During the I'm A Celeb final on Sunday night, eagle-eyed fans spotted a spoiler in an early show preview. Hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly unwittingly gave the game away before the tense trial had concluded. As the finale heated up with the win hanging in the balance, some spectators realised that the introductory clip at the episode's start had inadvertently revealed the outcome.
The blunder occurred during a nail-biting moment where Ant and Dec cautioned contestant Danny Jones about potentially disappointing fellow campmates Coleen Rooney and Reverend Richard Coles as he battled with knots. Despite the pressure and a dwindling clock, the task was completed within time, offering a full dinner and a choice drink for each participant. However, astute viewers glimpsed the celebrities with their selected beverages in the teaser, indicating they'd triumphed in the trial, bagging all the stars available.
Fans took to social media to express their observations, with one remarking: "Well I assume they get these final stars since we saw all of them with their drinks in the preview clips at the beginning."
Soap opera devotees were quick to point out a slip-up involving the beverages during a pivotal Emmerdale scene. One astute fan pointed out, "We all saw them with their drinks in the preview, so they probably should of done this first because it just gave it away they do it.", reports the Mirror.
Another chimed in, "Well we saw them toast their drinks in the preview so I assume this trial goes well," while yet another viewer noted, "I wonder if they get their drinks, not like it showed it in the opening titles."
The episode took an unexpected turn when Ant and Dec rocked up to deliver some shocking news that left the campmates reeling. Upon hearing the announcement, one contestant admitted they "didn't expect it" and emotions ran high with one star notably shaken by the revelation.
The plot thickened as show hosts Ant and Dec stepped into the scene to divulge who would be the next to leave, with these moments kicking off Sunday's gripping finale. It was revealed that fan favourite from Strictly Come Dancing, Oti Mabuse, was out of the running, leaving viewers and campmates stunned as she had been a frontrunner to win.
As Oti bid farewell to the camp, Ant and Dec unveiled the final trio of campmates: Coleen, Danny, and Reverend Richard, confirming them as this year’s finalists. The announcement left the three both shocked and elated, with emotions running high—Reverend Richard in disbelief and Coleen moved to tears in the Bush Telegraph.
McFly's Danny admitted, "It feels amazing, I didn't expect this at all." On the other hand, Richard expressed his astonishment: "I can't believe I'm one of the final three! I never thought I would make it this far."
Overwhelmed with emotion, Coleen stepped out to shed some tears, confessing she was "proud" to have reached the finale, as Sunday's show looms where the winner will be revealed.
