a-listers such as Danny Dyer and Gavin & Stacey star Ruth Jones are also said to be on the list of potential celebrities signing up for the show.
Hosted by Claudia Winkleman, the ultimate game of deception has been captivating audiences since its 2022 debut.
Players taking part must adhere to a specific set of rules during their time in the castle.
Although some relate to what happens off-camera, others are directly connected to what happens in the game.
If any of these are broken, the cast members could face huge consequences as a result.
The contracts the stars sign span their time in the castle and the months before the transmission of the series, once filming has wrapped, ensuring no spoilers derail the show.
Some rules include no mobile phones, no access to the time and not being informed of their sleeping arrangements.
Players may spend all day filming in Ardross Castle, located in the Scottish Highlands – but they don’t spend the night there.
Traitors are also not allowed to reveal fellow Traitors by exposing their own identity and the contestants must not reveal show secrets prior to airing – having signed NDAs.

The first Celebrity Traitors saw Alan Carr come out victorious as he went undetected throughout the game and snatched the £87,500 prize
The first Celebrity Traitors saw Alan Carr come out victorious as he went undetected throughout the game.
An average audience of 11.1 million tuned in for the grand finale that saw Traitor Alan, 49, hoodwink Nick Mohammed and David Olusoga into believing he was a Faithful.
With a peak of 12 million viewers, it was the BBC‘s biggest overnight audience since Gavin & Stacey’s Christmas special last year.
Viewers watched in awe and bewilderment as Alan snatched the £87,500 prize, despite his previous claims he was as bad a Traitor as series three star Linda Rands.
Alan’s surprise win came as a result of Nick, 45, and David, 55, turning on fellow Faithful Joe Marler at the last minute in a shock twist that left viewers reeling.
Despite Joe, 35, correctly guessing that Alan and Cat Burns, 25, were the remaining Traitors, he failed to convince the others and found himself being banished at the last minute.
