- Meet the 2023 I’m A Celeb campmates
I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! hosts Ant and Dec gave a tongue in cheek tour of the basic camp that the incoming stars will soon be calling home.
The Geordie duo, both 48, joked that the celebrities would be living in a ‘ten bed luxury mansion’ in a tour clip uploaded to their Instagram on Sunday.
It comes as the series will return on Sunday night at 9pm live from Down Under – with stars such as Nigel Farage, Marvin Humes, Jamie Lynn Spears and Sam Thompson taking part.
They began the hilarious video by popping out of the curtains of the dunny as they said: ‘Oh hi, welcome to the Jungle!
‘We’re going to give you an exclusive tour of this ten bed luxury accommodation here in Australia, come with us!’

First they showed the very basic toilet facilities behind the curtain as Ant joked it was for ‘ones and twos but not threes’.
Next they showed off was the main living area with the camp beds as Ant stood next to one of the khaki beds and said: ‘This is just one of ten beds in this open air jungle accommodation.’
Dec then sat down on one and joked: ‘Look at this luxury mattress, not filled with feathers but with leaves! So comfortable!’
Next up Ant showed off the logs the campmates can sit on as he quipped: ‘There’s lots of logs you can rest your legs on’, before Dec ‘tried it out’.
They both then posed on the logs in another silly moment.
Dec then continued as they showcased the hammocks full of mouldy leaves: ‘And if like Ant you’re a bit of a swinger why not jump into one of our hammocks where you can swing to your heart’s content!’
Then Ant showed off the bean and rice supply box as he sarcastically said: ‘If you like green boxed you’ll love this!’
The cheeky pair then moved onto the camp’s iconic telephone box as Ant said: ‘Who needs wifi when you can have an old telephone box!’

Bedroom: Dec then sat down on one and joked: ‘Look at this luxury mattress, not filled with feathers but with leaves! So comfortable!’
They rounded things off with: ‘And that’s it for this exclusive look at this ten bed luxury mansion here in Australia. We’ve got to leave because we’ve got ten people checking in. Let’s get out of here, good luck everybody!’
They penned in the caption of the Instagram video: ‘Welcome to our jungle abode #ImACeleb.’
It comes after it was revealed that Nigel Farage has already been covered in gunge for his first I’m A Celebrity Bushtucker trial.
The ex-UKIP leader, 59, was seen sporting a pair of goggles while being submerged in filthy barrels of mud and muck.
It is his first gruelling trial in the jungle challenge show – which is set to kick off on ITV on Sunday night as the celebrities enter camp for the first time.
Farage joined YouTuber Nella Rose and This Morning presenter Josie Gibson for a desert-based task after he was given immunity from the skydiving challenge.
His past injuries have led to speculation he would be exempt from many of the show’s Bushtucker trials.
Nigel’s pink shirt was splattered with splotches of mud as he and Nella hunted through the dirt.
Revealing his limitations in the jungle beforehand, Mr Farage told The Mail on Sunday: ‘Well, anything involving weight lifting, I’d be out because I’ve obviously had some quite serious physical injuries and neck reconstructions and goodness knows what else.’
Instead of jumping out of the plane like campmates have in previous years, Farage was sent to take part in the desert challenge with Josie and Nella.
Mr Farage underwent a major spinal operation following the accident 13 years ago when his light aircraft, towing a Vote UKIP banner that accidentally wrapped around the tail and rudder during the flight, nosedived to the ground, injuring him and the pilot.

Sleep: Dec then continued as they showcased the hammocks full of mouldy leaves: ‘And if like Ant you’re a bit of a swinger why not jump into one of our hammocks where you can swing to your heart’s content!’
Hanging out in camp: They both then posed on the logs in another silly moment
Tech: The cheeky pair then moved onto the camp’s iconic telephone box as Ant said: ‘Who needs wifi when you can have an old telephone box!’
Jokes: Then Ant showed off the bean and rice supply box as he sarcastically said: ‘If you like green boxed you’ll love this!’
End: They rounded things off with: ‘And that’s it for this exclusive look at this ten bed luxury mansion here in Australia’
He previously said he closed his eyes, not expecting to see anything ever again before he felt a series of hard blows to his body as the aircraft took the full impact and the engine fell apart.
After being taken to hospital, a scan showed he had a punctured lung, two chipped vertebrae, a fractured sternum and several fractured ribs.
This led to the star needing major surgery several years later on back and neck injuries he sustained in the accident.
His car accident occurred in 1985 when he was hit by a Volkswagen Beetle while on a pelican crossing.
