Ant McPartlin has said he would be 'very happy' for I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! to return to Wales.
The latest series of the hit ITV show was filmed in the UK for the first time due to coronavirus.
The pandemic forced producers to scrap plans that would see contestants and crew fly abroad to its usual base in the Australian jungle.
Instead, the programme was set in a historic castle in North Wales, where 'coronavirus-secure' measures were put in place such as testing and quarantining.
Presenter Ant told Digital Spy that although they would be happy to stay in the UK, he would miss the Australian weather.
“If during coronavirus we have to stay put and do it in Wales again, I’d be very happy,” said Ant, who hosts I'm A Celeb alongside Declan Donnelly.
The 45-year-old said they were “welcomed” in Wales, adding: “There were cardboard cutouts of me and Dec in the butcher’s, and the local school did a tribute.
“We’d happily go back there. We’d miss the sunshine, mind.”
Ant added: “The people in Wales were lovely. They made us feel very welcome.
“I had a lovely time. I will miss the sunshine, but I will not miss the jetlag of coming back from Australia.
“I’d love to go back to Oz. But if we had to go back to Wales, I wouldn’t be disappointed.”
Podcast host Giovanna Fletcher was crowned winner of the most recent series, which was filmed in Gwrych Castle near Abergele in North Wales.
During the interview, Ant also revealed details of how he proposed to fiancee Anne-Marie Corbett.
“It was a lovely way to end the year,” he said.
“I’m a romantic at heart. You know, there were flowers, and afternoon tea in front of the Christmas tree.”
When asked whether Dec would be the best man at his wedding, he said: “He was very good last time. He has been my best man. I’ve been his best man.
“But I suppose it depends on what kind of wedding we have. There’s been no plans.”
