During his time on the show, he became the second celebrity to be voted out. The BBC Radio 1 DJ frustrated campmates and viewers by giving up during scary challenges to win meals for the camp. Ant's reaction came as a surprise to many. As Dean said, "You do actually get used to the tension. What you don't see on TV is that it's so quiet, it's all taken very, very seriously. There's so many rules that you've got to remember and it's tense." Over the week, he got used to it, but the sand trial was a different story. He admitted that he would do it again, believing that with practice, one gets used to the challenges. When Ant was telling him off for saying "I'm a celebrity get me out of here", it felt like a real scolding. He felt that Ant meant it and wanted to win him back around, which he eventually did by bringing 10 stars home for the camp.
