I’m A Celebrity South Africa was on at a later time on Tuesday night (April 14), with Ant and Dec revealing that, soon, we’ll be getting our first elimination.
Monday night’s episode ended on a cliffhanger, with viewers waiting to find out if the Lions or the Rhinos won the crucial Bushtucker Trial. Harry Redknapp’s Lions – David Haye and Ashley Roberts – went head-to-head with Jimmy Bullard’s Rhinos, campmates Adam Thomas and Craig Charles. But, as Ant and Dec were about to reveal the results of the trial, the ITV show ended.
And, on Tuesday’s show, view had to wait just that little bit longer to find out who won food for their camp…
ITV schedule shake-up hits I’m A Celebrity
I’m A Celebrity South Africa was on a little later on Tuesday night. England Vs Spain aired on ITV1 from 6.30pm, as the Lionesses took part in the Women’s Euros Qualifier. Harry Redknapp would’ve been proud, as the Lionesses stormed to victory.
What happened on I’m A Celebrity?
On Tuesday (April 14), the campmates continued to live in either the Lion or Rhino camp, with Main Camp divided by a wall.
Seann, Beverley, Mo and Sinitta were seen taking on the trial, getting the shock of their lives after seeing Ant and Dec waiting for them high above a cliff. “Oh my god, I don’t like the look of this” said Seann. And he wasn’t wrong.
Ant and Dec explained that they’d all be leaning over the cliff edge, suspended by five individual ropes while asked general knowledge questions. The first celebrity to buzz in with the correct answer got to nominate a fellow opponent to cut one of their ropes. However, if was an incorrect answer, they had to cut one of their own ropes. Once all five ropes had been cut, the celebrities fell from the cliff edge and down into the terrifying abyss below.
So who plunged off the cliff and who emerged victorious? Let’s just say David Haye wasn’t happy and went to bed hungry!
When will the first campmate be eliminated?
But even more exciting than that was news of the first elimination.
As with the previous all-stars series, this year’s South Africa show was pre-recorded. This means viewers are not voting during the episodes. Trial participants are decided within the camp. So too is the star booted off the show. The winner – the star who’ll be named show Legend – will be decided during the live final on April 24.
Last time around, back in 2023, the first elimination of the all-stars series was a double elimination. Then, two stars exited camp that same night. That series started on April 24, 2023. The first elimination came on April 28 – just five days in. This time around, we’re already on episode seven and no one’s left.
However, at the end of Tuesday’s episode, a flash forward showed that the campmates will be waving goodbye to their first campmate in Wednesday’s episode. “It is time for the first celebrity to leave the camp for good,” Dec said in the teaser, to the shocked campmates.
