Christopher Biggins was announced as the winner of I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here! last night.

The actor beat off competition from supermodel Janice Dickinson and former boyband star Jason "J" Brown in the final episode of the ITV1 reality series.

"It's been a wonderful, wonderful experience and I can't believe that I'm here, that I've done it," Biggins explained in his interview with show hosts Ant & Dec.

"I've made wonderful friends and I've done wonderful things that I never thought I would do. Unbelievable fun, it was just the best. There was a bit of friction but listen, you put 11 people together and there's bound to be friction."

Janice insisted that she was not disappointed to finish in second place and thanked the British public for their support throughout her jungle stint.

"I got this far. I'm grateful to the people of the United Kingdom," she said. "You guys have the best show on television."

Third-placed finalist J revealed: "All I wanted to do was have the whole run of the show and I've done it. I've had an absolute blast of a time. It's surpassed everything I thought it would be. I wanted to get to the last three people just so I could experience the whole show."
