He has since revealed to Metro newspaper that he “hated every minute” of being on the show.
He said: “I didn’t enjoy that show at all. I was struggling with a few things in my life at that time and it was possibly the worst thing I could have done.

“I hated every minute of it and, yeah, my chat-up lines were kind of [bleep].”

Where is Ramona Marquez from the cast of Outnumbered now?
Ramona Marquez played the youngest – and cutest by far – member of the Brockman family.
She first portrayed inquisitive Karen when she was just five years of age.
Now 21, Ramona is studying at Manchester University and occasionally pops up in the acting world.
She recently played Carla in the short filme Wish You Were Gone, and Charlotte in the 2020 film 7 Hours on Earth.

Her dad Martin Marquez is also an actor and TV viewers will know him from his roles in Hotel Babylon, EastEnders and Doc Martin.
Why did Outnumbered end?
The BBC axed Outnumbered after its fifth series in 2016.
They said they didn’t want to produce a 6th series in a bid to avoid making more “just for the sake of it”.
The hugely popular BBC1 sitcom won tons of awards.
These included Best Comedy at the National Television Awards, and a Royal Television Society award.
It was widely praised for its young stars’ use of improvisation to create a convincing version of British family life.
Tyger Drew-Honey, who played Jake, said at the time: “This series is the last series.
“Never say never, but the directors and writers have said that they don’t want to do another.
“Some shows do go on too long and some of them are just making more series for the sake of it.”
The comedy did return for a one-off Christmas special in 2016, though.
Outnumbered is available to watch on Amazon Prime Video.
