Radio X producer James Robinson is looking after Chris's social media accounts while he's on the show and posted on Twitter: "Chris has been in isolation for 7 days now with no contact with anyone until he enters the jungle. But he’s been given a camera to send back this message - the first we’ve heard or seen from him in a week!"
Standing on a terrace underneath bright blue skies, Chris said in a video: "Please watch the show, please vote, just don't let me be out first. The embarrassment of having to go to the five star hotel and as far as trials go... medical grounds... I've got flat feet so I can't do anything.
"Anyway please support me in there thank you. See you on the other side."
Chris has also revealed his worst fear in a secret message after flying out to Australia.

Capturing the “very emotional” moment he shared that he was in Oz, he told his team: “I am genuinely, genuinely petrified.”
When asked by Dominic Byrne, Pippa Taylor and James Robinson what exactly he was scared of, the radio presenter candidly admitted his fear of heights.
“Your entry in from past shows is either jump out of a helicopter or do the plank on the high building which wobbles in the wind, and that absolutely petrifies me.
“I am petrified. Petrified! […] I’m terrified and I’m very emotional by your reaction because now it feels real.”
