Hotel owner Mark Fuller has claimed that Nick Knowles DID jam with Biffy Clyro on the roof of his hotel.
The DIY SOS host is currently taking part in I’m A Celebrity, and was filmed telling his campmates about the time he “jammed” at the top of the Karma Sanctum Soho alongside the Biffy Clyro.
However, the Scottish band’s drummer Ben Johnston laughed off Nick’s claims on Greg James’ Radio 1 Breakfast Show by saying, “I think he was being a bit fast and loose with the truth there.”

But, the hotel’s owner has since told The Sun Online: “They got the guitar out and jammed on the roof ’til the early hours. Nick is a really great friend of mine, and always up for a party.”
“No idea why Biffy Clyro are being so coy about it – they were up all night jamming with Nick. Everyone was buying champagne and getting tipsy. It was such a good night!”
The news comes after Nick’s new single, Make You Feel My Love, topped the iTunes’ chart this week – beating the likes of Cheryl, Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga and P!nk.

Before Ben dismissed Nick’s comment on the radio, Biffy Clyro seemed to confirm the rumours on social media.
After Holly Willoughby and Declan Donnelly suggested the nation get ‘#BiffyClyroNotEmbarrassedTheyJammedWithNickKnowles’ trending on Twitter, the band got involved by tweeting the hashtag.
