Unless they are completely stupid they went in with a complete understanding of the kinds of things that they would be asked to do.
I disagree. They may have known, from previous series, that they would have tasks, shopping and nominations to do but I don't believe they had any idea at all that they may have to spend weeks without an inside toilet, cold showers and live on lentils and chickpeas to the practical exclusion of anything else.

You're probably right about it being nothing like being in prison. In prison they at least have access to hot water, inside loos and a more fully balanced diet. They also have access to music, TV and radio.

I think the house divide certainly made those stranded on the 'poor' side feel like prisoners and I don't blame them.
