A former I’m A Celeb star has shared some bizarre underwear advice to this year’s campmates.
Most Haunted presenter Yvette Fielding took part in the 2015 series of the ITV show and OG fans may remember her clever underwear trick during the Bushtucker Trials.
Watch below:
Fielding was the third contestant eliminated from the jungle, leaving camp after just 18 days, as Geordie Shore‘s Vicky Pattison went on to be crowned the ‘Queen of the Jungle’.
Now, those who watched I’m A Celeb at the time might recall the now 56-year-old taking part in the Ghost Train Bushtucker Trial.
As the five youngest campmates competed in the challenge, Fielding said: “This challenge was made for me, it’s seriously, I feel at home here.
“I feel I could lie in one of these and spin around all night and I’ve come prepared.

“I’ve bought my own lovely, black knickers they are clean and put on my head to cover my ears so hopefully nothing will be able to crawl in there.”
Recalling her out-of-the-box thinking in a recent interview with the Daily Star, she advised this year’s contestants to do the same.
“I know you think you’ll look stupid but when you’ve got cockroaches crawling in your ear. You’ll be grateful,” she said.
“They’ve got to be big knickers. I do understand that a lot of women will go, ‘Oh no, I’ll look weird.’ But who gives who gives a hoot?
“Just stick them on your head because otherwise you could get something going in your ear and you going to want to get it out. But make sure that you get some black knickers, because it’ll just look like a nice shiny cap.”

She claimed to have also once asked I’m A Celeb hosts Ant and Dec to appear on Most Haunted, adding: “I’ve asked them but I asked them years ago.
“Declan was really up for it, but Ant was like ‘Oh, no, I think he was a bit scared of it. I can’t really remember, but I love taking celebrities that are a little bit sceptical, sullied and cynical, on a ghost hunt and watching the whole character change because what they’re seeing, they’re like, ‘What the hell’s going on?’
“I’ve done so many of them, but every group that I’ve ever worked someone always goes ‘Oh, there’s somebody obviously banging on the door next door’.
“I said, ‘Well, go on, then go and have a look’. And they go and have a look, and there’s nothing there.”
