He's the only American to venture into the South African jungle on this year's edition of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! Australia

And actor Tom Arnold, 57, appears to already be regretting his decision to join the show, having revealed on Tuesday night's episode that he felt left out of the Australia clique that had formed. 

'I do feel a little like an outsider because I am the only non-Aussie. It is 11 to one. You get a bunch of them together and they are like in their clique,' he confessed to the cameras.

'I have no idea what they are saying': Tom Arnold said he can't understand the dialect of his camp-mates on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! 

'I have no idea what they are saying,' he added. 

Footage played of Dane Swan attempting to explain the Down Under dialect to his American comrade. 

Speaking of Dane's broad Australian accent to the cameras, the Sons Of Anarchy star added: 'I don't know if he has like a southern Australian accent or whatever, but it makes no sense.'

It comes after the Roseanne star admitted to The Sydney Morning Herald that he had never actually seen I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! until deciding to join the show. 

'I have no idea who anybody is and I don't mean to sound like a jerk because I don't assume anybody knows who I am, but I was literally watching it like 'What am I watching?''

'There's nothing glamorous about this experience. It is so far out of my comfort zone but I guess I just thought I wanted to do something that was very uncomfortable,' he mused.
