Speaking about going into the jungle, he said: “I’ve never been anywhere near a rainforest or a jungle. As excited as I am, I think I need a map. My biggest worry is the diet!
“I’ve tried no tot think about the trials. I’m brave indoors!”

At the time he told The Independent: “Some people would say that I should continue playing it safe in smaller venues but I don’t see why I should keep taking baby-steps when I am confident I can take giant leaps.
