Chris Moyles was one of the first star’s spotted arriving in Australia ahead of the series, with the radio DJ said to have been top of producers’ wishlist for a number of years.
Speaking about the show, Chris told The Sun: ‘I have absolutely no idea what my family and friends would think of me doing a show like I’m A Celebrity.
