A veteran Oscars seat filler revealed the strict rules including paying your own way to LA, no phones allowed, you can only talk to celebrities if they speak to you first (so no chatting up Brad Pitt), no eating or drinking anything during the entire ceremony, and you have to get up immediately when someone important wants their seat back. Tim's convinced they must wear nappies because they can't leave to go to the toilet, and Ricki would never survive as a seat filler because she can't follow any of those rules.
