Prince Harry was responsible for making outdoor toilets for his team mates while they were on the 'Walking with the Wounded' 200-mile charity trek to Antarctic.

'Wire' star Dominic West, who accompanied the 29-year-old prince on the expedition, said that he enjoyed the comfort of the prince's "intricate" designs, People Magazine reported.

West explained that the commodes had a flag pole and a loo roll holder that were surrounded by blocks of snow, and Harry must have taken 45 minutes to create each one.

While describing how Harry constructed the toilets, West said that the Prince would dig a hole at the chosen spot along with a platform to squat on.

The 44-year-old actor added that one could tell Harry has the artistic touch because of the designs.

Early in January 2014, another member of the expedition team, 'True Blood' star Alexander Skarsgard, posted a nude picture of himself sitting on one of the prince's toilets.
