Danny revealed that he had actually ASKED to participate on the show after becoming a fan back home - and thought this was the best time after beating a six year battle with throat and mouth cancer.
He praised the show and said it was a "lifelong ambition" to take part, explaining: "The only show I've ever wanted to do is this. It's like being asked to do a West End musical.
"This is, in modern TV, as good as it gets. They fly you around the world, put you in a hotel with a beach, then you play gamed in the jungle."
