REVEREND RICHARD COLES

The remaining I’m A Celeb stars look stony-faced as they battle for a place in the final in a first look at the next BushTucker Trial after livid fans slammed the immunity twist for ‘ruining the show’. 

On Thursday, Danny Jones, 38, Maura Higgins, 33, Oti Mabuse, 34, and Coleen Rooney, 38, will go head-to-head in Battle Blocks, the final challenge that determines who takes part in the Celebrity Cyclone.

In a sneak peak clip, the campmates can be seen returning to the Arcade Of Doom to take on a new challenge.

All four stars have their game faces on as hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly explained how high the stakes are.

Poised and ready, they make their way into separate booths where they must solve the block puzzles on the wall as they are drenched in jungle slime.

Beneath the puzzles are boxes filled with stomach-churning organ meat, but it is so far unclear how this comes into play during the trial.

Love Island star Maura can be heard squealing as the neon green slime rains down on her, but the others manage to keep their cool as they focus on winning a ticket to the Cyclone.

For many years, the legendary Celebrity Cyclone trial has been a goalpost many stars have tried to reach, and when this series kicked off last month, the latest edition of the challenge appeared to be no different.

However, Joel Dommett revealed that in the build-up to the Celebrity Cyclone, this year’s remaining campmates will go head-to-head for the chance to win immunity from the next two vote-offs, guaranteeing them the chance to take part in the trial.

He explained: ‘Over the next two days, the campmates will be competing for this,’ before holding up an enormous ticket that says Ticket To The Cyclone.

‘Whoever wins this will be safe from the next two vote offs and will be guaranteed a place in the trial everyone wants to do. Celebrity Cyclone!’ he added.

The move didn’t go down well with viewers, and some were quick to accuse bosses of ‘copying Big Brother’ with a twist-heavy format, after that came under fire during the most recent series of the ITV reality show.

Posts on X included: ‘They have ruined it. The series was going perfectly but production had to mess it up like they did with Big Brother. Luckily I don’t mind who wins but we deserve to see certain people on that trial.

‘This is awful. I hope it is won by someone who is very likely to be in the final four anyway;

‘I’m sorry but that should be the viewers choice and a reward for being a fan favourite;

‘No! The public should have the say on who stays; Immunity to get to the cyclone? Oh they defo watch BB; That’s rubbish this year.

‘No, no, no! Cyclone should always be the final 4 as voted by us viewers. What’s the point of us voting if you’re gonna fast-track someone to the final.

‘Come on, I don’t think that is fair or right. It should be who the people vote for! If it’s not broken, don’t fix it!’

I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! airs on ITV and is available to stream on ITVX.
