You feel very vulnerable': Big Bad Bazza struggles with public showering in budgie smugglers on I'm A Celeb while former Hi-5 star Lauren Brant leads the bikini babes, After a few days in the African jungle it was time for the celebrities to clean up on Monday night's episode of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Outta Here!.

But not everyone was happy with the primitive showering situation, which was cold water running into a small and open space.

AFL star Barry Hall particularly seemed to confronted with the conditions, despite years of sharing locker rooms with the boys.

'You feel very vulnerable when you're showering in the open,' the 37-year-old told the camera while sitting in the Tok Tokkie.

The buff former footballer also apologised to the viewers for 'bits and pieces' they might unwittingly see, joking that he'd be keeping it all in check.

Olympic swimmer Leisel Jones sympathised with Barry's perspective, saying: 'I've been around water and open showers for most of my life, if you're not used to it, it can be hard.'

But one person who didn't seem to struggle with the concept, was ex Hi-5 star Lauren Brant.The former children's entertainer even pulled down the straps on her black bikini for a proper clean.

The 25-year-old Maxim magazine covergirl looked comfortable in her own skin as she showed off her toned slim figure.
Merv Hughes, the Australian cricket legend, also seemed at ease with partial nudity as he walked around camp with his red trousers around his ankles in his black boxer briefs.

He proudly told the group he was losing weight to the point his trousers didn't stay up or fit properly.
The 53-year-old with the handlebar moustache also answered all the questions from the group about his grooming regime.
'A few people are a little bit more fascinated by it than they should be but it's good to be known for something' Merv said in Tok Tokkie.

After admitting his wife doesn't know him without it, the cricketing great refused the chance to shave off his famous facial hair - even for the chance to eat pizza and drink beer, despite not having a decent meal in days.
Comedian Joel Creasey helped sort out the food situation for the group by winning ten stars in the Tucker Trial, but it was no easy feat.

After being voted by the public to take part in the Circle of Strife challenge, Joel bravely stuck his hand into five mystery holes in the wall, each holding stars for their meals but also holding a range of creepy crawlies.
There was elephant dung and dung beetles in the first hole, Emperor scorpions in the next, while tarantulas waited inside the third whole.

'I felt something hairy and thought it was my ex!' Joel told co-hosts Julia Morris and Dr Chris Brown, trying to make light of the situation.Then came one of his personal fears - rats.
The comedian pulled out all the stars from inside the hole containing 12 rats inside, which set him up for the finale - the snake.

'I can feel it, it's all over me, it's all over me' he squealed.
'I'm crying like when my ex broke up with me,' he told the hosts searching for all three stars sitting under the snake Joel decided to call Kelly.

The Bondi Vet warned him as he poked around: 'once you've touched rats, the snakes think it's a meal'.
Julia later admitted they had a team on standby as they had expected the non-venomous snake would 'have a go' at him but Joel was unscathed in the challenge other than a little scorpion bite.

'Ten stars and a cuddle from Dr Chris Brown!', Julia congratulated him after completing the challenge.'More stars than the Herald Sun gave my last show!' he joked.

Returning to camp the 24-year-old was jubilant, telling the group: 'I hope you're hungry because I've got ten stars!'
Following squeals of delight from the hungry group, Merv admitted to the cameras that he was impressed with the youngster.

'Before yesterday, I didn't know Joel or who he was to be honest...but he's ripping it at the moment,' he said.
'He's a lot stronger and more prepared than he thinks he is,' Merv added.
The group enjoyed a meal of Wilderbeast with sweet potato and okra.

And while they were hoping there was desert in the treasure chest won by Andrew Daddo and Laura Dundovic, the gang were sorely disappointed when they discovered an electronic bug zapper gifted to them by radio host Kyle Sandilands.
'I wanted Tim Tams!' Leisel said

'Kyle Sandilands has more money than god and that's all he bought us?!' Joel joked, asking for the pic of Kyle from inside the treasure chest to sleep with.

The group will have food on their mind on Tuesday, as Merv and Brady Bunch actress Maureen McCormick are set to have their stomachs churn in the next Tucker Trial - an eating contest named Yuk of the Draw.
I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Outta Here! Australia continues Tuesday 3 February, 7:30pm on Network Ten.
