00:00And you were voted for seven trials, seven trials.
00:05That is more than Matt Hancock.
00:10Oh, God.
00:11Don't make that comparison.
00:14Tell us about that experience, because it's one of the things
00:18that really came over.
00:19I think your very first trial was
00:21when you were in the sarcophagus.
00:24You were absolutely determined to do it.
00:26Then all of a sudden, it begins to fill up with sand.
00:29It's the first time you screamed,
00:31I'm a celebrity, get me out of here.
00:32Did you gradually learn to love the trials,
00:36or did your heart sink every time?
00:39Because it didn't look like it did.
00:42Yeah, I wouldn't say love, but you do actually
00:45get used to the tension.
00:46What you don't see on telly is that it's very quiet.
00:50It's all taken very, very seriously.
00:52There's so many rules that you've got to remember,
00:56and it's tense.
00:58I was the first one to get out and repeat these trials.
01:02Over the week, I actually got used to it.
01:05Now, the sand one, I could not have predicted
01:09that that was going to happen.
01:10All I was told was to stand in the box
01:12with my hands on the perspex,
01:14and I might be joined by things in the tomb.
01:17So yeah, I wasn't expecting it at all.
01:20But I would actually do it again.
01:21I would give it a go.
01:22I think, like anything, you just keep doing it,
01:25you get used to it.
01:26But I wouldn't say I love the trial.
01:28Did you go into every trial determined
01:32that you weren't going to shout,
01:33I'm a celebrity, get me out of here?
01:38Yeah, I mean, when Ant was telling me off
01:41for saying, I'm a celebrity, get me out of here,
01:43it felt like a proper telling off.
01:45I felt like he meant it.
01:47So I did what I was told,
01:49and I wanted to win him back around,
01:51which I think I did in the end.
