I’m a Celeb’s Chris Moyles reveals cruel prank on Owen Warner that hasn’t made it on air
I’M a Celebrity’s Chris Moyles has revealed a cruel prank he played on Owen Warner that didn’t air.
From the start Hollyoaks star Owen, 23, confessed he didn’t know much about his I’m a Celebrity campmates.

After being dumped from the jungle last night, Chris told how he played another prank on Owen that viewers didn’t get to see.
He said: “I genuinely do think he thinks I’m a dance champion and also I don’t think this came out on the show but for about 10 days he thought I owned the restaurant chain Nobu.

As soon as he appeared on the show Owen had viewers in stitches with his apparent limited knowledge of the stars surrounding him.
He had no idea who Boy George was and even failed to recognise fellow soap star Sue Cleaver.
