“There were some things I definitely had to train for.

“Freediving under ice is really dangerous, you don’t do it alone. I am a qualified freediver.

“The first one I ever did out of a pool was actually under ice, which is about a metre thick, in the dark.”

Presenter Alex asked: “So if you need to pop up you can’t”

Louise continued: “There’s no popping up.”

Co-host Roman added: ‘It’s freaking me out a bit”.

Louise later halted their chat to issue an apology to viewers.

“I’m sorry if i’m making you feel nervous at home. It should come with a warning,” the former I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! contestant said.

She continued: “You get squashed up to the ice and you rally on your own breath to get you the 15 metres to the end.”
