Bolton's Danny Jones told how he prepared for I'm a Celebrity, including feel hungry.
Danny who rose to fame in McFly enters the camp this evening along with fellow famous faces, including Coronation Street star Alan Halsall from Walkden.
The 38-year-old from Bromley Cross, said before he entered the camp: "I’ve stopped drinking caffeine. I’ve lowered my calories a little bit. It’s going alright. I felt the hunger for a few days.
“It’s not going to be anything like the rice and beans!”
Asked which Trials he’s dreading, Danny laughs: “All of them… it’s genuinely all of them.”
But he can also already envisage the bits he’s going to enjoy the most.

"The sun has set, the fire’s on, you’ve eaten and you’ve got that little high from your food. I’m looking forward to those evenings.”
Danny says he hopes he’s easy to live with: “I’m quite patient. I’m quite placid. I’m quite chilled. I like it calm, I like putting music on, I like it smelling nice. I like a bath in the evening…”
Talking of bathing in the jungle, will he be heading to the famous jungle shower? “100 per cent,” Danny enthuses.
“A cool shower in the evening!”
The singer isn’t keen on the idea of being away from his guitar for so long, wistfully admitting: “I’d love to have my guitar… to be without it is going to be a killer.”
Danny joked that signing up has earned him some unexpected compliments from friends and family.
He said: “I’ve had a couple of voice notes from people saying, ‘I can’t wait for people to fall in love with you’ or ‘I can’t wait for people to see that you’re genuine’ or whatever. It’s really nice to hear that. I’ve never heard that. It takes me going to the jungle for my friends to tell me how much they like me!”
Alan said: "“I am looking forward to meeting different people in camp. This is something I have always shied away from in the past. You are never going to get me on the ice, dancing isn’t my thing and this will be much harder than filming a scene in Corrie.
"There I am pretending to be someone else and delivering lines that are written for me. This is a very different thing. I will miss work too. It’s such a huge part of my life and I have been there for such a long time. I work with my best friends.”
