Rylan Clark has spoken up about the time he got into a fight with a deer while on a Comic Relief trek.
The 34-year-old It Takes Two host has climbed the Cairngorm mountain in the Scottish Highlands to raise money for Red Nose Day.
The Eurovision presenter was joined by Emma Willis and Oti Mabuse from Dancing on Ice as they ascended the snow-capped peak at 1245m above sea level.
But, the journey had its difficulties, with Rylan revealing on Friday’s The One Show that he had an unwanted brush with a deer.
After recounting some of the difficulties he faced on the trek, Rylan added: ‘And then I got attacked by a deer on the second night but that’s another story.
‘But I had a hoof just come through…and I was like, “Oh no, I don’t need that.”‘
Alex Jones, who was co-hosting the popular show with Jermaine Jenas, observed, “At least it was for a good cause,” to which Rylan agreed.
Rylan previously stated that he sustained a ‘bruised face and collarbones’ during the arduous first night of the climb.
He said: ‘My body is shot, I’ve managed to somehow bruise my face (and) my collarbones from the rucksack so today carrying that (will) be quite difficult.’
Last month, the trio reached the peak after three days of hiking and rough camping, and Rylan described the experience as “surreal.”
‘I anticipated it would be physically difficult, but it’s been so much more,’ he continued.
‘I’ve been on a real journey over the last few days, but standing on the summit in brutally cold winds, I had a massive smile on my face. Thinking about where the money is going makes it feel totally worth it.
‘For anyone thinking of sponsoring us, it would be hugely appreciated. Even if it’s a £1, it can make such a difference. Massive thank you for all your support.’
The One Show airs weekdays on BBC One from 7.00pm.
