He told them: "We had a couple of rows, we had a couple of run ins.
"The worst you can say about Martin is somewhere in Britain there's a panto that's missing a dame.
"He's absolutely fine. He and I had a couple of run-ins, and that's fine too."
He added: "There's a lot that's been made of it, Martin's fine.
"I hope the public got entertainment from it."
Controversial Danny, who was a latecomer to the show, had frequently clashed with fellow late entry during his time on the show.
He also accused him of not following orders from the camp president.
However, Danny then blamed his laid back attitude as the reason he was the first to be given the boot from .
Today he told the ITV show hosts: "If you get turfed out first, you get turfed out first, you cant put a spin on it.
"Nobody likes you and that's it!
"You can look at all the various factors that's it."
Wearing a baseball cap and dark glasses he stretched out his arms as he made his admission, which left the hosts in fits of giggles at the London studios.
He added: "Once again the public failed to be won over by by winning personality and decided they wanted less Baker."
