Chris Moyles has a message from I'm A Celeb isolation

Toby and the team get a special message from Chris as he readies himself for the new series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

As you've almost certainly heard, Chris Moyles has joined the cast of the new series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

The Radio X DJ is currently in isolation as he waits to go into the Australian jungle before the first episode of the ITV series airs Sunday night (6th November).

He sent the world his thoughts on what he's about to let himself in for... physical challenges, mental hardship, gnawing hunger and the all-important Bush Tucker Trials.

Chris said: "Hello everyone. It's Chris. Yes, I am in Australia. Look, to prove it - blue skies! Definitely not in the UK. Sorry I kept it from you. I didn't keep it from you, I just didn't tell you."

Chris Moyles announces he's entering I'm A Celeb!

"Yes, it is true, I'm going into the jungle. Tiff [his partner] wants to do the en suite, so no choice. Anyway, James [Robinson] will be doing my social media, so it will probably be lots of posts about jam. Hopefully he'll keep you updated."

Chris ended the message by saying: "Please watch the show and please vote, don't let me be out first. The embarrassment of having to go to the five star hotel... and as far as trials go... medical grounds, I can't do anything... I've got flat feet!

"Thank you... see you on the other side!"
