I was under the impression they were stranded with just the clothes on their backs... but in last night's episode, in the middle of the night, Rupert had on long beige pants... and in the morning, he had on beige shorts, and they were not cut... they had a hem on them... so where did he get them????

*giggles...Lorry...your still thinking Pearl Island. I believe Pearl Island was the only survivor where the contestants were dropped off with only the clothes on their backs.

These guys were dropped off all official like, from a boat. No throwing over this time!! I'm sure they were allowed a few items.

Hello....
Just a thought here, but I didn't see anybody with any personal items when they got off the boat, or at tribal council but I may be wrong.. as for rupert's pants... he may have a pair of those pants that turn into shorts/pants that you zip or button on and off. my hubby has a pair and they are really neat.
That's just my though...

I noticed they were carrying next to nothing when they arrived at camp. However, we've seen lots of them in additional clothing that I don't remember being visible in the arrival shot (long pants, warm shirts, eye glasses, etc). I think production had their stuff waiting for them at camp.

I've read tons of interviews and actually quite a bit of stuff awaits them at camp. First aid kit, tampons, appropriate place to dispose of what little garbage they generate, personal medication or medical devices. Past examples: Christy from the Amazon had everything she needed to care for her hearing aides, and I think she had back ups too for water challanges. Tina said she had a place where her arthiritis meds were kept for her that she could go to take them privately. They just don't show this stuff on TV because it takes away from the mystery. There's lots of info like this availble in old interviews. Lots is hidden from the viewer.

I could have swore that in episode 1 Rupert even mentioned how nice it was to be able to bring along extra cloths this time around. I know in the past they have been allowed extra stuff.

I did notice that noone has said anything about the one personal item they were allowed to bring, my guess is they didn't do that this time around.

Good point Gina, I've always wondered about stuff like that. I guess it's not much of a ratings grabber if they show rudy toting his O2 tank over the side of the boat....

Please don't bite my head off for that comment, I was just using rudy and the O2 as an example!

Didn't Alicia say she brought Twister? TO play and also use as a tarp. But they didn't show it. Or am I hallucinating?

I think in one of the promo articles each of the survivors had a luxuary item listed. But, once the game started we never saw them and RobC just specifically stated in his chat that he didn't get to bring one. He said if he could have, he would have brought his Magic 8 ball again. So, basically I think the article published a list of what they would've brougt if CBS had allowed it.
