I'm A Celebrity bosses speak out after viewers notice contestant 'smoking' on camera

Eagle-eyed I'm A Celebrity viewers have had their questions answered about whether contestants can smoke on camera.

Viewers of the hit ITV show were asking the question after one campmate was caught smoking right in the middle of the camp, reports Birmingham Live.

Former EastEnders star, and current star in Call The Midwife, Cliff Parisi was a late arrival to the show and has been spotted "smoking" by viewers - but ITV have confirmed this is not against the rules.

ITV has confirmed that Cliff was using a nicotine inhalator and bosses have said any stars are allowed to smoke in camp if they so wish.

One person reported on Twitter: "Was Cliff just smoking?? Thought cigarettes weren't allowed #ImACeleb."

ITV released a statement last year confirming campmates are allowed to smoke, but that they had to put it out on the camp fire.

ITV's ban on smoking only applies to ITV2 show Love Island, where on-screen smoking was banned last year. Any Islanders who wish to smoke have to do so off camera.
