Dean Gaffney wants to join ‘Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins’.
The ‘EastEnders’ actor – who first spent a decade on the soap until 2003 before rejoining in 2017 – admitted he turned down an offer to appear on ‘Celebrity MasterChef’ because of his lack of culinary skills, but he revealed he would love to take on a more physical challenge.
He told The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre TV column: "They did ask me to do ‘Celebrity MasterChef’ but I can’t cook.
"So they said to my agent, ‘We’ll come back in a year and see if he has done any cooking lessons.’
"I’d love to do the ‘Celeb SAS’ reality show – I do like to challenge myself. But you’d never see me on ‘Celebrity Coach Trip’. It’s just not for me. It’s just a bit tacky."
It’s been almost 13 years since Dean’s last reality TV appearance when he went to the jungle for ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’
And last year, the 41-year-old soap star hit out at ITV2 dating show ‘Love Island’ and revealed he has banned his twin daughters Chloe and Charlotte, 21, from even auditioning.
He ranted: "I think anyone that goes on a reality show to open their legs and have sex on telly hasn’t been brought up well in my opinion. It’s not right and I certainly don’t want to have my daughters on that.
"They don’t want to do ‘Love Island’. They have their own careers. They’ve both done well and I am proud of them. They have been brought up well."
