I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! contestants are faced with all sorts of creepy crawlies during their time in the Jungle.
But most of the time, that’s kept for the challenges – and not so much when they’re back at the campsite. However, for Sam, there wasn’t so much truth in that.
Nigel Farage opened up on his decision to shower completely starkers, and shared the moment he knew he was making sure that he was washing every inch of his body on the daily. He explained to press: “The day before we went in, the doctor told us that personal hygiene was really important.
“They said, ‘you will be in there for a long time and you really need to make sure that you are clean, otherwise things will go wrong’.”

Farage added: “The day I [showered naked], it was lashing with rain. Leeches will crawl up your leg and embed themselves in the warmest part of your body.
“Sam did not shower naked and Sam did not check himself. Sam woke up one morning screaming.
“Sam had it on his a** and the sleeping bag looked like a murder scene. The leech was huge!” The moment had made Nigel adamant that he was going to carry on whipping his pants off.
He added: “To be told to check yourself and to be told you must keep clean – and then to be told you can’t take your pants off in the shower struck me as contradictory. I had a huge row.
“I was told in the interest of taste and respect for the cameraman and women that I shouldn’t be doing this. I said, ‘Go to hell!’ I am doing this for those two reasons and I will check myself for leeches everyday.”
