The luxurious Leaders’ Lodge boasts two comfy beds with mattresses, shelter from the rain, as well as plush duvets and pillows guaranteed to keep them warm and snug during their jungle stay.

And that’s not all, as always in the jungle, the campmates should expect the unexpected as there’s a hidden twist guaranteed to shake things up which will unlock more power and additional perks than ever before for the camp leaders.
The challenge revelation comes after on Wednesday hosts Ant and Dec couldn’t contain their excitement as they fell to the floor after casting their eyes on the jungle for the first time this year.
While rumours have swirled for months about the stars set to be jetting to Australia for a three-week stay in the rat-infested camp, first look snaps earlier this week gave fans a full glimpse at the lineup.
