JUST three days into I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! and contestant Gino D’Acampo has renamed his new jungle home Knocker Camp.

The excitable Italian TV chef said wherever he looks “there are massive knockers everywhere” after female contestants stripped down to bikinis.

Former glamour model Katie Price, 31, who entered the jungle on Monday night, sent temperatures soaring as she took a shower in a bright red frilly number yesterday.

Meanwhile, trim and toned Strictly Come Dancing’s Camilla Dallerup, 35, ex-model Samantha Fox, 43, and actress Lucy Benjamin, 39, have all been showing off their gym-honed bodies.

“I bet guys are in their element looking at all the eye candy in here,” Katie pointed out.

The model was singled out by viewers to complete a gruelling Bushtucker trial, shown last night, which saw her facing her fear of being trapped under water.

The task, called Deathly Burrows, involved the model entering tiny underground chambers, each one filled with spiders, cockroaches and, eventually, water.

Katie, who said she once almost drowned as a child, was forced to pull out of the trial after becoming scared she wouldn’t be able to breathe.

She was yanked out of the water by the show’s on-hand medic and looked visibly shaken and upset afterwards.

“I feel absolutely gutted that I couldn’t get more stars,” she told the show’s hosts Ant and Dec as she dried off. “All I remember is I was swimming and I felt I was being dragged under and they had to pull me out of the water and my legs were numb and it was as if they were paralysed,” she said.

“I know it’s in my head but I can’t break that barrier. Gutted.”

Asked why she thought the public had voted for her to do the trial, she replied: “Because they want to see me suffer, obviously.”

The model looks set for a hard time in the Australian jungle. She met her now ex-husband Peter Andre there in 2004 and admitted yesterday: “I keep expecting Pete to walk past.

“I’ve been married, had kids, and been divorced. It’s all over. The whole circle and I’m back here. So weird.”
