Patsy Kensit has now compared her time in Celebrity Big Brother to that of a psychiatric hospital.

The actress was voted out of the famous compound this week and admits she never imagined the whole experience would be as tough as it was.

Likening it to Jack Nicholson movie One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, she insists that her love for meditation allowed her to get through the constant drama surrounding contestants Perez Hilton and Katie Hopkins.

Asked if she'd go into the house again, Patsy said: "I don't think so. I don't think so because I think you can't ... I know girls that have gone on it, women that have gone it and that I've spoken to and like I said Martin Kemp did it and said get prepared for the boredom.

"Martin's into meditation and stuff, he knows I'm at that place in my life so that's a great tool to have, for me, it's not for everybody and it's very boring and I didn't want to ram it down anybody's throat but there are people that have gone on it [Big Brother] and said it's like a holiday camp but it was more like 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest'.

"All of us are different and may they get on with it now and I was just so happy to be up those stairs."

Confessing that whilst she did sometimes feel sorry for Perez when others began to ignore him, she added that there were times when she couldn't bring herself to talk to him either.

"I left school many years ago and it felt very much like being back at school and my heart did go out to Perez towards the end because he was really ostracised and I would dip in and out, for all my we've got to love each other and be peaceful and everything, I felt quite selfish because I couldn't deal with him when he was on high octane but other times he was just adorable."

'Celebrity Big Brother' continues tonight (28.01.15) at 9pm on Channel 5.
