Dean Gaffney Returns To 'EastEnders', But Do You Remember His Hilarious 'I'm A Celebrity' Stint?

#FBF: Remember Dean Gaffney's Hilarious Stint In The Jungle?

Dean Gaffney has announced his return to ‘EastEnders’ as loveable plonker Robbie Jackson, but long-term fans of The Gaffers, as we like to call him, will know that this is not his most prolific TV appearance.

That title goes to his stint in the ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ jungle, where his attempts at the Bushtucker Trials went down in reality TV history.

Dean completed three of the gruesome challenges during his time on the ITV show in 2006, but the Jungle Spa trial - where he received beauty treatments of a very different kind - still remains the most memorable.

The jittery star let out a series of noises that no other human has ever made before (our personal favourite is at the 0.28 mark, FYI), as he faced a plethora of critters and jungle nasties, leaving hosts Ant and Dec in stitches.

So as we ready ourselves for the return of Robbie Jackson, let’s just take a moment to relive Dean’s Bushtucker nightmare in the video above.
