Former I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! winner , Sam Thompson, has revealed exactly what the jungle dunny was really like - and it's not for the faint-hearted.
After the second action-packed episode comedian and former campmate Joel Dommett joined radio presenter Kemi Rogers and Sam Thompson for another dose of I'm A Celebrity... Unpacked. From discussing the tear-jerking moment Barry McGuigan opened up to his campmates about the tragic death of his daughter Danika to bowel cancer to just how grim the camp toilet is - the spin off show leaves no stone unturned.
Kemi Rogers asked the burning question on most people's minds: “How gross is the dunny really, without grossing us out and everyone who’s watching talk us through it.”

Joel, who lost out on the title of King of the Jungle in 2016 when Scarlett Moffatt beat him to the win, said: “It’s quite gross, it really is,” to which Sam replied: “You get used to it but the first time, he is right, people freeze up for the first few days but then when it all lets loose it gets real heavy real fast!” Joel then jokingly said: “You don’t want to be emptying the dunny on day four.”
Sam, 32, said: “Well, you have 12 campmates in there at one point and you have to unscrew the lid so you have to look, I’m sorry this is a bit graphic, but you have to look Kemi at everything in there, and you wouldn't believe the waste that come out.“
Kemi asked how high the level of waste gets in a day, to which Sam confirmed “nearly to the brim”. Joe, 39, described his time on the dunny in the jungle, saying: “You’ve got to take a peep, because you’re like ‘I think that’s Carol Vorderman’s’”
Sam added: “The wild thing is you know who went last as well because they’ll come back from the dunny.” At which point Corrie star Colson Smith asked if the dunny has a lock, to which Sam replied: “No, it’s just a cloth. Colson, let me tell you something big guy, when you’re in there and you’re hunkering down the terror you have of someone, because you can see steps coming towards you, you shout 'taken' because you know they’re going to come in.”
Colson replied: “In Big Brother we couldn’t lock the doors so I used to take all my clothes off and put them outside the door to make it clear that I was in there.” Joel then shared how he used to use the camp toilet, saying: “We used to put a log outside and that was our thing of, like, it was engaged.”
