It was Danny, The Saturdays and Loose Women’s Frankie Bridge and Coronation Street legend Simon battling it out in the final to be crowned champion – following David Ginola finishing in fourth place on Saturday night.
But during the live show, Frankie was confirmed to be in third place leaving Simon and Danny to battle it out until the very end.
As Danny’s loved ones watch on from their Manchester party, both stars gathered in the studio to discuss their time in the castle and waited nervously for the result.

As Ant and Dec finally heard Danny’s reaction to the news, the actor said: “Wow, I can’t believe it. I cant believe it mate. It’s so sick. I am speechless for once.”
He told viewers: “Honestly from the bottom of my heart and my family’s heart, thank you so much. This is the best thing that has ever happened to me bar my son, I can’t believe it I am in shock.”
