"For a long time I've been doing serious stuff - thirty years in the police and running for mayor. It's all bad news that they want me to comment on so I thought why not come and do something trivial," he told presenters Ant and Dec. | |
Paddick added that life in the jungle was a combination of hunger and boredom and had lost a stone in two weeks. | |
"It gets pretty tedious, if you don't get a trial or you don't get a celebrity chest to do you're just sitting around doing the same thing," he said. | |
"Even the conversations were repeating themselves after a while because you just run out of things to say." | |
His departure leaves six celebrities fighting it out in the jungle. | His departure leaves six celebrities fighting it out in the jungle. |
Asked who he thought should win, Paddick said: "Simon [Webbe]. No doubt, no hesitation. He is such a talented guy, such a good guy and such a role model." | |
The winner, voted for by the public, will be revealed during a live show on Friday night. |
