They were also joined by Giovanna Fletcher’s brother, Mario Falcone, who discussed her new camp leader role.
During the show, Ant and Dec revealed the campmates have been struggling with the cold in Gwrych castle in Wales.
‘It’s so cold, they can never get warm’: I’m A Celeb’s Ant and Dec revealed the campmates’ biggest struggle on I’m A Celebrity… The Daily Drop on ITV Hub on Thursday
Asked if Wales feels like home Ant said: ‘It does actually. It’s cold, but we knew that coming here. It’s not a surprise to us.
‘The castle looks amazing, the show’s going really well, the campmates are hilarious.’
Dec added: ‘We’re loving it. The people of Wales have been so welcoming and so excited about having the show here, it has been lovely to be here.
Love: Giovanna Fletcher’s brother, Mario Falcone, praised her during the show as he discussed her new camp leader role (pictured: Giovanna)
‘They’ve made us feel so welcome, it’s been great. It’s amazing, bring your long johns though!’
Speaking of the campmates and what they’d expected of them in advance, Ant said: ‘Mo Farah was the biggest shock he was doing the show.
‘Four times Olympic champion – he hasn’t disappointed. He brings a little bit of sunshine.’
Dec added: ‘His smiley face has been lovely.’
Of her supportive nature Mario said: ‘When I’ve been through things that aren’t particularly nice, she’s been my rock. She’s very calm, collected, she knows the right thing to say to make you feel better’ (pictured together in June 2015)
Ant said: ‘Then you’ve got Jordan – I didn’t know what to expect – from the first moment on the side of the cliff when he spewed up his guts, he’s entertained us every day.’
Ant continued of how they’re doing in camp: ‘We’ve spoken to them down at trials and we said, “Is it cold in there?” and they said it’s that cold that you never, ever get warm.
‘Even at night. It’s in your bones. You know when you’ve been out all day walking and you’re cold and it’s in your bones, it’s like that – day in, day out.’
Dec added: ‘They’ve got a warm shower that they have to pump themselves, and keep the fire going to keep it warm, but they said even when they have a warm shower, you immediately get cold again, you can never quite warm up.
‘So I think that has been the hardest thing for them, just the cold.’
Of who is making them laugh, Ant said: ‘Bev really makes me laugh, her one-liners are very good.’
Speaking of the campmates and what they’d expected of them in advance, Ant said: ‘Mo Farah was the biggest shock he was doing the show. Four times Olympic champion – he hasn’t disappointed. He brings a little bit of sunshine’
Dec added: ‘Bev’s good, Jordan’s been brilliant, we’ve laughed a lot at Jordan, Shane’s kept the camp going and Vernon.
‘Those four have been really kind of at the centre of keeping spirits up.’
Ant continued: ‘Jessica’s faces, by the way, they really make me laugh. It was surprising just how many noises a human body can make [in last night’s trial].’
Dec said: ‘We stopped trying to keep a straight face a long time ago. We just strapped in and enjoyed the ride.’
Giovanna’s brother Mario joined the show by video to discuss her time in camp and new role as leader.
Of seeing her on the show he said: ‘It’s very weird. I’m immensely proud. She’s just been the Giovanna that I know.’
Speaking of her ability to stay calm he said: ‘She raises three boys under six, so I think anything you’re going to throw at her… she’ll just smash anything.’
Of her supportive nature he said: ‘When I’ve been through things that aren’t particularly nice, she’s been my rock. She’s very calm, collected, she knows the right thing to say to make you feel better.’
Bad times: The campmates haven’t been able to get warm and even when they have a shower, they are immediately cold afterwards
Speaking of who she turns to in life and in the castle he said: ‘In life, I’d assume Tom. Tom’s obviously a fantastic dad and husband, I know they’ve got a fantastic relationship.
‘Everyone in there’s so likeable. Every single time someone has a down day, everyone’s there to support. She seems to be very close to Shane, Vernon.’
And of who would be a good deputy for her, he said: ‘AJ. I’d like to see more AJ. You need clean pans. I think there’s more to him. I don’t think we’ve seen enough of him.’
The studio guests discussed Wednesday night’s trial.
Presenter Rick Edwards said: ‘I have not recovered, genuinely. I don’t know if I’m just a sensitive soul but I was gagging with Jessica the whole way through.
Of who is making them laugh, Ant said: ‘Bev really makes me laugh, her one-liners are very good’
‘I honestly thought I was going to throw up, I’ve never seen anything like it.”
Chelcee Grimes said: ‘There were a lot of body parts weren’t there? I was definitely gagging with them.’
Returning guest Eamonn Holmes said: ‘What astounds me is the success rate – the amount of stars they’re bringing back. There’s a lot of things I could do, but that would be a limit.
‘If we were in the camp together I could look you straight in the eyes and say I would feel no obligation to swallow any of that to feed you.
‘I think the one that’s doing best out of this now is Shane. Jess is funny, Shane is funnier. People at home in that perverse way, they want to see him do these trials, that’s people saying we might like him to be King of the Castle.’
