Danny Dyer has revealed that while shooting Scared of the Dark, he could actually ‘taste’ Paul Gascoigne’s flatulence.
The 45-year-old former EastEnders star is fronting a wild new reality TV series in which celebrities such as Gazza, Chloe Burrows, and Scarlet Moffat will all live together in a pitch-black enclosed area for eight days.
If that wasn’t enough, the actors had to put up with the football legend’s ‘pumps’ throughout shooting.
‘He’s got a rotten a**e, Paul,’ said Danny.
‘They all began to get immune to it, but I could f*****g taste it.
‘It did smell in there, I’m not going to lie. Because it’s an enclosed space … you know what I mean?’
Speaking to The Sun, Danny confirmed Gazza was the ultimate prankster on set – as you’d expect.
‘I think he put a sandwich in someone’s bed – a nice little sandwich,’ he recalled.
‘They’re rolling around at night with a salmon or whatever the f**k it was.’
Danny recently revealed everything about his strange new reality show, labelling it one of the most “bizarre” series he’s ever shot.
‘And I have done a lot of mad things,’ he said.
‘Throw in a bunch of celebs and make them do things with the lights off – it’s proper good telly.
‘You’re gonna laugh, you’re gonna laugh some more and I promise you’re gonna love it.’
Are You Scared Of The Dark launches on Channel 4 next month.
