Jordan Banjo has revealed life in the I’m A Celeb camp is worse than viewers think and shared a string of jungle secrets exclusively with MailOnline.

The Diversity star, 31, who appeared in the 2016 series and last year’s all stars version, recalled numerous moments he’d sooner forget, including when Carol Vorderman was forced to listen to him poo.

Jordan said viewers would be surprised with just how small the camp is, leaving the celebs with almost no privacy.

Speaking on behalf of SKY’s new voice command feature said: ‘It’s awkward, when you’re busting for the loo and Carol Vorderman is three foot away brushing her teeth, it’s always going to be awkward, but you’ve just got to embrace it’.

‘You’ve got the dunny, and literally theres a cloth in front of you and the other side of that cloth, a couple of feet is where everyone is brushing their teeth, it’s not ideal’.

Jordan explained that there was little to no privacy for the celebs and said viewers would be surprised by just how small the camp is (pictured on the show in 2016)

Jordan also remembered just how ‘shockingly’ everyone stunk as a result of the Bushtucker Trials and poor washing facilities, saying their only saving grace was the campfire, which at times masked the stench.

‘I’ve never been so relieved to stink of a campfire in all of my life, some of those trials you go to, I can’t tell you how bad they are, even before filming you are heaving before you start the challenge’.

While fans may assume hunger is the worst part of jungle life, Jordan revealed it was actually boredom: ‘You’re just sitting there and if you’re not doing trials, you see like 45 minutes of a show, half of which is Ant and Dec chatting and the trial.

‘So if you’re not doing a trial for that day, if you are not doing chores, you will sit in that space that entire time. it’s so boring’.

Before adding: ‘You almost want to do trials to get out of camp, which is the weirdest thing, please lock me in a tank with snakes to ease the boredom’.

Jordan and brother Ashley are working with Sky, who recently revealed the most meme’d, quoted, and repeated phrases from an amazing year of TV, including Tony Bellew’s declaration of ‘I’m The Daddy’ from his on I’m A Celeb.

The broadcaster is celebrating these unforgettable lines by adding a selection into Sky TV’s voice control glossary, making it easier than ever to dive into beloved shows and relive iconic scenes.

To try out the new commands, simply say Be honest, Dearest Gentle Reader or Give over! into your Sky Glass or Sky Stream remote to bring up the shows. New voice commands also include classic TV lines that remain iconic and part of our everyday language, including Here’s one I made earlier (Blue Peter), I’ve got a text (Love Island), and Winter is Coming (Game of Thrones).

Jordan who finished in ninth place, behind Carol in 2016, previously admitted his first stint in the jungle was like seeing a ‘different person’.

Following his exit he said: ‘Looking back at – it being out of it for so long now – I’m like mate I don’t even know how I did it!

‘That’s a different person!’.

Discussing the trials, he reflected on particularly terrifying task, Tomb Of Torment, where he was plunged in darkness whilst 120,000 critters climbed over him, Gogglebox star Scarlett Moffatt, ex-Strictly professional Ola Jordan, and Olympic gold medal winner Sam Quek.

However, it wasn’t the critters that proved to be the most troublesome, as he admitted: ‘I’ve got scars on my neck from when the rats scratched me!’

Despite doing so well in the tasks, he hasn’t inspired fellow Diversity star Perri to take part, as the dancer quipped: ‘I’ll stay well away!’

Jordan was the fourth celebrity to be eliminated on I’m A Celebrity, and immediately after leaving the jungle, he described the experience as ‘overwhelming’.

Chatting to Ant and Dec in his exit interview, he explained: ‘The whole experience has been so overwhelming. To walk up that bridge is so surreal!

‘Saying bye, I can’t believe it… they look so depressed without me.’
