<\/p>\nI\u2019m A Celebrity\u2026 Get Me Out of Here! finally returns this weekend, with 12 more famous faces about to endure a hellish three weeks sleeping in the Australian jungle from Sunday, November 16.<\/p>\n
Kelly Brook, Jack Osbourne, Lisa Riley and Martin Kemp are among the biggest names expected to give up their lives of luxury and all their home comforts, and live by an utterly bizarre rulebook.<\/p>\n
Obviously, we know they don\u2019t get contact from home, can\u2019t communicate with the outside world and can\u2019t sneak in any contraband \u2013 we\u2019re looking at you and your illegal teabags, Dean McCullough.<\/p>\n
What to Read Next<\/p>\n
But did you know campmates can only pack three pairs of underwear and are never allowed to know the time?<\/p>\n
If the new line-up didn\u2019t know the rules before, they probably do now \u2013 and if this list of completely bonkers regulations is anything to go by, they might already be regretting signing on the dotted line.<\/p>\n

1. Red socks must be worn at all times<\/p>\n
The red trousers are obviously a uniform, but socks? Those garish red numbers aren\u2019t just an ill-judged fashion accessory \u2013 they\u2019re actually an essential piece of jungle gear for a particularly gnarly reason.<\/p>\n
The show\u2019s former on-site medic, Bob McCarron, previously revealed that campmates are more than likely to be bitten by bugs and leeches, so the red socks disguise the inevitable bleeding that could put some viewers off watching. Grim!<\/p>\n
2. Speaking of socks\u2026 you can only pack one pair and three pairs of underwear<\/p>\n
When Marvin Humes was in the jungle back in 2023, his wife Rochelle Humes shared another bizarre bombshell during an episode of This Morning. <\/p>\n
She revealed Marvin was only allowed to pack one pair of socks and three pairs of underwear, with the celebs responsible for cleaning them as much as possible.<\/p>\n
Although, Marvin should consider himself lucky \u2013 in the first series they had just one pair of pants for their entire stay.<\/p>\n

3. What if the campmates are smokers?<\/p>\n
Campmates\u2019 underwear might be severely limited, but surprisingly they do have a generous supply of cigarettes and vapes, should they be that way inclined.<\/p>\n
Smokers are allowed to smoke as much as they wish, but vapers must bring a prescription from a doctor with them to Australia if they want that strawberry-kiwi blast Down Under. Unlike in the UK, where vapes are readily available in most newsagents and supermarkets, Aussies can only buy them from pharmacies.<\/p>\n
All smoking and vaping must now be done off-camera, despite former campmates once being encouraged to smoke by the fire and put their cigs out in the flames.<\/p>\n
4. No make-up allowed<\/p>\n
Not that many of them need it \u2013 Myleene Klass still looked fresher than most of us every morning without make-up. But all cosmetics, including skincare, are banned in the jungle because they\u2019re not classed as essential items.<\/p>\n
Former beauty pageant queen Amy Willerton managed to sneak a concealer into camp in 2013 but felt the wrath of producers when they threatened to cut meals to camp \u2013 which didn\u2019t go down well with her fellow castmates.<\/p>\n

5. Deodorant is an exception<\/p>\n
Campmates can look dishevelled, but ITV wouldn\u2019t want them to start smelling. <\/p>\n
Deodorant was banned in the first season of I\u2019m A Celeb, but apparently some contestants who we shall not name for reasons of decorum smelled so bad the crew insisted deodorant be allowed from then on. We’re not uggesting Hugo Taylor (above) was one of them \u2013 he is fragrant as all hell \u2013 we just thought it would be funny to imply that he’s just smelled someone else.<\/p>\n
6. Skinny jabs get the green light<\/p>\n
The stars have always been able to take prescription medication with them into the jungle for obvious reasons, but a new rule also permits the use of weight-loss jabs such as Ozempic. (Presumably as long as it’s been prescribed by a GP, as per UK law.)<\/p>\n
Many celebrities shed an alarming amount of body weight in the jungle anyway, but ITV has spoken \u2013 skinny jabs are officially allowed.<\/p>\n
7. The cast can never know the time<\/p>\n
This rule is one of the strangest \u2013 and it isn\u2019t unique to I\u2019m A Celebrity. The cast of The Celebrity Traitors also kicked off over this very same rule, and producers eventually caved.<\/p>\n
But in the jungle, it\u2019s taken seriously. <\/p>\n
When cast members are summoned for a Bushtucker Trial, Ant, Dec and the entire crew on-site have their watches covered so the suffering stars can\u2019t even catch a glimpse of the time.<\/p>\n

8. The grim reason women are encouraged to shower more than men<\/p>\n
Obviously, every campmate is advised to shower daily, even if it\u2019s just to pass the time. But former on-site medic Bob also explained that the shower isn\u2019t just to spare your campmates from the smell.<\/p>\n
In an episode of Extra Camp, he said: \u201cMost people think of fungus as mushrooms, but we have problems with the cast every year – especially women growing fungus on certain body parts.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve been instructing them to use the shower and personal hygiene a little bit more often.\u201d<\/p>\n
9. There\u2019s a reason Gemma Collins lasted three days<\/p>\n
No matter who you are, every celebrity is contracted to last at least three days in the jungle. Few stars have actually packed their bags and left of their own accord (Malcolm McClaren memorably shied at the first hurdle before even leaving the hotel) but they do have an incentive to stay even if they suddenly realise they\u2019ve bitten off more than they can chew.<\/p>\n
If they want their fee \u2013 which can reach up to \u00a31.5 million if you\u2019re Coleen Rooney \u2013 then they\u2019ve got to give the public what they want for at least three days. And if you\u2019re the most famous WAG in the world that\u2019s not a Spice Girl, that\u2019s reportedly a cool \u00a3500,000 a day.<\/p>\n
I’m A Celebrity Get Me out of Here returns on ITV and ITVX on Sunday 16 Nov.<\/p>\n
