He said: “I knew nothing about him.

Viewers were left in stitches when Jordan, 30, hopped into the bathtub with Shane, 56.
Shane revealed: “We had a running gag, ‘Who’s gonna pump me in the shower?’
“We were just giggling. We were tweaking each other’s nipples.”
Greg can't wait
JORDAN North’s BBC Radio 1 colleague Greg James is delighted the UK has fallen in love with the DJ and looks forward to his return.
The Breakfast Show host, 34, said the station’s listeners and hosts had thrown their weight behind him since he entered the ITV show.
Greg told The Sun: “He’s delivered the Jordan magic we know he would.
"We’re not in the least bit surprised that the country has fallen in love with him.
“The listeners know what a funny sweet bloke he is. As well as a complete calamity.
"We can’t wait to have him back in his other happy place, the Radio 1 studio, next week.”
But Greg added: “I won’t hug him because he’ll stink and Covid but I’ll give him the biggest elbow bump he’s ever had.”
