Viewers of I'm A Celebrity... South Africa are not enjoying the latest series with some admitting that they've 'stopped watching'. Other fans have added that the latest pre-recorded format, which began on April 24, has 'ruined' the popular ITV show.
The series has seen a host of former campmates return, including Clifton's Carol Vorderman and former Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan. The brand new format with no public voting means that the celebrities choose who takes on the trials which then decides who leaves the show.
As reported by Manchester Evening News, fans have been left unhappy as the new format has left 'favourites' leaving the show early. On Wednesday (May 10), Helen Flanagan and Dean Gaffney left the camp after coming last in the 'survival'.

It came after Corrie's Andy Whyment and Georgia Toffolo departed on Monday, followed by Joe Swash in Tuesday's episode after losing their trials. Fans now say they've 'switched off' after becoming unhappy with the show's new format.

@jules5156 agreed: "Stopped watching #ImACeleb," as @Lyncpfc asked: "Anyone else stopped watching #ImACeleb #ImACelebSouthAfrica because of the way people get voted out? It makes no sense to me that people that people who have done virtually nothing have stayed in, I switched off as soon as Andy and Toff went when nobody else would do it."
Other viewers added that the show has been 'ruined'. @StefNelson_ wrote: "I'm a celebrity has been so fun but it's ruined by the public not being able to vote #imaceleb #ImACelebSouthAfrica."
@AnnaKaurr said: "The way they’ve done this I’m a celeb is ridiculous all the good people who deserve to be there are gone! #ImACeleb."
@AdamSmi04869456 claimed: "I’m A Celeb South Africa really is rigged the whole format of it just isn’t working. Pick the worst ones to be in camp. Toff, Dean, Helen and Andy were my final 4 all day long but now that’s been ruined because of a rigged process #ImACelebritysouthafrica #imaceleb."
