I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! contestant Chris Moyles has joked about being ruled out of Bushtucker Trials on medical grounds.
Ahead of the Radio X presenter's debut this weekend, his Twitter manager uploaded a video of Moyles in self-isolation, where he apologised to fans for not revealing his involvement with the series until now.
"Hello everyone, it's Chris, and yes I am in Australia," he said to the camera, before panning round to showcase the beautiful weather down under.

"To prove it, look, 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, but yes it is true, I'm going into the jungle."
Moyles went on to joke that his partner Tiffany Austin wanted to renovate their ensuite, so he had "no choice" but to be part of this year's I'm a Celebrity and collect the dough.
"Please watch the show, please vote," he urged his followers. "Just don't let me be out first; the embarrassment of having to go to the five-star hotel.
"As far as trials go... uh, medical grounds! I can't... I've got flat feet so I can't do anything. Anyway, please support me in there - thank you. See you on the other side."

Previously explaining why he finally accepted that annual I'm a Celebrity offer from ITV, the star said: "I didn't say no immediately, and I ended up going to a meeting. Now I don't know why I said yes.
"But I am a huge fan of the show and I know what I am letting myself in for! My friends who have done it before have told me I will have a great time."
Moyles is set to join ten other celebrities such as pop culture icon Boy George, rugby player Mike Tindall, Coronation Street's Sue Cleaver and late comer Conservative MP Matt Hancock for this year's cast.
I'm a Celebrity returns Sunday, November 6 at 9pm on ITV and ITV Hub.
