I’m a Celebrity viewers left infuriated over second elimination announcement

I’m a Celebrity viewers have been left furious by Ant and Dec’s surprise revelation about the second elimination.

On Saturday (30 November), the latest episode of the ITV reality series aired, showing fans what happened in the aftermath of the first eviction.

Loose Women star Jane Moore was voted off the show in the previous night’s outing – and those tuning in were excited to find out which celebrity would be following close behind.

However, at the start of the latest episode, hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly announced that there would be no eviction, revealing that all celebrities would remain in the jungle until Sunday (1 December) at least.

Many were left frustrated by this news as they were hoping to see another star get booted out of the jungle. One fan wrote on X/Twitter: “Ffs no one is leaving? Do oneee” and another added: “WDYM NOBODY IS LEAVING TONIGHT?!?!”

But there was a contingent of viewers who were angry for a particular reason.

After Ant and Dec dropped the bombshell, there was a flurry of messages from viewers complaining that they would have to endure another episode of Radio 1 star Dean McCullough, who has become this year’s most divisive campmate.

“Oh, I was hoping Dean would be leaving tonight,” one person wrote, with another adding: “No vote out today... so stuck with Dean for another day.”

Someone else chimed in: “We’re stuck with Dean for another 24 hours?”

McCullough has found himself at the centre of several clashes in the jungle.

Earlier this week, he was criticised by McFly singer Danny Jones and his fellow Radio 1 star Melvin Odoom for never doing any chores in camp. Elsewhere, he had a row with Coronation Street actor Alan Halsall for his poor efforts in collecting water for camp.

I’m a Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! air on ITV1 and ITVX every night at 9pm.
