Best known for his stint on the Radio 1 breakfast show and inadvertently making Relax by Frankie Goes To Hollywood a massive hit when he banned the single from his show Mike's up for the jungle challenge but his biggest problem is getting there.

'I've a real fear of flying. I haven't flown for years and I hate it. After flying, seeing snakes and insects will be okay. It's going to be a case of I'm a celebrity get me in here!

Mike believes one of the biggest problems facing the celebs could be an unexpected one.'This isn't the Krypton Factor. I think it's more a mental thing than a physical thing.

Mike admits that he's no great shakes at cooking or starting fires but to compensate Mike says he's up for the Bushtucker trials.

'It's a spur of the moment thing, you've got to know your fellow people and you don't want to let them down. It's just the way you deal with it; you do see fear in people's eyes, have I got to eat that? That's not going to be easy.
