star has vowed to get a tattoo if he wins to mark the moment.
The 38-year-old is with bookmakers including Paddy Power and Betfair. Told he was 5/2 to be crowned king, he sounded surprised and said: "What does that mean? Five to two? Is that strong? Come on the Jonesy! Now I know that I will try my best."
He added: "I think just having the approval of the British public and people that... oh, you actually do like me or whatever, it's kind of nice to know that, and I think that would be just the cherry on top.
"And if I won it, I'd definitely, 100 per cent get a brand new tattoo of the crown and the stick somewhere on my body to represent it. Absolutely would."
Danny admitted the hardest thing about doing the show was leaving his wife Georgia behind and their son Cooper. But he is already excited to see them waiting for him when he comes out the other side.
He said: "As I was leaving, I was like, 'Daddy's going away for a few weeks'. But then when it got announced, I'm sure he would find out now, but I said to him, 'You're gonna come on an adventure with Mummy and be a good boy'. I've never been away for this long.
"We normally have a two-week thing on it where if it's any more than two weeks, you've got to come and say hi. I mean, FaceTime does obviously help, but that's taken, my whole communication has been taken away.

"And it's not just while you're in the jungle, it's in this lockdown bit that I'm in now for a week as well. So in its entirety, it will be, you know, just over a month.
"It is hard, and you've got time with yourself, and I'm a big thinker - a big over-thinker - so it's a real challenge. But I wear my emotions on my sleeve, and I'm definitely, 100 per cent will be so overexcited and emotional when I see the people that I love the most walking towards me.
"I think that would be a special moment, and I'm not scared to show my emotions either." Danny also has some kind of a dress rehearsal for the scary bush tucker trials ahead too. He revealed: "I've been bitten by a snake before, and it wasn't fun. So maybe I'll be a bit more fearful of snakes these days.
"But I'm just gonna do my best and I don't know, maybe I'll have some switch that goes on, like survival mode, and I've got to do it. But maybe I won't. Maybe I'll be an absolute wimp. We'll see."
