Notes

• ^1 Kerri-Anne, as an intruder, had to participate with Domenica in the Unsafe Crackers trial as part of her entry into the camp.
• ^2 Kerri-Anne chose not to participate in the trial, as she said the words "I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!" prior to it beginning. As a result, Aesha had to complete the trial on her own and was only able to keep half the stars she won. Whilst Aesha won all 13 stars, the camp only received 6½ meals worth of dinner.
• ^3 Kerri-Anne and Domenica had an argument at the end of the trial, after Kerri-Anne had refused to participate in the trial's second round, which was an 'all-or-nothing' challenge that all trialists had to complete to win their stars. Kerri-Anne left the trial early and returned to the camp before the rest of the group, where she announced that she was quitting the series and said the words "I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!".
• ^4 Nick, as an intruder, had to participate with Liz in the Cliffhanger trial as part of his entry into the camp.
• ^5 This trial was a prank on the celebrities - as all three attempted it, they received the full eight stars for camp.
