He had previously described it as one which had changed his life and admitted it had a "big effect" on him going forward.

Adam finished in the top six during last year's I'm A Celeb which was broadcasted from Wales for a second year owing to the coronavirus pandemic.

There is an All Stars version in the works - and Adam says he'd be keen to join the series.

Speaking about the possibility of heading on the version, he said: "I'd go back and do it in a heartbeat, I'd go back to the castle, dump me in a desert, I'd go back, I loved it."

However, he is convinced that those who did better would be the ones signing up for the upcoming series, rather than him.

Elsewhere, Adam is best known for his role as EastEnders icon Ian, something which he knows he'll be linked to for life.

"I'm not just Ian Beale, there is an actor behind Ian Beale," he told  as he chatted about his iconic soap role, adding: "I've been associated with EastEnders for 38 years.

"In 22 years I'll probably still be associated with EastEnders because that's the nature of the character."

In the past, Adam has spoken multiple times about a possible return to the iconic BBC soap.

He concluded: "It's been a very, very long journey, but don't get me wrong, I don't always think that some of the changes were right.

"Maybe they should've chosen other directions to go but they weren't my decisions."
